Towards an integrated platform for gene network inference and validation
Creators: name: Maimari, Nataly
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2015

description: The prevalent pathology leading to high mortality from cardiovascular disease is atherosclerosis. Despite strong evidence for the association of shear stress and the site-specificity of atherosclerosis initiation, there is a lack of treatment focusing on modulating shear stress-induced phenotypes in endothelial cells. The overarching theme of the thesis is to uncover the causal molecular networks that are activated by mechanical forces in endothelial cells. We present an integrated platform for gene network inference and validation, which integrates network inference from gene expression data with functional genomics within a single framework to set up an iterative cycle of measurement and network refinement. In order to achieve this, a number of technological innovations were necessary and developed. We present an approach, named ARNI, to logically model and construct through abductive reasoning, regulatory gene networks from gene expression profiles and background prior knowledge on gene functions and interactions. We demonstrate the improved predictive power and complexity of our inferred network topologies compared with those generated by other non-symbolic inference approaches. A bioinformatics workflow for the integration of gene expression profiles across platforms and species is presented and applied for generating an integrated endothelial cell mechanoresponsive gene expression profile. The integrated dataset identified >1600 genes to be shear responsive, more than any other study, and in this gene set all known mechanosensitive genes and pathways were present. We also present the first high-throughput RNAi platform to demonstrate successful reverse electroporation of mammalian primacy cell lines and which couples RNAi screening with mechanotransduction studies. Each step of the assemblage is evaluated and effective loss-of-function is demonstrated for multiple gene targets. The tools presented in this thesis provide the basis for developing qualitative models and targeted therapies, in order to further our pursuit for shear-mediated atherosclerosis prevention.

Structural basis of antibacterial peptide transport across membranes
Creators: name: Mathavan, Indran
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2015

description: Microcins are gene encoded antibacterial peptides secreted by enterobacteria in the gastrointestinal tract and play an important role in the control of bacterial populations. They present an attractive prospect in our effort to minimize the problem of bacterial drug resistance. Microcin J25 (MccJ25) is a 2 kDa plasmid encoded, ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptide comprised of 21 amino acid residues. MccJ25 undergoes post-translational modification and has a unique lasso structure. McjD, an ABC exporter, confers immunity to the producing strains by exporting the mature MccJ25 out of the cell. Studies have been designed to look into the transport mechanism of this peptide, which uses the siderophore receptor FhuA and ABC transporter McjD. MccJ25 uses the Trojan horse strategy by hijacking the iron import machineries as a mode of transport into the cell and acts as a transcription inhibitor by binding to RNA polymerase. Iron is an important nutrient for bacteria cell survival. To date, there is limited structural evidence on the import and extrusion mechanism of this antimicrobial peptide in Gram-negative bacteria. We have obtained a high-resolution structure of MccJ25 with its outer membrane receptor FhuA at 2.3 Å. FhuA is monomeric 22-strand antiparallel ß-barrel protein with the N-terminal domain folded inside to form a plug domain. MccJ25 binds to FhuA with hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with the extracellular loops of FhuA and its plug domain. We have also identified key residues that might play a role in MccJ25 translocation. Overall the structure provides information on how MccJ25 hijacks the iron uptake pathway to get into bacteria. Ligand binding studies and biochemical analysis demonstrate the functionality of McjD and its interaction with its natural ligand, MccJ25. The high substrate specificity and known cavity make McjD an excellent model for interaction studies.

description: We introduce pointwise measure expansivity for bi-measurable maps. We show through examples that this notion is weaker than measure expansivity. In spite of this fact, we show that many results for measure expansive systems hold true for pointwise systems as well. Then, we study the concept of mixing, specification and chaos at a point in the phase space of a continuous map. We show that mixing at a shadowable point is not sufficient for it to be a specification point, but mixing of the map force a shadowable point to be a specification point. We prove that periodic specification points are Devaney chaotic point. Finally, we show that existence of two distinct specification points is sufficient for a map to have positive Bowen entropy.

