zur Vierteljahresschrift für Sozial- und Wirtschaftsgeschichte
(herausgegeben von Hermann Aubin) erschienene Studie „Sephardim an
der unteren Elbe“ kann wohl als ein zentraler Beitrag zur
hamburgisch-jüdischen Geschichte in der frühen Nachkriegszeit
gelten. Ihr Autor Hermann Kellenbenz war einer der einflussreichsten
deutschen Wirtschaftshistoriker seiner Generation. Er beschäftigte
sich in seinem 600 Seiten umfassenden Werk mit der wirtschaftlichen
Bedeutung der sefardischen Juden, die zu Beginn des 16. Jahrhunderts
aus Spanien vertrieben und in Hamburg aufgenommen worden waren. Der
Ursprung der Publikation geht allerdings auf die NS-Zeit zurück, als
Kellenbenz einen Forschungsauftrag des „Reichsinstituts für
Geschichte des neuen Deutschlands“ erhalten hatte. Im Vorwort wird
dies – für die Zeit wenig überraschend – verschleiert.

description: Patent searching is a complex task and is mainly performed by experts in the field. Research shows that the integration of drawings into the search process is considered useful by experts and should therefore play a more important role in patent retrieval. In this study, experts were interviewed to find out when and in what form patent drawings should be integrated into the search process. The study combines qualitative data analysis and techniques from requirements engineering resulting in the context sensitive method called Q-rEx.Analysis. The interviews were analysed with a mixed form of deductive and inductive category formation and combined with standards of patent retrieval systems. Experts want patent drawings to be more integrated in the search process to better analyse the relevance of patents. Therefore, in this study, requirements for innovative visual patent retrieval have been derived from actual user needs. The method presented in this study contributes to transparent and comprehensible user-centred elicitation of requirements regarding innovative visual patent retrieval. Not only the method needs further testing but also the integration of the requirements must be evaluated in additional user research.

description: One of the most peculiar characteristics of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is their variability over all wavelengths. This property has been used in the past to select AGN samples and is foreseen to be one of the detection techniques applied in future multi-epoch surveys, complementing photometric and spectroscopic methods. In this paper, we aim to construct and characterise an AGN sample using a multi-epoch dataset in the r band from the SUDARE-VOICE survey. Our work makes use of the VST monitoring program of an area surrounding the Chandra Deep Field South to select variable sources. We use data spanning a six month period over an area of 2 square degrees, to identify AGN based on their photometric variability. The selected sample includes 175 AGN candidates with magnitude r < 23 mag. We distinguish different classes of variable sources through their lightcurves, as well as X-ray, spectroscopic, SED, optical and IR information overlapping with our survey. We find that 12% of the sample (21/175) is represented by SN. Of the remaining sources, 4% (6/154) are stars, while 66% (102/154) are likely AGNs based on the available diagnostics. We estimate an upper limit to the contamination of the variability selected AGN sample of about 34%, but we point out that restricting the analysis to the sources with available multi-wavelength ancillary information, the purity of our sample is close to 80% (102 AGN out of 128 non-SN sources with multi-wavelength diagnostics). Our work thus confirms the efficiency of the variability selection method in agreement with our previous work on the COSMOS field; in addition we show that the variability approach is roughly consistent with the infrared selection.

description: Studies on the information practices in a cooperative context are rare. Yet, issues of access, sharing or retention of information are crucial. This study investigates how professionals in a global digital entertainment company define their information source horizon and the factors that influence them. Using Savolainen’s information horizon methodology, we conducted an exploratory study based on interviews organised at the Montreal studio during which our 29 participants had to place their sources of information on mind maps.Analysis. Quantitative data was collected and analysed on participants' preferences for information sources. We also employed grounded theory techniques to review our interview transcripts using NVivo software. We propose a new categorisation of sources and confirm the typology of Savolainen’s criteria. The results revealed that coopetition and technological contexts shaped information practices of gameworkers. The results of our study on the informational practices of gameworkers could find application in strategic information and knowledge management.

