title: Grenzüberschreitende Verschmelzungen
Creators: name: Rozmusova, Darina
Year: 2012

description: In den letzten Jahren kam es zu einem markanten Aufstieg in der Anzahl der Unternehmenszusammenschlüssen. Trotzdem wäre es falsch zu behaupten, dass die Unternehmensfusionen oder Akquisitionen ein Trend der letzten Jahre ist. Der Prozess der Kapitalzusammenlegung ist der ökonomischen Welt bekannt seit dem Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts. Es ist aber notwendig darauf hinzuweisen, dass die Fusionen und Akquisitionen gerade in den letzten Jahren ihren großen Boom erleben. In den Jahren 1985-1995 hat sich das Gesamtvolumen dieser Transaktionen vierfach erhöht, wobei fast die Hälfte der Fusionen und Akquisitionen im Finanzsektor stattfand. Die Fusionen und Akquisition haben ihren Ursprung in den USA, in den Jahren 1985-1995 kam es zu 58 Tausend Fusionen und Akquisitionen, in der Gesamthöhe von 4,5 Billionen Dollar, wobei nur 40 Prozent außerhalb der USA durchgeführt wurden. Anfang der neunziger Jahre ist gekennzeichnet durch den Fusionsanstieg auch im nichtamerikanischen Raum. Ein der Ziele der Europäischen Union ist das Streben nach dem wirtschaftlichen Zusammenhalten der Mitgliedstaaten. Um deren ökonomische Bindung zu verstärken und die Effektivität des gemeinsamen Marktes zu gewährleisten, müssen der freie Verkehr der juristischen Personen und zugleich deren Niederlassungsfreiheit gesichert werden. Dank dem Single Market Programm der Europäischen Kommission, das zum Ziel den freien Waren-, Dienstleistungs-, Personen- und Kapitalverkehr hatte, hat sich die Anzahl der Fusionen auch in der Europäischen Union wesentlich erhöht. Die Motive für Wahl der grenzüberschreitenden Fusion als einer geeigneten Markteintrittsform sind viele. Die beteiligten Gesellschaften profitieren von den Synergieeffekten, vom Know-How-Transfer, von der günstigeren rechtlichen oder steuerlichen Situation im Land der Nachfolgegesellschaft. Mit der Anzahl der grenzüberschreitenden Fusionen steigt aber auch die Anzahl deren Scheiterns. Die beteiligten Gesellschaften unterschätzen oft die Vorbereitungsphase für die Fusion, so genannte Pre-Merger-Phase, haben überoptimistische Vorstellungen, d.h. sie nehmen nur die Vorteile verbunden mit der Fusion in Betracht, nicht aber deren Nachteile. Um die negativen Überraschungen zu vermeiden, ist in der Pre-Merger Phase die Durchführung einer Due Diligence besonders empfehlenswert. Die Basis des Erfolges einer grenzüberschreitenden Fusion ist ein guter Integrationsprozess, der auch in dieser Arbeit ausführlicher beschrieben wird, vor allem die offene Kommunikation mit den Mitarbeitern, deren Motivation und Einbeziehen in das Integrationsprozess. Da fast die Hälfte der Fusionen im Finanzsektor stattfinden, wurde für den praktischen Teil der Arbeit die Fusion zweier Banken, einer slowakischen und einer tschechischen, gewählt, wobei gerade auf das Integrationsprozess der Fusion gezielt wird. Anhand des 7K-Modells der Integration von Jansen wird bewertet, ob die grenzüberschreitende Fusion in diesem konkreten Fall erfolgreich geschafft wurde.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit ethnologischen Veranstaltungen in den Wiener Volksbildungseinrichtungen zwischen 1920 und 1950. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf Veranstaltungen, die sowohl von Wiener VölkerkundlerInnen, als auch von Personen aus einem nicht-akademischen Umfeld angeboten wurden. Diese Veranstaltungen umfassten Vorträge, Führungen, Kurse und Filmvorführungen, die damals äußerst beliebt und gut besucht waren. Neben einer Auflistung aller erhobenen Veranstaltungen werden exemplarisch auch Personen (aus dem akademischen Umfeld, Hobby-Reisende und andere Personen) und deren Angebot näher beleuchtet. Außerdem soll den Fragen nachgegangen werden, inwiefern die völkerkundliche Volksbildung Einfluss auf Vorstellungen über fremde Kulturen in der Wiener Bevölkerung hatte und ob sie auch als Reflektor gesellschaftlicher und politischer Entwicklungen gesehen werden kann. Die Arbeit besteht aus einem Hauptband und einem Quellenband.
description: The present thesis is concerned with an analysis of ethnological themes in popular education (Volksbildung) in Vienna from 1920 to 1950. The focus is not only on speakers with a formal academic education in Völkerkunde but also on speakers from a non-academic background. Ethnological themes were widely popular during that period and were presented in a variety of formats, like lectures, courses, film screenings and guided tours of ethnological institutions. Based on archival research, an exhaustive list of all collected ethnological events is a central part of this thesis. In addition, several speakers (academics, hobby travellers and others) are portrayed and the themes of their presentations are examined. On a more general level the questions are discussed whether ethnological popular education had an impact on the creation of ideas about foreign people in the public and whether it can be seen as a reflection of social and political issues.