description: In the frame of the algebraic Riemann Rotational Model one computes the longitudinal, transverse and toroidal multipoles corresponding to the excitations of low-lying levels in the ground state band of several even-even nuclei by inelastic electron scattering (e,e'). Related to these transitions a new quantity, which accounts for the deviations from the Siegert theorem, is introduced. The intimate connection between the nuclear vorticity and the dynamic toroidal quadrupole moment is underlined. Inelastic differential cross-sections calculated at backscattering angles shows the dominancy of toroidal form-factors over a broad range of momentum transfer.

description: We report on the epitaxial growth and the characterization of thin FePt films and the subsequent patterning of magnetic lattice structures. These structures can be used to trap ultracold atoms for quantum simulation experiments. We use Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) to deposit monocrystalline FePt films with a thickness of 50 nm. The films are characterized with X-ray scattering and Mossbauer spectroscopy to determine the long range order parameter and the hard magnetic axes. A high monocrystalline fraction was measured as well as a strong remanent magnetization of M = 900 kA/m and coercivity of 0.4 T. Using Electron Beam Lithography (EBL) and argon ion milling we create lattice patterns with a period down to 200 nm, and a resolution of 30 nm. The resulting lattices are imaged in a Scanning Electron Microscope in cross-section created by a Focused Ion Beam. A lattice with continuously varying lattice constant ranging from 5 micrometer down to 250nm has been created to show the wide range of length scales that can now be created with this technique.

The 2-year RXTE ASM database reveals significant power at ~72 days. Similar behaviour was seen in the 6-year Ariel 5 ASM database, but at a period of ~63 days. The timescales and light curves resemble the ~78 days modulation seen in Cyg X-2 and we therefore interpret this modulation in GX 354-0 as a super-orbital effect.

A relationship between strengths associated with both pieces of $ΛNN$ force giving exact experimental $Λ$-seperation energy has been obtained which then combined with our previous study on $^{17}_{\,\,Λ}$O hypernucleus determines a unique and acceptable set of strength parameters for $ΛNN$ potential. The $ΛNN$ force is found important for the core polarization.

The effects of progressive heart failure on the Na/K ATPase and intracellular calcium regulation
Creators: name: Ke, Hung-Yen
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: The aim of this thesis is to investigate the effects of progressive heart failure on the function of the Na/K ATPase and intracellular calcium regulation. Progressive heart failure was induced in male guinea pigs by constriction of the ascending aorta. Sham operations were carried out on the control group. Hearts were harvested and used for various experiments at 30, 60, and 150 days after the aortic constriction operation. Echocardiography was performed on unanaesthetized guinea pigs to monitor in vivo changes of contractile function. Significantly smaller fractional shortening was noted after aortic constriction although this remained stable during the progression of disease until the 150 day end point when fractional shortening decreased greatly and circulatory insufficiency presented. Heart weight : body weight ratio increased 60 days after the operation, but the lung weight : body weight ratio only increased at the 150 day end point. Electrophysiological measurements of action potential duration (APD), Ca transients, SR Ca content, and Na/K ATPase current were performed to investigate alterations of Ca regulation during the progression of heart failure using enzymatically isolated ventricular cardiac myocytes. In end-stage heart failure, APD remained prolonged and the function of other mechanisms all declined. These results supported the view that compensated hypertrophy developed at 60 days after aortic constriction, and decompensation with end stage heart failure occurred about 150 days after the operation. At the compensated hypertrophy stage, only Na/K ATPase pump function declined but other mechanisms were enhanced or were the same as the situation prior to the constriction. These results suggested that alteration of Na/K ATPase function might assist the compensation phase and may trigger the decompensatory progression. Since t-tubule remodelling was also observed early in the heart failure progression in other study, we used membrane staining with wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) to investigate the change of t-tubule density and regularity in guinea pigs with heart failure. Our results showed a decrease in density and disorganization with regular but narrower intervals of t-tubule arrangement. Immunocytochemical staining of the α1 and α2 isoforms of the Na/K ATPase was further carried out to study their distribution in the sarcolemma when the heart fails. The results showed decreased expression of both α1 and α2 isoforms, which is compatible with our functional findings of Na/K ATPase pump current decline. Furthermore, corresponding to WGA membrane staining, α2 isoforms were found to colocalize with t-tubules. These finding suggested that alteration of Na/K ATPase pump function occurs early in the progression of hypertrophy toward heart failure, and α2 isoforms may play a more prominent role in regulating Ca handling.

