Characterisation of the Plasmodium falciparum export complex
Creators: name: Elsworth, Brendan
Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Plasmodium parasites extensively remodel the mammalian host cells they infect, namely the erythrocytes and hepatocytes. This is achieved through exporting hundreds of parasite proteins into the host where they play many virulence related roles including altering membrane permeability to acquire nutrients for rapid growth and for increasing immune evasion. Proteins are secreted from the parasite into the vacuole that surrounds them, where they must then pass across the parasitophorous vacuole membrane (PVM) to gain access to the host cytoplasm. It has previously been shown that a protein complex, the Plasmodium Translocon of EXported proteins (PTEX), is found on the PVM and is most likely the protein translocon responsible for this export process. To validate and further dissect PTEX function, a conditional expression system that utilizes the glmS riboswitch was employed to conditionally knockdown the levels of PTEX150 within parasites. Using this approach, even a relatively low level of PTEX150 knockdown lead to a significant decrease in the ability of the parasites to export proteins across the PVM. This failure of protein export across the PVM arrested growth and eventually caused parasite death. Interestingly, the export of all classes of protein cargoes tested, including PfEMP1, were blocked upon PTEX150 knockdown suggesting PTEX may serve as a single portal for export. This demonstrates the importance of PTEX to the malaria parasite and validates it as a potent drug target, since blocking it would prevent hundreds of exported proteins from reaching their functional destinations. To further investigate the specific function of PTEX150 we performed C-terminal truncations in order to generate a parasite line with a partially defective protein. These lines showed destabilisation of the PTEX complex, suggesting that the C-terminus of PTEX150, while not essential for PTEX function or the absolute binding of the other components, is required for stabilising the PTEX complex. Interestingly, these parasites did not show a defect in either their ability to grow or export proteins. To further investigate the effect of PTEX150 knockdown on parasite health the new permeability pathways (NPPs) were investigated. To do this a novel method was developed to investigate NPP function using luciferase. This method is highly sensitive, reducing the amount of parasites required as well as removing the need to purify parasites from culture. The effect of PTEX150 knockdown on NPPs was unclear using this method. Due to the high sensitivity and ease of this method it was developed as a HTS to discover NPP inhibitors. Using this method the malaria box of 400 compounds was screened. Importantly, two compounds, MMV020439and MMV007571, showed inhibitory activity significantly higher than the control compound NPPB.

description: We propose a quantum representation of binary classification trees with binary features based on a probabilistic approach. By using the quantum computer as a processor for probability distributions, a probabilistic traversal of the decision tree can be realized via measurements of a quantum circuit. We describe how tree inductions and the prediction of class labels of query data can be integrated into this framework. An on-demand sampling method enables predictions with a constant number of classical memory slots, independent of the tree depth. We experimentally study our approach using both a quantum computing simulator and actual IBM quantum hardware. To our knowledge, this is the first realization of a decision tree classifier on a quantum device.

description: The results of a search for new physics in final states with photons and missing transverse energy are reported. The study is based on a sample of proton-proton collisions collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the CMS detector in 2015, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 inverse femtobarns. Final states with two photons and significant missing transverse energy are used to search for supersymmetric particles in models of supersymmetry (SUSY) with general gauge-mediated (GGM) supersymmetry breaking. No excess is observed with respect to the standard model expectation, and the results are used to set limits on gluino pair production and squark pair production in the GGM SUSY framework. Gluino masses below 1.65 TeV and squark masses below 1.37 TeV are excluded at a 95% confidence level.

Year: 2018

description: This study investigates the effect of organizational culture on employees' perceived performance. The aim of this study is to assess and examine the effect of organizational culture on employee performance in Berhan International Bank S.C.. The conceptual framework was designed by treating organizational culture as an independent variable and employee performance as dependent variable. To achieve the objective, six research questions and five hypotheses were formulated. Organizational culture was further expressed using specific culture dimensions such as involvement, consistency, adaptability and mission. Explanatory or causal research design with mixed research approach was applied. The organizational culture questionnaire was adopted from Denison (1990) and the employee performance questionnaire was adopted from Onyango (2014). In order to check the reliability and internal consistency of the questionnaire, cronbach alpha was tested. Furthermore, pilot test was conducted before the distribution of the questionnaires. The data were obtained by an interview and survey questionnaires consisted of 54 statements with five point Likert scale. The study took 250 target population with response rate of 132 respondents. The data were analyzed using SPSS (version 20). Both Descriptive as well as inferential statistics were used to analyze the data and interpret results. According to the results of regression analysis, it can be concluded that 57.6% of variation in employee performance is accountable for organizational culture. Specifically, Consistency and Adaptability sub culture dimensions have a positive and a high significant effect on employees' performance. Based on the research findings and research conclusions, major recommendations such as; employees' capacity development, performance management system, and enhancing internal communication tools were offered for possible consideration by Berhan International Bank S.C.