description: Calcareous sponges (Phylum Porifera, Class Calcarea) are known to be taxonomically difficult. Previous molecular studies have revealed many discrepancies between classically recognized taxa and the observed relationships at the order, family and genus levels; these inconsistencies question underlying hypotheses regarding the evolution of certain morphological characters. Therefore, we extended the available taxa and character set by sequencing the complete small subunit (SSU) rDNA and the almost complete large subunit (LSU) rDNA of additional key species and complemented this dataset by substantially increasing the length of available LSU sequences. Phylogenetic analyses provided new hypotheses about the relationships of Calcarea and about the evolution of certain morphological characters. We tested our phylogeny against competing phylogenetic hypotheses presented by previous classification systems. Our data reject the current order-level classification by again finding non-monophyletic Leucosolenida, Clathrinida and Murrayonida. In the subclass Calcinea, we recovered a clade that includes all species with a cortex, which is largely consistent with the previously proposed order Leucettida. Other orders that had been rejected in the current system were not found, but could not be rejected in our tests either. We found several additional families and genera polyphyletic: the families Leucascidae and Leucaltidae and the genus Leucetta in Calcinea, and in Calcaronea the family Amphoriscidae and the genus Ute. Our phylogeny also provided support for the vaguely suspected close relationship of several members of Grantiidae with giantortical diactines to members of Heteropiidae. Similarly, our analyses revealed several unexpected affinities, such as a sister group relationship between Leucettusa (Leucaltidae) and Leucettidae and between Leucascandra (Jenkinidae) and Sycon carteri (Sycettidae). According to our results, the taxonomy of Calcarea is in desperate need of a thorough revision, which cannot be achieved by considering morphology alone or relying on a taxon sampling based on the current classification below the subclass level.
title: Empirische Überprüfung des 3 x 2 Modells der Zielorientierungen und dessen Zusammenhang mit Lernfreude und Langeweile
Creators: name: Harrer, Katharina
Year: 2012

