Gene targeting

description: Small molecules have played an important role in defining the functions and identities of numerous proteins involved in fundamental biological processes as well as pathways involved in disease.   Chemical genetics represents the formalization of this process into a defined field desiring to achieve the breadth and specificity of classical genetics.  In order to gain full advantage of a small molecule's ability to perturb the cell for novel or desired phenotypes, a complete understanding of the molecule's mechanism of action must be achieved.  Identification of the biological targets of a molecule represents the most direct approach to attaining this knowledge.
      In our strategy to find novel mechanisms to target cancers with oncogenic RAS mutations, we have used small molecules to probe specific weaknesses of this cancerous network through synthetic lethal screening.  One molecule identified in these screens, RSL3, attracted interest as a candidate for target identification studies because of its potent lethality and potentially unique mechanism of action.  We used an affinity chromatography approach to directly isolate binding partners of RSL3 by modifying the molecules structure to incorporate various affinity tags.  Through these experiments we ultimately identified a number of interesting candidate targets.  Investigations validating these targets suggest that multi-targeted modulation of antioxidant and prostaglandin networks may be a mechanism for selectively killing cancers with oncogenic RAS.
      The identification of biological targets of small molecules poses a difficult challenge to the field of forward chemical genetics.  Thus, we attempted to optimize a unique method for target identification, the yeast three-hybrid system (Y3H), which detects small molecule-protein interactions through a transcriptional assay in vivo.  We created a version of our Y3H system that incorporated a covalent anchor and compared it with the existing state-of-the-art, which uses a high affinity non-covalent anchor.  Transcriptional assays indicated our new system was functional, but surprisingly could not improve upon the original Y3H system.  These results highlight the complexities of manipulating ligand-receptor interactions in vivo.

description: Secondary electron cascades are responsible for significant ionizations in macroscopic samples during irradiation with X-rays. A quantitative analysis of these cascades is needed, e.g. for assessing damage in optical components at X-ray free-electron lasers, and for understanding damage in samples exposed to the beam. Here we present results from Monte Carlo simulations, showing the space-time evolution of secondary electron cascades in diamond. These cascades follow the impact of a single primary electron at energies between 0.5-12 keV, representing the usual range for photoelectrons. The calculations describe the secondary ionizations caused by these electrons, the three-dimensional evolution of the electron cloud, and monitor the equivalent instantaneous temperature of the free-electron gas as the system cools during expansion. The dissipation of the impact energy proceeds predominantly through the production of secondary electrons whose energies are comparable to the binding energies of the valence (40-50 eV) and the core electrons (300 eV) in accordance with experiments and the models of interactions. The electron cloud generated by a 12 keV electron is strongly anisotropic in the early phases of the cascade (t <= 1 fs). At later times, the sample is dominated by low energy electrons, and these are scattered more isotropically by atoms in the sample. The results show that the emission of secondary electrons approaches saturation within about 100 fs, following the primary impact. At an impact energy of 12 keV, the total number of electrons liberated in the sample is <= 400 at 1000 fs. The results provide an understanding of ionizations by photoelectrons, and extend earlier models on low-energy electron cascades (E=0.25 keV, [ziaja,ziaja2]) to the higher energy regime of the photoelectrons.

description: Processing quantum information on continuous variables requires a highly nonlinear element in order to attain universality. Noise reduction in processing such quantum information involves the use of a nonlinear phase state as a non-Gaussian ancilla. A necessary condition for a nonlinear phase state to implement a nonlinear phase gate is that noise in a selected nonlinear quadrature should decrease below the level of classical states. A reduction of the variance in this nonlinear quadrature below the ground state of the ancilla, a type of nonlinear squeezing, is the resource embedded in these non-Gaussian states and a figure of merit for nonlinear quantum processes. Quantum optomechanics with levitating nanoparticles trapped in nonlinear optical potentials is a promising candidate to achieve such resources in a flexible way. We provide a scheme for reconstructing this figure of merit, which we call nonlinear squeezing, in standard linear quantum optomechanics, analysing the effects of mechanical decoherence processes on the reconstruction and show that all mechanical states which exhibit reduced noise in this nonlinear quadrature are nonclassical.