Investigating the role of brinp1 in zebrafish development
Creators: name: Giousoh, Aminah
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The Membrane Attack Complex - PerForin (MACPF) superfamily is known to have a diverse array of roles in immunity, embryonic development and neural function. BRINPs (Bone Morphogenetic Protein – Retinoic Acid Inducible Neural specific Proteins) are a family of three MACPF domain-containing proteins that are highly expressed during rodent neural development. Each contains a MACPF domain, but the remainder of the molecule has no significant sequence similarity to any other structurally or functionally characterised protein. BRINP orthologues are highly conserved across vertebrates, suggesting they perform essential functions. In rodents, all three Brinps are ubiquitously expressed in the brain at early embryonic stages, with Brinp1 most highly expressed. In postnatal to adult stages Brinp1 expression is restricted to the hippocampus, olfactory bulb, cerebellum and cerebral cortex. Only low expression of Brinp2 and Brinp3 is observed at these stages. In this study, the zebrafish animal model was used to study the function of brinps in the developing brain, and to determine the effect of disrupting their function. A bioinformatic approach was applied to explore the evolutionary relationships between BRINP family members. The locus arrangement of BRINP genes is conserved in mammals and teleosts. Full-length zebrafish orthologues were identified and cloned, and two additional brinp3 paralogues were discovered. Brinp gene expression in zebrafish was reminiscent of the expression in rodents. Expression was unrestricted in the brain at early stages (24 hpf) and localised to specific brain structures in older embryos (48-72 hpf). Expression was also observed in the primordial fin buds. In addition to the broad and overlapping expression pattern of all brinps, brinp1 was exclusively detected in the lateral line primordium. Through morpholino oligonucleotide gene silencing, loss of function of the brinp1 gene was examined and determined to result in pleiotropic defects in the developing embryo. At 48 hpf, embryos exhibited a curved body axis, aberrant neuromast formation and defects in axonal projections in the head and tail. Finally, this study has led to the identification of a pathway in which brinp1 may function. It was possible to reverse the effect of the curved tail and loss of neuromasts by 72 hpf using a Tyrosine kinase B (TrkB) receptor agonist, providing preliminary evidence that brinp1 functions in the BDNF/ TrkB receptor pathway.

description: Supercomputers are complex systems producing vast quantities of performance data from multiple sources and of varying types. Performance data from each of the thousands of nodes in a supercomputer tracks multiple forms of storage, memory, networks, processors, and accelerators. Optimization of application performance is critical for cost effective usage of a supercomputer and requires efficient methods for effectively viewing performance data. The combination of supercomputing analytics and 3D gaming visualization enables real-time processing and visual data display of massive amounts of information that humans can process quickly with little training. Our system fully utilizes the capabilities of modern 3D gaming environments to create novel representations of computing hardware which intuitively represent the physical attributes of the supercomputer while displaying real-time alerts and component utilization. This system allows operators to quickly assess how the supercomputer is being used, gives users visibility into the resources they are consuming, and provides instructors new ways to interactively teach the computing architecture concepts necessary for efficient computing

description: We investigate the thermoelectric current and heat conductance in a chiral Josephson contact on a surface of a 3D topological insulator, covered with superconducting and magnetic insulator films. The contact consists of two junctions of Majorana and Dirac channels next to two superconductors. Geometric asymmetry results in a supercurrent without a phase bias. The interference of Dirac fermions causes oscillations of the electric and heat currents with an unconventional period $2Φ_0=h/e$ as functions of the Aharonov-Bohm flux. Due to the gapless character of Majorana modes, there is no threshold for the thermoelectric effect and the current-flux relationship is non-sinusoidal. Depending on the magnetic flux, the direction of the electric current can be both from the hot to cold lead and vice versa.

description: We show that the anomalous magnetic moment experimental data of muon and electron $(g-2)_{μ,e}$ can be explained simultaneously in simple extensions of the 3-3-1 models consisting of new heavy neutrinos and a singly charged Higgs boson. The heavy neutrinos generate active neutrino masses and mixing through the general seesaw mechanism. They also have non-zero Yukawa couplings with singly charged Higgs bosons and right-handed charged leptons, which result in large one-loop contributions known as \emph{chirally-enhanced} ones. Numerical investigation confirms a conclusion indicated previously that these contributions are the key point to explain the large $(g-2)_{μ,e}$ data, provided that the inverse seesaw mechanism is necessary to allow both conditions that heavy neutrino masses are above few hundred GeV and non-unitary part of the active neutrino mixing matrix must be large enough.