description: In den letzten Jahrzehnten wurden zahlreiche Modelle zu Zielorientierungen entwickelt, die hinsichtlich verschiedener lern- und leistungsrelevanter Variablen untersucht wurden und so maßgeblich zum besseren Verständnis des Konstrukts beigetragen haben. Um das Konstrukt der Zielorientierungen weiter zu präzisieren, entwickelten Elliot, Murayama und Pekrun (2011) kürzlich das 3 x 2 Modell der Zielorientierungen, in welchem Leistungsziele über deren Valenz (Annäherung vs. Vermeidung) und den Evaluationsstandard zur Definition der angestrebten Kompetenz (Aufgabe, Selbst, Fremd) konzeptualisiert wurden. Neben der Überprüfung der faktoriellen Struktur des 3 x 2 Modells lag das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit auch in der Untersuchung der Zusammenhangsstruktur zwischen den Zielorientierungen dieses Modells und den bisher kaum untersuchten Lernemotionen Freude und Langeweile. Des weiteren sollte Aufschluss über die Zusammenhänge zwischen den beiden Lernemotionen und der Prüfungsleistung gewonnen werden. Die Stichprobe umfasste 388 Studierende (82% weiblich) der Psychologie, die unmittelbar nach der Prüfung Forschungsmethoden und Evaluation I bzw. Praxis wissenschaftlichen Arbeitens in einem Online-Fragebogen zu ihren Zielen und Lernemotionen für die gerade abgelegte Prüfung befragt wurden. Die Zielorientierungen wurden dabei mit der deutschen Version des Achievement Goal Questionnairs (AGQ) erhoben, die Lernemotionen mit den Skalen Freude und Langeweile aus dem Achievement Emotion Questionnair (AEQ). Als Leistungsindikator wurde die Punkteanzahl der abgelegten Prüfung herangezogen. Die Überprüfung des 3 x 2 Modells der Zielorientierungen und der Zusammenhangsstrukturen erfolgte in der vorliegenden Arbeit mittels linearer Strukturgleichungsmodelle. Anhand der Ergebnisse einer konfirmatorischen Faktorenanalyse sowie der Werte der Fit-Indizes konnten die faktorielle Struktur des 3 x 2 Modells und die vergleichsweise gute Modellpassung bestätigt werden. Entgegen den Erwartungen standen ausschließlich Selbst-Ziele mit Lernemotionen in Beziehung, wobei Selbst-Annäherungsziele positiv und Selbst-Vermeidungsziele negativ mit Lernfreude korrelierten. Weiters konnten in der vorliegenden Untersuchung wider Erwarten keine signifikanten Zusammenhänge zwischen den Lernemotionen Freude bzw. Langeweile und der Prüfungsleistung festgestellt werden. Die Ergebnisse der vorliegenden Arbeit sprechen insgesamt für die Bedeutsamkeit und den potentiellen Erkenntnisgewinn, der durch die weitere wissenschaftliche Untersuchung des 3 x 2 Modells der Zielorientierungen für die Lehrpraxis gewonnen werden kann.

description: Initiation of RNA polymerase (Pol) II transcription requires assembly of the pre-initiation complex (PIC) at the promoter. In the classical view, PIC assembly starts with binding of the TATA box-binding protein (TBP) to the TATA box. However, a TATA box occurs in only 15% of promoters in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, posing the question how most yeast promoters nucleate PIC assembly. Here we show that one third of all yeast promoters contain a novel conserved DNA element, the GA element (GAE), that generally does not co-occur with the TATA box. The distance of the GAE to the transcription start site (TSS) resembles the distance of the TATA box to the TSS. The TATA-less TMT1 core promoter contains a GAE, recruits TBP, and supports formation of a TBP-TFIIB-DNA-complex. Mutation of the promoter region surrounding the GAE abolishes transcription in vivo and in vitro. A 32-nucleotide promoter region containing the GAE can functionally substitute for the TATA box in a TATA-containing promoter. This identifies the GAE as a conserved promoter element in TATA-less promoters.

description: The nonapeptide oxytocin (OXT) and its receptor (OXTR) have been implicated in social cognition, empathy, emotion and stress regulation in humans. Previous studies reported associations between OXT and OXTR genetic polymorphisms and risk for disorders characterized by impaired socio-emotional functioning, such as schizophrenia and autism. Here we investigate the influence of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the OXTR gene on a measure of socio-emotional functioning in schizophrenic patients. OXTR SNPs that were previously investigated in other studies were genotyped in 145 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia according to DSM-IV and 145 healthy controls matched for age and gender. The Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) was used to assess cognitive ('perspective taking'), affective ('empathic concern') and self-related ('personal distress') dimensions of empathy. No group differences in genotype frequencies were observed. MANCOVA revealed a significant main (F [1,282] = 10.464; p<0.01) and interaction effect (genotype by diagnosis: F [1,282] = 4.329; p<0.05) of OXTR SNP rs2254298(A>GG) with 'empathic concern'. Within the schizophrenia group, linear regression analysis determined OXTR rs2254298 genotype, PANSS negative and general symptom score, and age of disease onset as being significantly associated with 'empathic concern'. OXTR rs2254298 significantly impacted PANSS general psychopathology scores. No associations were found for OXTR rs53576, IRI 'perspective taking' or 'personal distress' ratings. Our preliminary findings support hypotheses about an involvement of OXTR rs2254298 in emotional empathy in schizophrenic and healthy individuals, warranting independent replication.