description: The effects of short-range correlations derived from a realistic meson-exchange potential on the single-particle density matrix in finite nuclei are investigated by analyzing the one-body density in terms of the natural orbits. Basic features of these natural orbits and their spectral distributions are discussed. For many observables it seems to be sufficient to approximate the one-body density matrix in terms of those natural orbits, which exhibit the largest occupation probabilities. For the investigation of the high-momentum components in the single-particle density, however, it is important to take into account natural orbits with small occupation probabilities, originating from the single-particle Green function at large negative energies.

description: Soft X-ray Transients (SXRTs) have long been suspected to contain old, weakly magnetic neutron stars that have been spun up by accretion torques. After reviewing their observational properties, we analyse the different regimes that likely characterise the neutron stars in these systems across the very large range of mass inflow rates, from the peak of the outbursts to the quiescent emission. While it is clear that close to the outburst maxima accretion onto the neutron star surface takes place, as the mass inflow rate decreases, accretion might stop at the magnetospheric boundary because of the centrifugal barrier provided by the neutron star. For low enough mass inflow rates (and sufficiently short rotation periods), the radio pulsar mechanism might turn on and sweep the inflowing matter away. The origin of the quiescent emission, observed in a number of SXRTs at a level of ~10^(32)-10^(33) erg/s, plays a crucial role in constraining the neutron star magnetic field and spin period. Accretion onto the neutron star surface is an unlikely mechanism for the quiescent emission of SXRTs, as it requires very low magnetic fields and/or long spin periods. Thermal radiation from a cooling neutron star surface in between the outbursts can be ruled out as the only cause of the quiescent emission. We find that accretion onto the neutron star magnetosphere and shock emission powered by an enshrouded radio pulsar provide far more plausible models. In the latter case the range of allowed neutron star spin periods and magnetic fields is consistent with the values recently inferred from the properties of kHz QPO in LMXRBs. If quiescent SXRTs contain enshrouded radio pulsars, they provide a missing link between X-ray binaries and millisecond pulsars.

Functional characterisation of genes involved in cell wall metabolism from the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana
Creators: name: Chairam, Issariya
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: The plant cell wall is a complex and dynamic structure, involved in interaction with the environment, cell-cell interactions as well as plant growth and development. Although structure and architecture of the walls have been studied extensively, knowledge regarding the mechanisms required to generate the complexity and control dynamic changes of the walls is limited. In order to improve our understanding, this study employs a combination of genetic, molecular and biochemical methods to characterize the functions of three candidate genes, At1g65610, At3g44990 and At1g07260. They encode a putative membrane-bound endo-1,4-β-glucanase (KORRIGAN2), a putative xyloglucan endo-transferase/hydrolase (XTH31) and a putative UDP-glycosyltransferase (UGT71C3) from Arabidopsis thaliana. The expression of the candidate genes changes in response to treatment with the cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor isoxaben. Plants with loss of gene activity of the target genes show only subtle growth phenotypes under standard growth conditions. However, cell wall analysis of stems from mature plants found distinct differences between the mutant plants and their wild type controls. In addition, my research showed that during early stage phenotypes, germination, root growth and isoxaben hypersensitivity phenotypes were observed in korrigan2 and xth31 seedlings. Interestingly, ugt71c3 seedlings exhibited early germination phenotypes but no effects on root growth. In parallel, it was found that all mutant seedlings tested produce more ectopic lignin upon isoxaben treatment than wild type controls. These results show that the genes characterized are involved in cell wall metabolism and are required for the growth as well as the response to cell wall damage simulated by isoxaben treatment.