It is common for a peg solitaire puzzle to begin from a symmetric board position, we have computed solvable symmetric board positions for four board shapes. A new idea is to search for board positions which have a unique starting jump leading to a solution. We show many challenging puzzles uncovered by this search technique. Clever solvers can take advantage of the uniqueness property to help solve these puzzles.

description: Using a popular vertex-based model to describe a spatially disordered planar epithelial monolayer, we examine the relationship between cell shape and mechanical stress at the cell and tissue level. Deriving expressions for stress tensors starting from an energetic formulation of the model, we show that the principal axes of stress for an individual cell align with the principal axes of shape, and we determine the bulk effective tissue pressure when the monolayer is isotropic at the tissue level. Using simulations for a monolayer that is not under peripheral stress, we fit parameters of the model to experimental data for Xenopus embryonic tissue. The model predicts that mechanical interactions can generate mesoscopic patterns within the monolayer that exhibit long-range correlations in cell shape. The model also suggests that the orientation of mechanical and geometric cues for processes such as cell division are likely to be strongly correlated in real epithelia. Some limitations of the model in capturing geometric features of Xenopus epithelial cells are highlighted.

The Effect of Organizational Culture on Job Satisfaction in the Ministry of Science and Technology
Creators: name: Mulugeta, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2017

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of organizational culture (hierarchy, market, Clan, adhocracy) on job satisfaction in the Ministry of Science and Technology. A mixed design was employed in this study. The study included 86 employees. Data were collected using questionnaires, interview, and document analysis. Data were analyzed using statistical tools like frequency, percentage, mean, spearman rho correlation coefficient, Mann Whitney U test and Multiple Regression. Moreover, data gathered through interview and document analysis were analyzed in narrative form to complement the quantitative finding. The findings of this study revealed that adhocracy culture was the dominant culture in the Ministry. On top of this, there was positive and moderate relationship between organizational culture and employees' job satisfaction. In addition, the level of employees' job satisfaction was higher in the Ministry. Moreover, 29.6% employees' job satisfaction is explained by organizational culture. On the other hand, there were no relationship between respondents' background characteristics (sex, levels of education, and work experience) and employees' job satisfaction. Based on the findings, it was concluded that the Ministry of Science and Technology had focused on new innovation, risk taking and uniqueness of performance. Such effort is in light with the goals of the Ministry i.e. innovating new ideas and technologies that can contribute for the development of the nation. In line with the above findings and conclusions, the leaders of the Ministry should review employees' job satisfaction from time to time. This is because job satisfaction might lead to employees' commitment and high performance that can enhance the achievement of Ministry's goal.

description: The use of DNA testing as part of police investigative work has increased substantially since its emergence in the 1980s. The objective of this review has been to synthesize the existing evidence on the effectiveness of DNA testing as part of routine police investigative practices compared to other more traditional forms of investigation. We have identified five studies that clearly addressed the effectiveness of DNA testing as part of a criminal investigation to improve criminal justice system outcomes. The evidence suggests that DNA testing has positive value when used to investigate a broad range of crime types. There are caveats. Other than a methodologically sound evaluation in five U.S. jurisdictions, the evidence of the utility of DNA testing for serious violent crimes is based on studies with clear methodological weaknesses.

description: Ischaemic heart disease is the leading case of mortality in Australia and the world. In patients with an acute myocardial infarction time to treatment is a fundamental determinant of infarct size, particularly in those with ST elevation on ECG. Guidelines suggest reperfusion with percutaneous coronary intervention or in some instances thrombolysis. While the notion that ‘time is muscle’ is well known to Cardiologists the traditional focus concentrates on hospital based metrics as evidenced by the development of key performance indicators such as door to balloon time. Improvement in the communication pathways between Emergency departments and Cardiologists has been advocated which also extends to better integration of pre-hospital care in order to minimize treatment delay. This thesis focuses on appropriate treatment of suspected myocardial infarction and the role of reperfusion therapy. It has a particular focus on the role of pre-hospital diagnosis and its integration into more sophisticated treatment pathways, door to balloon time and total ischaemia time. Existing challenges to the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction and suitability for coronary catheterization are also examined.

description: The energy of gravitational waves is a fundamental problem in gravity theory. The existing descriptions for the energy of gravitational waves, such as the well-known Isaacson energy-momentum tensor, suffer from several defects. Due to the equivalence principle, the gravitational energy-momentum can only be defined quasilocally, being associated with a closed spacelike 2-surface bounding a region. We propose a new approach to derive the energy of gravitational waves $directly$ from the quasilocal gravitational energy. Such an approach is natural and consistent with the quasilocality of gravitational energy-momentum.