description: The (6-4) photolyase catalyzes the photoreversal of the (6-4) dipyrimidine photoproducts induced in DNA by ultraviolet light. Using the cloned Drosophila melanogaster (6-4) photolyase gene, we overproduced and purified the recombinant enzyme. The binding and catalytic properties of the enzyme were investigated using natural substrates, T[6-4]T and T[6-4]C, and the Dewar isomer of (6-4) photoproduct and substrate analogs s5T[6-4]T/thietane, mes5T[6-4]T, and the N-methyl-3'T thietane analog of the oxetane intermediate. The enzyme binds to the natural substrates and to mes5T[6-4]T with high affinity (KD approximately 10(-9)-10(-10) M) and produces a DNase I footprint of about 20 base pairs around the photolesion. Several lines of evidence suggest that upon binding by the enzyme, the photoproduct flips out of the duplex. Of the four substrates that bind with high affinity to the enzyme, T[6-4]T and T[6-4]C are repaired with relatively high quantum yields compared with the Dewar isomer and the mes5T[6-4]T which are repaired with 300-400-fold lower quantum yield than the former two photoproducts. Reduction of the FAD cofactor with dithionite increases the quantum yield of repair. Taken together, the data are consistent with photoinduced electron transfer from reduced FAD to substrate, in a manner analogous to the cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer photolyase.

description: The human XPF-ERCC1 protein complex is one of several factors known to be required for general nucleotide excision repair. Genetic data indicate that both proteins of this complex are necessary for the repair of interstrand cross-links, perhaps via recombination. To determine whether XPF-ERCC1 completes a set of six proteins that are sufficient to carry out excision repair, the human XPF and ERCC1 cDNAs were coexpressed in Sf21 insect cells from a baculovirus vector. The purified complex contained the anticipated 5' junction-specific endonuclease activity that is stimulated through a direct interaction between XPF and replication protein A (RPA). The recombinant complex also complemented extracts of XP-F cells and Chinese hamster ovary mutants assigned to complementation groups 1, 4, and 11. Furthermore, reconstitution of the human excision nuclease was observed with a mixture of five repair factors (XPA, XPC, XPG, TFIIH, and RPA) and the recombinant XPF-ERCC1, thus verifying that no additional protein factors are needed for the specific dual incisions characteristic of human excision repair.

To this end we consider a non-equilibrium system as part of a larger isolated system which includes the environment. We prove that the Schnakenberg formula provides only a lower bound to the actual entropy production in the environment. This is also demonstrated in the simplest example of a three-state clock model.

Regulation of Inosine-5′-monophosphate Dehydrogenase Type II Gene Expression in Human T Cells: ROLE FOR A NOVEL 5′ PALINDROMIC OCTAMER SEQUENCE

description: Expression of the gene encoding human inosine- 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) type II, an enzyme catalyzing the rate-limiting step in the generation of guanine nucleotides, is increased more than 10-fold in activated peripheral blood T lymphocytes and is required for T cell activation. We have examined the 5'-regulatory sequences that are important for the transcriptional regulation of this gene in T cells. DNase I mapping of genomic DNA identified a hypersensitive element near the transcription initiation site. Fine mapping by in vivo footprinting demonstrated five transcription factor binding sites that are occupied in both resting and activated peripheral blood T lymphocytes; these are tandem CRE motifs, a Sp1 site, an overlapping Egr-1/Sp1 site, and a novel palindromic octamer sequence (POS). The tandem CRE and POS sites are of major functional importance as judged by mutational and electrophoretic mobility shift analyses. These data provide evidence that expression of the human IMPDH type II gene is predominantly regulated by the nuclear factors ATF-2 and an as yet unidentified POS-binding protein. Additional major protein-DNA interactions do not occur within the promoter region after T lymphocyte activation, indicating a requirement for additional protein-protein interactions and/or post-translational modifications of pre-bound transcription factors to account for the observed increase in IMPDH type II gene expression.