Water distribution networks with dynamic topology
Creators: name: Wright, Robert John
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2015

description: The subdivision of water distribution networks (WDN) into zones, known as district metered areas (DMAs), is a popular approach to leakage management used by water companies. The DMAs are formed by permanently closing isolation valves at the boundaries of each zone (known as boundary valves). By forming discrete zones in the WDN, leakage estimates can be made at night when demand is low, which is used to prioritise pipe repair and replacement programmes. However, the permanent closure of boundary valves has also caused several disadvantages, including reduced network resilience to failure, sub-optimal pressure management, and water quality problems. This thesis introduces a novel approach to the operational management of WDNs, where DMAs are dynamically aggregated for improved network resilience, pressure management and water quality, and segregated for leakage monitoring at night. This is facilitated by replacing closed boundary valves with self-powered, remote control valves (dynamic boundary valves). The operation of a dynamic topology can therefore successfully eliminate the disadvantages of conventional DMAs, whilst retaining or improving their success in leakage monitoring. The investigation is carried out both analytically and experimentally on a real, operational UK network supplying approximately 8,000 properties in order to establish the benefits and challenges of the proposed approach. An extensive review of the current and emerging forms of pressure and DMA management from around the world is carried out. A case study using a real large scale network (3,148km of pipeline) demonstrates the current state of DMAs and their conformity to DMA design guidelines, and identifies how a dynamic DMA topology can improve network performance. A novel resilience index (the Reserve Capacity) is then used in the design of the dynamic DMA topology in the experimental programme. The analytical and experimental investigation has demonstrated a 27% reduction in leakage using a dynamic DMA topology over the most common approach to pressure management, and strong improvements in network resilience to failure where 1,400 customers maintained a supply during a real, major burst incident that would otherwise have been disconnected. In order to actuate near optimal control in the experimental programme, a novel optimisation algorithm based on sequential convex programming (SCP) is proposed for the control of valves. The SCP method takes advantage of computationally efficient solvers that facilitate prompt and reliable convergence. The algorithm also includes the development of a novel, convex valve model that can be integrated into efficient null space algorithms. In order to actuate the control, a novel approach for valve control in DMAs with dynamic topology is proposed, where time varying flow modulation curves are used based on the dynamic connectivity of DMAs.

description: A previous spectroscopic study identified the very massive O2 III star VFTS 16 in the Tarantula Nebula as a runaway star based on its peculiar line-of-sight velocity. We use the Gaia DR2 catalog to measure the relative proper motion of VFTS 16 and nearby bright stars to test if this star might have been ejected from the central cluster, R136, via dynamical ejection. We find that the position angle and magnitude of the relative proper motion (0.338 +/- 0.046 mas/yr, or approximately 80 +\- 11 km/s) of VFTS 16 are consistent with ejection from R136 approximately 1.5 +/- 0.2 Myr ago, very soon after the cluster was formed. There is some tension with the presumed age of VFTS 16 that, from published stellar parameters, cannot be greater than 0.9 +0.3/-0.2 Myr. Older ages for this star would appear to be prohibited due to the absence of He I lines in its optical spectrum, since this sets a firm lower limit on its effective temperature. The dynamical constraints may imply an unusual evolutionary history for this object, perhaps indicating it is a merger product. Gaia DR2 also confirms that another very massive star in the Tarantula Nebula, VFTS 72 (alias BI253; O2 III-V(n)((f*)), is also a runaway on the basis of its proper motion as measured by Gaia. While its tangential proper motion (0.392 +/-0.062 mas/yr or 93 +/-15 km/s) would be consistent with dynamical ejection from R136 approximately 1 Myr ago, its position angle is discrepant with this direction at the 2$σ$ level. From their Gaia DR2 proper motions we conclude that the two ~100 solar mass O2 stars, VFTS 16 and VFTS72, are fast runaway stars, with space velocities of around 100 km/s relative to R136 and the local massive star population. The dynamics of VFTS16 are consistent with it having been ejected from R136, and this star therefore sets a robust lower limit on the age of the central cluster of ~1.3 Myr.