description: Transposable elements are major constituents of eukaryote genomes and have a great impact on genome structure and stability. They can contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of organisms. Knowledge of their distribution among several genomes is an essential condition to study their dynamics and to better understand their role in species evolution. LTR-retrotransposons have been reported in many diverse eukaryote species, describing a ubiquitous distribution. Given their abundance, diversity and their extended ranges in C-values, environment and life styles, crustaceans are a great taxon to investigate the genomic component of adaptation and its possible relationships with TEs. However, crustaceans have been greatly underrepresented in transposable element studies. Using both degenerate PCR and in silico approaches, we have identified 35 Copia and 46 Gypsy families in 15 and 18 crustacean species, respectively. In particular, we characterized several full-length elements from the shrimp Rimicaris exoculata that is listed as a model organism from hydrothermal vents. Phylogenic analyses show that Copia and Gypsy retrotransposons likely present two opposite dynamics within crustaceans. The Gypsy elements appear relatively frequent and diverse whereas Copia are much more homogeneous, as 29 of them belong to the single GalEa clade, and species- or lineage-dependent. Our results also support the hypothesis of the Copia retrotransposon scarcity in metazoans compared to Gypsy elements. In such a context, the GalEa-like elements present an outstanding wide distribution among eukaryotes, from fishes to red algae, and can be even highly predominant within a large taxon, such as Malacostraca. Their distribution among crustaceans suggests a dynamics that follows a "domino days spreading" branching process in which successive amplifications may interact positively.

description: Sleep enhances memory consolidation. Bearing in mind that food intake produces many metabolic signals that can influence memory processing in humans (e.g., insulin), the present study addressed the question as to whether the enhancing effect of sleep on memory consolidation is affected by the amount of energy consumed during the preceding daytime. Compared to sleep, nocturnal wakefulness has been shown to impair memory consolidation in humans. Thus, a second question was to examine whether the impaired memory consolidation associated with sleep deprivation (SD) could be compensated by increased daytime energy consumption. To these aims, 14 healthy normal-weight men learned a finger tapping sequence (procedural memory) and a list of semantically associated word pairs (declarative memory). After the learning period, standardized meals were administered, equaling either â¼50% or â¼150% of the estimated daily energy expenditure. In the morning, after sleep or wakefulness, memory consolidation was tested. Plasma glucose was measured both before learning and retrieval. Polysomnographic sleep recordings were performed by electroencephalography (EEG). Independent of energy intake, subjects recalled significantly more word pairs after sleep than they did after SD. When subjects stayed awake and received an energy oversupply, the number of correctly recalled finger sequences was equal to those seen after sleep. Plasma glucose did not differ among conditions, and sleep time in the sleep conditions was not influenced by the energy intake interventions. These data indicate that the daytime energy intake level affects neither sleep's capacity to boost the consolidation of declarative and procedural memories, nor sleep's quality. However, high energy intake was followed by an improved procedural but not declarative memory consolidation under conditions of SD. This suggests that the formation of procedural memory is not only triggered by sleep but is also sensitive to the fluctuations in the energy state of the body.