description: Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder, triggered by the ingestion of dietary gluten.The diagnosis of CD is often delayed or missed because of lack of recognition as the disease presentation in adults is highly variable and may be asymptomatic. Two main mechanisms are involved in pathologic bone alterations in CD: intestinal malabsorption and chronic inflammation.Various rheumatologic manifestations are observed in CD such as synovitis, enthesitisans back pain. A strict gluten-free diet is an effective treatment for many of the extraintestinal manifestations of CD, including osteo-articular manifestations.
description: La maladie cœliaque (MC) est une maladie auto- immune provoquée par le gluten alimentaire. Le diagnostic est souvent raté ou retardé du fait de son expression clinique très variable chez l’adulte, ou même silencieuse. Deux principaux mécanismes sont impliqués dans les altérations du tissu osseux: la malabsorption intestinale et l’inflammation chronique. Des manifestations rhumatologiques sont observées dans la MC telles que les synovites, les enthésites et les lombalgies. Un régime sans gluten strict est un traitement efficace pour la plupart des manifestations extra-intestinales, y compris les manifestations ostéo-articulaires.

description: The effects of ionic composition and strength on rabbit skeletal muscle Ca2+ release channel (ryanodine receptor) activity were investigated in vesicle-45Ca2+ flux, single channel and [3H]ryanodine binding measurements. In <0.01 microM Ca2+ media, the highest 45Ca2+ efflux rate was measured in 0.25 M choline-Cl medium followed by 0.25 M KCl, choline 4-morpholineethanesulfonic acid (Mes), potassium 1,4-piperazinediethanesulfonic acid (Pipes), and K-Mes medium. In all five media, the 45Ca2+ efflux rates were increased when the free [Ca2+] was raised from <0.01 microM to 20 microM and decreased as the free [Ca2+] was further increased to 1 mM. An increase in [KCl] augmented Ca2+-gated single channel activity and [3H]ryanodine binding. In [3H]ryanodine binding measurements, bell-shaped Ca2+ activation/inactivation curves were obtained in media containing different monovalent cations (Li+, Na+, K+, Cs+, and choline+) and anions (Cl-, Mes-, and Pipes-). In choline-Cl medium, substantial levels of [3H]ryanodine binding were observed at [Ca2+] <0.01 microM. Replacement of Cl- by Mes- or Pipes- reduced [3H]ryanodine binding levels at all [Ca2+]. In all media, the Ca2+-dependence of [3H]ryanodine binding could be well described assuming that the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor possesses cooperatively interacting high-affinity Ca2+ activation and low-affinity Ca2+ inactivation sites. AMP primarily affected [3H]ryanodine binding by decreasing the apparent affinity of the Ca2+ inactivation site(s) for Ca2+, while caffeine increased the apparent affinity of the Ca2+ activation site for Ca2+. Competition studies indicated that ionic composition affected Ca2+-dependent receptor activity by at least three different mechanisms: (i) competitive binding of Mg2+ and monovalent cations to the Ca2+ activation sites, (ii) binding of divalent cations to the Ca2+ inactivation sites, and (iii) binding of anions to specific anion regulatory sites.
High-mass twins & resolution of the reconfinement, masquerade and hyperon puzzles of compact star interiors

description: We aim at contributing to the resolution of three of the fundamental puzzles related to the still unsolved problem of the structure of the dense core of compact stars (CS): (i) the hyperon puzzle: how to reconcile pulsar masses of $2\,$M$_\odot$ with the hyperon softening of the equation of state (EoS); (ii) the masquerade problem: modern EoS for cold, high density hadronic and quark matter are almost identical; and (iii) the reconfinement puzzle: what to do when after a deconfinement transition the hadronic EoS becomes favorable again? We show that taking into account the compositeness of baryons (by excluded volume and/or quark Pauli blocking) on the hadronic side and confining and stiffening effects on the quark matter side results in an early phase transition to quark matter with sufficient stiffening at high densities which removes all three present-day puzzles of CS interiors. Moreover, in this new class of EoS for hybrid CS falls the interesting case of a strong first order phase transition which results in the observable high mass twin star phenomenon, an astrophysical observation of a critical endpoint in the QCD phase diagram.