We combine the measured central projected stellar velocity dispersions of these galaxies with the self-similar radial profiles of the rms velocity and of the Gauss-Hermite moment h_4 observed in nearby galaxies for 0 < R < 2 R_eff. For Q0957+561, we find a 16% uncertainty in the galaxy mass, and formal 2-sigma limits on the Hubble constant of H_0 = (61 +13/-15) km/s/Mpc. For PG 1115+080, we find that none of the viable lens models can be ruled out, so that H_0 is not yet strongly constrained by this system.

Investigation of bacterial cellulose production in genetically modified Escherichia coli
Creators: name: Buldum, Gizem
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2015

description: Cellulose is the major biopolymer on earth with tremendous economic importance as it has been utilised in a multitude of industrial applications including tissueengineering products, composite materials and electronics. It exhibits outstanding physical and mechanical properties when compared to plant-based cellulose. Although A. xylinum is the most efficient producer of bacterial cellulose (BC), its long doubling time results in insufficient yields and high cost. In this study, a novel and functional BC production system was developed by recombinant DNA technology. The simultaneous expression of bacterial cellulose synthase operon (bcsABCD) and its upstream operon (cmcax and ccpAx) was achieved by pBCS and pCDF, respectively. Three different Escherichia coli strains were utilised as host microorganisms: E. coli BL21 (DE3), E. coli HMS174 (DE3) and E. coli C41 (DE3). It was verified that bcsABCD and the upstream operon were successfully cloned and expressed in E. coli strains. Fermentation of genetically modified (GM) strains was conducted at various IPTG concentrations (0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 mM) and various temperatures (22, 30, and 37 °C). BC production was achieved by genetically modified E. coli HMS174 (DE3) in the presence of 0.025 mM IPTG at 22°C. GM E. coli C41 (DE3) accomplished the production when IPTG supplement was lower than 0.2 mM at 22°C or 30°C. The products were characterised by SEM and FTIR, which exhibited that morphology of product was stain-specific. Finally a dynamic mathematical model was developed to design a fed-batch system capturing characteristics incorporating acetate inhibition and cell death, which allowed predicting glucose consumption, acetate production and induction time for batch cultures, resulted in a volumetric productivity of 1.7 mg/L.h. In conclusion, this thesis reports the development of a novel BC production system by creating valuable cellulose-producing E. coli strains, resulting in a reproducible and stable recombinant expression system for potential improvement of BC.

description: The theory of the elastic scattering of a nucleon from a nucleus is presented in the form of a Spectator Expansion of the optical potential. Particular attention is paid to the treatment of the free projectile$\,-\,$nucleus propagator when the coupling of the struck target nucleon to the residual target must be taken into consideration. First order calculations within this framework are shown for neutron total cross-sections and for proton scattering for a number of target nuclides at a variety of energies. The calculated values of these observables are in very good agreement with measurement.

description: Neutrinoless double beta decay can significantly help to shed light on the issue of non-zero neutrino mass, as observation of this lepton number violating process would imply neutrinos are Majorana particles. However, the underlying interaction does not have to be as simple as the standard neutrino mass mechanism. The entire variety of neutrinoless double beta decay mechanisms can be approached effectively. In this work we focus on a theoretical description of short-range effective contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay, which are equivalent to 9-dimensional effective operators incorporating the appropriate field content. We give a detailed derivation of the nuclear matrix elements and phase space factors corresponding to individual terms of the effective Lagrangian. Using these, we provide general formulae for the neutrinoless double beta decay half-life and angular correlation of the outgoing electrons.