description: Integrating non-viral vectors based on transposable elements are widely used for genetically engineering mammalian cells in functional genomics and therapeutic gene transfer. For the Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposase system it was demonstrated that convergent transcription driven by the SB transposase inverted repeats (IRs) in eukaryotic cells occurs after somatic integration. This could lead to formation of double-stranded RNAs potentially presenting targets for the RNA interference (RNAi) machinery and subsequently resulting into silencing of the transgene. Therefore, we aimed at investigating transgene expression upon transposition under RNA interference knockdown conditions.To establish RNAi knockdown cell lines we took advantage of the P19 protein, which is derived from the tomato bushy stunt virus. P19 binds and inhibits 21 nucleotides long, small-interfering RNAs and was shown to sufficiently suppress RNAi. We found that transgene expression upon SB mediated transposition was enhanced, resulting into a 3.2-fold increased amount of colony forming units (CFU) after transposition. In contrast, if the transgene cassette is insulated from the influence of chromosomal position effects by the chicken-derived cHS4 insulating sequences or when applying the Forg Prince transposon system, that displays only negligible transcriptional activity, similar numbers of CFUs were obtained.In summary, we provide evidence for the first time that after somatic integration transposon derived transgene expression is regulated by the endogenous RNAi machinery. In the future this finding will help to further improve the molecular design of the SB transposase vector system.

description: The Salmonella type III secretion system (T3SS) efficiently translocates heterologous proteins into the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. This leads to an antigen-specific CD8 T-cell induction in mice orally immunized with recombinant Salmonella. Recently, we have used Salmonella's T3SS as a prophylactic and therapeutic intervention against a murine fibrosarcoma. In this study, we constructed a recombinant Salmonella strain translocating the immunogenic H-2D(b)-specific CD8 T-cell epitope VILTNPISM (KDR2) from the murine vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2). VEGFR2 is a member of the tyrosine protein kinase family and is upregulated on proliferating endothelial cells of the tumor vasculature. After single orogastric vaccination, we detected significant numbers of KDR2-tetramer-positive CD8 T cells in the spleens of immunized mice. The efficacy of these cytotoxic T cells was evaluated in a prophylactic setting to protect mice from challenges with B16F10 melanoma cells in a flank tumor model, and to reduce dissemination of spontaneous pulmonary melanoma metastases. Vaccinated mice revealed a reduction of angiogenesis by 62% in the solid tumor and consequently a significant decrease of tumor growth as compared to non-immunized mice. Moreover, in the lung metastasis model, immunization with recombinant Salmonella resulted in a reduction of the metastatic melanoma burden by approximately 60%.

description: The cyclic nucleotides cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) are important second messengers and are potential biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD).Here, we investigated by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of cAMP and cGMP of 82 patients and evaluated their diagnostic potency as biomarkers. For comparison with a well-accepted biomarker, we measured tau concentrations in CSF of CJD and control patients. CJD patients (n = 15) had lower cAMP (-70%) and cGMP (-55%) concentrations in CSF compared with controls (n = 11). There was no difference in PD, PD dementia (PDD) and ALS cases. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses confirmed cAMP and cGMP as valuable diagnostic markers for CJD indicated by the area under the curve (AUC) of 0.86 (cAMP) and 0.85 (cGMP). We calculated a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 64% for cAMP and a sensitivity of 67% and specificity of 100% for cGMP. The combination of both nucleotides increased the sensitivity to 80% and specificity to 91% for the term cAMPxcGMP (AUC 0.92) and to 93% and 100% for the ratio tau/cAMP (AUC 0.99).We conclude that the CSF determination of cAMP and cGMP may easily be included in the diagnosis of CJD and could be helpful in monitoring disease progression as well as in therapy control.

description: This paper aims to identify the effect of political exclusion on social capital in Colombia, suggesting social capital as an important channel through which political inequality has been central for Colombian economic development. I use the Colombian National Front agreement during 1958-1974 to test my hypothesis, as it institutionalized the political exclusion of non-traditional parties in that country. Whereas it affected all regions at the same time, it implied differential effects according to the municipalities’ initial political diversity. The empirical strategy deals with the potential endogeneity in the variation of the treatment by using region fixed effects and relevant control variables in a cross-section model, as well as performing robustness checks. I further use panel fixed effects models with electoral turnout as a measure of social capital. I find that political exclusion imposed by the National Front may have led to less trusting individuals today, to a higher perception of free riding behaviors and to lower levels of electoral turnout. I also find that a possible channel through which political exclusion in the past may be able to explain social capital in the present is distrust towards the state.