description: Over the years, growing attention has been given to the phenomenon of trafficking in human beings (THB). Sexual exploitation was until recently by far the most commonly identified feature of THB, followed by forced labour. Many activities to combat trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation have been initiated by numerous supranational, international as well as national organizations. Much is written about these initiatives, but some areas have been neglected. Knowledge on ‘what works’ is in particular limited. The growing attention to THB entails a demand for more information. The severity of the crime and the impact on its victims makes it of utmost importance to gain more insight into the working and effectiveness of anti-trafficking strategies and interventions. The main objective of this review was to assess the presently available evidence on the effects of interventions that aim to prevent and suppress trafficking in human beings.

description: Drug courts are specialized courts in which court actors collaboratively use the legal and moral authority of the court to monitor drug-involved offenders’ abstinence from drug use via frequent drug testing and compliance with individualized drug treatment programs. Drug courts have proliferated across the United States in the past 20 years and been adopted in countries outside the United States. Drug courts also have expanded to non-traditional populations (juvenile and DWI offenders). The objective of this review is to systematically review quasi-experimental and experimental (RCT) evaluations of the effectiveness of drug courts in reducing recidivism, including drug courts for juvenile and DWI offenders. This systematic review critically assesses drug courts’ effects on recidivism in the short- and long-term, the methodological soundness of the existing evidence, and the relationship between drug court features and effectiveness. These findings support the effectiveness of drug courts in reducing recidivism, but the strength of this evidence varies by court type. The evidence finds strong, consistent recidivism reductions in evaluations of adult drug courts. DWI drug courts appear to be strong but this evidence is less consistent, especially in experimental evaluations. More experimental researching assessing the effects of DWI drug courts is clearly needed. For juvenile drug courts, the evidence generally finds small reductions in recidivism. More evaluations of juvenile drug courts, especially experimental and strong quasi-experimental evaluations, are needed.

description: This research looked at the extent to which identified non-financial rewards which are employee recognition, job autonomy, learning and development and supportive work environment are influenced the retention and reduction of employee turnover in Berhanena Selam Printing Enterprise(BSPE). The general objective of the study was to examine the relationship between nonfinancial rewards and employee retention and make recommendations to management of the enterprise on how to effectively retain employees and reduce turnover. The study adopted the cross-sectional survey research design, to investigate the extent to which selected non-financial variables influence employees' retention to either remain or quit an organization. Quantitative research design used and this design was chosen because its findings are generalizable. The target population of the research comprised 114 employees of the surveyed organization by taking all professional employees out of it 89 respondents returned the filled questionnaires. Adopted questionnaire measured on a Likert scale used to collect data from respondents, data obtained was analyzed using statistical package for social sciences. From Descriptive, frequency, mean and standard deviation and from inferential, correlation and multiple regression analysis were used while analyzing data. The result of correlation analysis evidenced non-financial rewards treated in this study has a strong relationship with employee retention. Beta coefficient result showed non-financial rewards studied has a positive influence in bringing variation in employee retention. From the four nonfinancial rewards, the following variables are found to have significantly influenced employee retention in BSPE; job autonomy, learning and development, supportive work environment, whereas employee recognition not found influential factor to employee retention.

description: Law enforcement organizations began to take notice of officer stress during the late 1970s. Stress has been found to not only affect the officers’ job performance, but their personal lives and relationships as well. Because police officers are first responders to potentially stressful situations, their ability to successfully manage stress is critical not only to their own mental health but to the safety of society as a whole. Research has found that police officers who have difficulties coping with stress exhibit maladaptive behavior and personality traits such as aloofness, authoritarianism, cynicism, depersonalization, emotional detachment, suspiciousness, and excessive use of alcohol. High levels of stress can lead to serious physiological (headaches, stomachaches, backaches, ulcers, heart attacks) and psychological (anxiety, depression, flashbacks, and panic attacks) symptoms. Stress among police officers has also been connected to police misconduct and can also have a negative effect on the law enforcement organization due to lawsuits resulting from officers’ performance. Other organizational effects include impaired officer performance, lower productivity, poor morale, poor public relations, labor-management problems, tardiness and missed work, and officer turnover. Law enforcement organizations provide a wide variety of stress management interventions aimed at ameliorating officer stress. The objectives of this systematic review were to identify, retrieve, evaluate and synthesize the available evidence regarding outcomes of stress management interventions provided to veteran police officers and recruits. The review question is: What are the effects of officer stress management interventions on stress outcomes?

description: Deep inelastic scattering of very high-energy neutrinos can potentially be enhanced by the production of a single top quark or charm quark via the interaction of a virtual $W$-boson exchange with a $b$-quark or $s$-quark parton in the nucleon. The single top contribution shows a sharp rise at neutrino energies above 0.5 PeV and gives a cross-section contribution of order 5 percent at 10 PeV, while single charm has a low energy threshold and contributes about 25 percent. Semi-leptonic decays of top and charm give di-muon events whose kinematic characteristics are shown. The angular separation of the di-muons from heavy quark production in the IceCube detector can reach up to one degree. Top quark production has a unique, but rare, three muon signal.