description: Web search is a common activity in a mobile context. However, the nature of performing tasks in a mobile environment means there is the risk interruption. While the effects of interruptions on mobile search have been studied in recent years, the nature of such interruptions occurring in real-world mobile settings have not. Using a diary study approach, we collected data from 20 participants on the everyday interruptions they faced conducting mobile web searches over a 10-day period. We used inductive open coding to categorise the nature of the interruptions assigning each interruption to a category/sub-category combination. We then used a deductive coding approach to classify each interruption as being either internally or externally-induced; and mobile or non mobile-specific. We found a broad range of interruptions, which we have organised into an extensive taxonomy. Further, a substantial proportion of the interruptions are externally-induced and more than half are unique to mobile contexts. The empirical evidence of the nature of mobile search interruptions in our findings provide insight into the complex environment of mobile search, information upon which to base future mobile search studies (e.g., surveys, controlled laboratory studies), and motivation for the study of search interface designs that can help mitigate the effects of such interruptions.

description: The paper reports selective findings from a broader study about information behaviour in the context of the pottery hobby as a form of serious leisure. Among all the information activities in this context, the paper focuses on the affective and emotional aspects of information sharing. The Serious Leisure Perspective (SLP) is the theoretical framework of the study. The required data were collected via a purposeful and criteria-based sampling method. A sample of user-generated content (UGC) on YouTube was collected to form the dataset. The collected data were analysed through inductive content analysis to identify patterns of embedded concepts and themes in the dataset.Results. Seven categories were identified. These categories summarise the major emotional reactions that viewers expressed and shared in their comments: (1) amazement, (2) excitement, (3) gratitude, (4) joyfulness, (5) admiration, (6) serenity, (7) inspiration. The overall ambience of the videos and commenters’ reactions were positive and joyful. The paper concludes that information sharing on a popular hobby via a publicly available platform, like YouTube, can evoke a range of positive emotions and establish social bonds. These social ties are the building blocks to form communities of interest and communities of practice to produce and share information on the chosen activity.

description: Technische Mechanik; 38; 3; 286-299; ISSN 2199-9244
description: Polycrystalline materials are widely used in engineering and material science applications, e.g. automobile, aerospace or renewable energy. The macroscopic defects are generally strongly influenced by the fracture behavior of the polycrystalline materials at meso- and microscopic level. In this paper, the proposed phase-field model for anisotropic fracture, which accounts for the preferential cleavage directions within each randomly oriented crystal, as well as an anisotropic material behavior with cubic symmetries, has been used to simulate the complex crack pattern in solar-grade polycrystalline silicon. Furthermore, the proposed phase-field model allows to distinguish the loading under tension and compression. The finite element implementation of the model has been realized by using a monolithic solution scheme. Three representative numerical examples are carried out, i.e. anisotropic crack propagation (i) in a sole material, (ii) in a bi-material with different crack orientation and (iii) in multi-grains with randomly distributed anisotropy. It is demonstrated that the proposed phase-field model is capable of characterizing fracture propagation in anisotropic solids under static loading.

description: Catalysis of guanine nucleotide formation from IMP in the de novo purine synthetic pathway is carried out by two isoforms of the enzyme inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) that are catalytically indistinguishable but are encoded by separate genes. In order to assess the potential for cell type-specific expression of IMPDH activity, we have characterized the IMPDH type I gene and identified three major RNA transcripts that are differentially expressed from three different promoters. A 4.0-kilobase pair (kb) mRNA containing 1.3 kb of 5'-untranslated region is expressed in activated peripheral blood lymphocytes and to a far lesser extent in cultured tumor cell lines. The P1 promoter that regulates the transcription of this mRNA has a high degree of sequence identity to an Alu repetitive sequence. A transcript of 2.7 kb is found in a subset of the tumor cell lines examined, whereas a 2.5-kb mRNA species is universally expressed and is the prevalent mRNA in most cell lines and tissues. The relative strengths of the three promoter regions and the effects of variable extents of 5'-flanking sequence on the P3 promoter differ in Jurkat T, as compared with Raji B lymphoid cell lines, demonstrating a complex cell type-specific transcriptional regulation of IMPDH type I gene expression.