Galaxy Distances in the Nearby Universe: Corrections For Peculiar Motions

description: By correcting the redshift--dependent distances for peculiar motions through a number of peculiar velocity field models, we recover the true distances of a wide, all-sky sample of nearby galaxies (~ 6400 galaxies with velocities cz<5500 km/s), which is complete up to the blue magnitude B=14 mag. Relying on catalogs of galaxy groups, we treat ~2700 objects as members of galaxy groups and the remaining objects as field galaxies. We model the peculiar velocity field using: i) a cluster dipole reconstruction scheme; ii) a multi--attractor model fitted to the Mark II and Mark III catalogs of galaxy peculiar velocities. According to Mark III data the Great Attractor has a smaller influence on local dynamics than previously believed, whereas the Perseus-Pisces and Shapley superclusters acquire a specific dynamical role. Remarkably, the Shapley structure, which is found to account for nearly half the peculiar motion of the Local Group, is placed by Mark III data closer to the zone of avoidance with respect to its optical position. Our multi--attractor model based on Mark III data favors a cosmological density parameter Omega ~ 0.5 (irrespective of a biasing factor of order unity). Differences among distance estimates are less pronounced in the ~ 2000 - 4000 km/s distance range than at larger or smaller distances. In the last regions these differences have a serious impact on the 3D maps of the galaxy distribution and on the local galaxy density --- on small scales.

SPH Simulations of Counterrotating Disk Formation in Spiral Galaxies

Year: 1998

description: We present the results of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations of the formation of a massive counterrotating disk in a spiral galaxy. The current study revisits and extends (with SPH) previous work carried out with sticky particle gas dynamics, in which adiabatic gas infall and a retrograde gas-rich dwarf merger were tested as the two most likely processes for producing such a counterrotating disk. We report on experiments with a cold primary similar to our Galaxy, as well as a hot, compact primary modeled after NGC 4138. We have also conducted numerical experiments with varying amounts of prograde gas in the primary disk, and an alternative infall model (a spherical shell with retrograde angular momentum). The structure of the resulting counterrotating disks is dramatically different with SPH. The disks we produce are considerably thinner than the primary disks and those produced with sticky particles. The time-scales for counterrotating disk formation are shorter with SPH because the gas loses kinetic energy and angular momentum more rapidly. Spiral structure is evident in most of the disks, but an exponential radial profile is not a natural byproduct of these processes. The infalling gas shells that we tested produce counterrotating bulges and rings rather than disks. The presence of a considerable amount of preexisting prograde gas in the primary causes, at least in the absence of star formation, a rapid inflow of gas to the center and a subsequent hole in the counterrotating disk. In general, our SPH experiments yield stronger evidence to suggest that the accretion of massive counterrotating disks drives the evolution of the host galaxies towards earlier (S0/Sa) Hubble types.

description: An extended version of the pseudo-SU(3) model which includes both spin and proton-neutron degrees of freedom is used to study the influence of the pairing interaction on K-band mixing, B(E2) values and quadrupole moments. Using the asymmetric rotor model as a backdrop, specific consequences of a many-particle shell-model based description of these collective properties are demonstrated and fundamental limits of the collective model's approach are investigated. Finally, the pseudo-SU(3) model, including representation mixing induced by pairing, is used to calculate the energies of 140Ce and the results are compared to experimental data and other theories.

description: As many-body Floquet theory becomes more popular, it is important to find ways to connect theory with experiment. Theoretical calculations can have a periodic driving field that is always on, but experiment cannot. Hence, we need to know how long a driving field is needed before the system starts to look like the periodically driven Floquet system. We answer this question here for noninteracting band electrons in the infinite-dimensional limit by studying the properties of the system under pulsed driving fields and illustrating how they approach the Floquet limit. Our focus is on determining the minimal pulse lengths needed to recover the qualitative and semiquantitative Floquet theory results.