Tudor-SN

description: Tudor-SN is a conserved RNA binding protein in eukaryotes. The Tudor-SN consists of two structures, the 4SN module and the Tsn module. The 4SN module consists of four staphylococcus nuclease (SN) domains located at the N-terminal region. The Tsn module is composed of a Tudor domain and a partial SN domain located at the C-terminal side. A recent study revealed that these two modules of OsTudor-SN have different binding properties. The 4SN module has RNA and protein binding activities, while the Tsn module has protein binding activity. Although both modules bind to proteins, they bind to different groups. These observations point to the possibility that the 4SN and the Tsn modules may have biological significance on their own. To determine whether the two modules have distinct roles in governing gene expression, the developing seed transcriptomes of OsTudor-SN mutant lines, EM1084, 43M and PMT64 and wildtype were obtained and analyzed. Compared to wildtype there are 1865, 1450, and 954 differentially expressed genes in 43M, EM1084, and PMT64, respectively. Among these, 78 genes are present in all OsTudor-SN mutant lines. The expression of storage protein mRNAs in the three mutant lines were not identical. 43M and PMT64 showed elevated expression of cysteine-rich prolamins while EM1084 displayed decreased expression of cysteine poor prolamins. Many genes involved in translation, especially those coding for ribosomal proteins were elevated in 43M. The mutation at the SN3 in EM1084 altered the expression of genes involved in carbohydrate metabolic process and membrane vesicle-mediated transport. The mutation at the Tudor domain in PMT64 mainly affects carbohydrate metabolic process.
title: Untersuchung auf Zytotoxizität der Pflanzen Dianthus versicolor F. und Potentilla anserina L.
Creators: name: Schmid, Claudia

description: Die Heilpflanzen Dianthus versicolor FISCH und Potentilla anserina L. wurden anhand von zytotoxischen Tests geprüft. Dianthus versicolor F. wächst in der Mongolei und wird in der traditionellen mongolischen Medizin schon lange als Heilmittel eingesetzt. Neben entzündungshemmenden Wirkungen, wird es unter anderem bei der Behandlung von Harnwegsinfektionen, gegen Lebererkrankungen sowie als Kontraktionsmittel der Gebärmutter verwendet. Potentilla anserina L. ist sehr weit verbreitet und aufgrund seiner Inhaltsstoffe werden der Pflanze viele positive Eigenschaften zugeschrieben. Ziel war es nun herauszufinden, ob die Extrakte und Fraktionen zytotoxisch wirken können und ob die Konzentration als auch die Inkubationszeit eine Rolle für das Zellwachstum spielen. Caco-2 Zellen wurden für 6 h, 24 h und 48 h, mit 5 unterschiedlichen Konzentrationen der Extrakte und Fraktionen, inkubiert. Mit steigender Konzentration und längerer Inkubationsdauer führte die Droge von Dianthus versicolor zur Abnahme des Zellwachstums. Die Extrakte von Potentilla anserina zeigten keine zytotoxische Wirkung. Eine negative Auswirkung auf das Zellwachstum konnte bei den Fraktionen und dem Rohextrakt von Potentilla anserina nur teilweise nachgewiesen werden. Es ist nicht ausschließen, dass auch Heilpflanzen in hohen Konzentrationen eine toxische Wirkung besitzen können.

description: This paper proposes and empirically implements a framework for analyzing industry competition and the degree of joint profit maximization of merging firms in differentiated product industries. Using pre- and post-merger industry data, I am able to separate merging firms' intra-organizational pricing considerations from industry pricing considerations. The insights of the paper shed light on a long-standing debate in the theoretical literature about the consequences of organizational integration. Moreover, I propose a novel approach to directly estimate industry conduct that relies on ownership changes and input price variation. I apply my framework using data from the ready-to-eat cereal industry, covering the 1993 Post-Nabisco merger. My results show an increasing degree of joint profit maximization of the merged entities over the first two years after the merger, eventually leading to almost full maximization of joint profits. I find that between 14.3 and 25.6 percent of industry markups can be attributed to cooperative industry behavior, while the remaining markup is due to product differentiation of multi-product firms.