description: We investigate the microscopic dynamics at the initial stage of photoinduced phase transitions in tetrathiafulvalene-$p$-chloranil by exact diagonalization. We first show that the one-dimensional extended Peierls-Hubbard model exhibits a neutral phase with small ionicity and negligible dimerization and an ionic phase with moderate ionicity and dimerization. Aside from these phases, we find a doubly ionized phase with strong dimerization that we call the "dipole" phase. These ground-state phases are characterized by various order parameters and the Zak phase, which is relevant to electronic polarization. We further explore the microscopic dynamics of the three phases triggered by short monocycle optical pulses. The electronic order parameters and lattice displacement suggest that the neutral-ionic, ionic-neutral, and dipole-ionic transitions are induced. Furthermore, clear spectroscopic changes are observed in the time-dependent spectral density and pump-probe conductivity. A detailed analysis of the spectroscopy demonstrates the generation of coherent charge-transfer strings via multiphoton absorption and the crucial roles of the excited states and the metastable ground state at the new lattice position for the ultrafast dynamics.

description: Interagency government data sharing (IDS) is an indispensable precondition for the development of citizen-centred smart government. Adopting a theory of territoriality, this paper reports on an on-going research investigation, which explores, identifies, and qualifies the barriers to the lack of IDS.Methods. The research adopts an inductive approach, which combines a critical literature review, and three case studies in Central China. 118 articles, and 45 government officials and data managers from three regional government agencies collected as interview data were included and analysed using a thematic approach. Interorganisational dynamism affects the formulation of individual agencies’ psychological ownership on data, which leads to territorial marking and defending behaviours against IDS. Territoriality theory offers a novel and useful perspective to interpret, understand and resolve IDS problems. Albeit this research is situated in China, the research findings offer valuable indications and insights that can be shared across international borders.

description: The development of 5G networks has rapidly increased the use of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices for control, monitoring, and processing purposes. Biometric-based user authentication can prevent unauthorized access to IIoT devices, thereby safeguarding data security during production. However, most biometric authentication systems in the IIoT have no template protection, thus risking raw biometric data stored as templates in central databases or IIoT devices. Moreover, traditional biometric authentication faces slow, limited database holding capacity and data transmission problems. To address these issues, in this paper we propose a secure online fingerprint authentication system for IIoT devices over 5G networks. The core of the proposed system is the design of a cancelable fingerprint template, which protects original minutia features and provides privacy and security guarantee for both entity users and the message content transmitted between IIoT devices and the cloud server via 5G networks.Compared with state-of-the-art methods, the proposed authentication system shows competitive performance on six public fingerprint databases, while saving computational costs and achieving fast online matching.

description: We constructed a double-stranded plasmid containing a single cis, syn-cyclobutane thymine dimer (T[c,s]T) 385 base pairs from the center of the SV40 origin of replication. This circular DNA was replicated in vitro by extracts from several types of human cells. The dimer was placed on the leading strand template of the first replication fork to encounter the lesion. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of replication intermediates documented the transient arrest of the replication fork by the dimer. Movement of the replication fork beyond the dimer was recognized by the appearance of a single fork arc in DNA sequences located between the T[c,s]T and the half-way point around the circular template (180 degrees from the origin). Upon completion of plasmid replication, the T[c,s]T was detected by T4 endonuclease V in about one-half (46 +/- 9%) of the closed circular daughter molecules. Our results demonstrate that extracts prepared from HeLa cells and SV40-transformed human fibroblasts (SV80, IDH4), including a cell line defective in nucleotide-excision repair (XPA), were competent for leading strand DNA synthesis opposite the pyrimidine dimer and replication fork bypass. In contrast, dimer bypass was severely impaired in otherwise replication-competent extracts from two different xeroderma pigmentosum variant cell lines.

description: This research seeks to contribute to a more equitable higher education experience in Australia through developing understandings about quality in Indigenous teacher education. This investigation is based on the learning journeys shared by three graduate teachers from Batchelor Institute of Indigenous Tertiary Education in the Northern Territory of Australia. The teacher education programs in which the graduates studied have been closely examined in terms of curriculum, as well as enrolments and progressions. The descriptive analysis of this information has told one story about teacher education at Batchelor Institute. This story is one of a strong curriculum, a changing cohort, and significant attrition rates. The stories told by the three graduates give detailed reflections on their learning journeys. Their stories are a reflection on a positive learning experience that strengthened their identities as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and gave them a rich professional qualification. Their stories were told through video, and a collaborative approach to research using video was developed through their work. To be able to understand these stories of teacher education at Batchelor Institute, the literature was critically reviewed with regard to equity and quality in Indigenous teacher education. This review was undertaken through the use of critical hermeneutics. Through the analysis of the differing stories about teacher education, and with regard to the literature, this study has found that quality in Indigenous teacher education is found in a program that explicitly includes the aim of self-determination, has Indigenous knowledges embedded in the curriculum, and uses relationship-based learning within its delivery.

description: Rhodopsin, the rod cell photoreceptor, undergoes rapid desensitization upon exposure to light, resulting in uncoupling of the receptor from its G protein, transducin (Gt). Phosphorylation of serine and threonine residues located in the COOH terminus of rhodopsin is the first step in this process, followed by the binding of arrestin. In this study, a series of mutants was generated in which these COOH-terminal phosphorylation substrate sites were substituted with alanines. These mutants were expressed in HEK-293 cells and analyzed for their ability to be phosphorylated by rhodopsin kinase and to bind arrestin. The results demonstrate that rhodopsin kinase can efficiently phosphorylate other serine and threonine residues in the absence of the sites reported to be the preferred substrates for rhodopsin kinase. A correlation was observed between the level of rhodopsin phosphorylation and the amount of arrestin binding to these mutants. However, mutants T340A and S343A demonstrated a significant reduction in arrestin binding even though the level of phosphorylation was similar to that of wild-type rhodopsin. Substitution of Thr-340 and Ser-343 with glutamic acid residues (T340E and S343E, respectively) was not sufficient to promote the binding of arrestin in the absence of phosphorylation by rhodopsin kinase. When S343E was phosphorylated, its ability to bind arrestin was similar to that of wild-type rhodopsin. Surprisingly, arrestin binding to phosphorylated T340E did not increase to the level observed for wild-type rhodopsin. These results suggest that 2 amino acids, Thr-340 and Ser-343, play important but distinct roles in promoting the binding of arrestin to rhodopsin.

description: This paper discusses the information behaviour of hikers on the West Highland Way in Scotland by exploring meaningful experiences described by fifty participants walking the route.Methods. Using an ethnographic approach, participants were interviewed in the field at sites on the West Highland Way using semi-structured questions. Qualitative results are discussed and analysed using inductive thematic analysis and links to literature are established. Two types of meaningful experience were found in the interview data: connections with nature and social connections. Profound natural connections were found to feature embodied information from sensory interaction with the environment, resulting in a contemplative mindset and offering well-being benefits. Social connections with family, friends and fellow walkers were also described as meaningful, situating the activity as a ‘higher thing’ and demonstrating further well-being benefits. This initial study indicates that natural and social connections are key to meaningful experience in walking the West Highland Way. A broader information behaviour study based on this work will further explore the use of embodied information, contemplation in information science, serious leisure as a ‘higher thing’, and well-being benefits.

description: Structural and electronic properties of ferroelectric columnar clusters constructed from benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid, (B3CA)n, were investigated at the Hartree-Fock level. It is shown that B3CA stacks form helix-shaped molecular tubes which are stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. It is furthermore shown that the strong electric field generated by the uniaxial alignment of the carboxyl groups can split an optically prepared exciton into an electron-hole pair and can drive the charge carriers to the opposite ends of the tube. Some consequences of the phenomenon for photovoltaic applications are discussed.