description: We analyze continuous optimal transport problems in the so-called Kantorovich form, where we seek a transport plan between two marginals that are probability measures on compact subsets of Euclidean space. We consider the case of regularization with the negative entropy with respect to the Lebesgue measure, which has attracted attention because it can be solved by the very simple Sinkhorn algorithm. We first analyze the regularized problem in the context of classical Fenchel duality and derive a strong duality result for a predual problem in the space of continuous functions. However, this problem may not admit a minimizer, which prevents obtaining primal-dual optimality conditions. We then show that the primal problem is naturally analyzed in the Orlicz space of functions with finite entropy in the sense that the entropically regularized problem admits a minimizer if and only if the marginals have finite entropy. We then derive a dual problem in the corresponding dual space, for which existence can be shown by purely variational arguments and primal-dual optimality conditions can be derived. For marginals that do not have finite entropy, we finally show Gamma-convergence of the regularized problem with smoothed marginals to the original Kantorovich problem.

description: Australia’s largest and most important waterway- the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) - is under threat owing to predicted increases in temperature extremes and reduction in rainfall - runoff in the coming decades. Management strategies are required that incorporate an understanding of dispersal patterns of the MDB fauna and flora. Patterns of dispersal have typically been studied through direct organismal studies but genetic approaches, in which the movement of genes in the landscape is used as a correlate of species dispersal, can provide a more comprehensive view by investigating at a much larger temporal and spatial scale. Genetic connectivity (dispersal) is influenced by the biology of the species, and by flow regime and the dendritic pattern of the network in riverine landscapes. An understanding of the relative influence of each on connectivity is required to deliver informed management strategies. Decisions regarding whether management for conservation is necessary also require an understanding of a species susceptibility to a changing environment. Species already exhibiting deleterious trajectories under current flow regimes in the basin may require more drastic measures than those that have remained unaffected.

description: The true Fermi surface of a fermionic many-body system can be viewed as a fixed point manifold of the renormalization group (RG). Within the framework of the exact functional RG we show that the fixed point condition implies an exact integral equation for the counterterm which is needed for a self-consistent calculation of the Fermi surface. In the simplest approximation, our integral equation reduces to the self-consistent Hartree-Fock equation for the counterterm.

description: How to evaluate and compare image quality from different sub-micrometer (sub$μ$) CT scans? A simple test phantom made of polymer microbeads is used for recording projection images as well as 13 CT scans in a number of commercial and non-commercial scanners. From the resulting CT images, signal and noise power spectra are modeled for estimating volume signal-to-noise ratios (3D SNR spectra). Using the same CT images, a time- and shape-independent transfer function (MTF) is computed for each scan, including phase contrast effects and image blur ($\mathrm{MTF_{blur}}$). The SNR spectra and MTF of the CT scans are compared to 2D SNR spectra of the projection images. In contrary to 2D SNR, volume SNR can be normalized with respect to the object's power spectrum, yielding detection effectiveness (DE) a new measure which reveals how technical differences as well as operator-choices strongly influence scan quality for a given measurement time. Using DE, both source-based and detector-based sub$μ$ CT scanners can be studied and their scan quality can be compared. Future application of this work requires a particular scan acquisition scheme which will allow for measuring 3D signal-to-noise ratios, making the model fit for 3D noise power spectra obsolete.

description: Byzantine Agreement introduced in [Pease, Shostak, Lamport, 80] is a widely used building block of reliable distributed protocols. It simulates broadcast despite the presence of faulty parties within the network, traditionally using only private unicast links. Under such conditions, Byzantine Agreement requires more than 2/3 of the parties to be compliant. [Fitzi, Maurer, 00], constructed a Byzantine Agreement protocol for any compliant majority based on an additional primitive allowing transmission to any two parties simultaneously. They proposed a problem of generalizing these results to wider channels and fewer compliant parties. We prove that 2f < kh condition is necessary and sufficient for implementing broadcast with h compliant and f faulty parties using k-cast channels.

description: For the paramagnetic insulating phase in the metal-ordered manganite YBaMn2O6, the so-called CE-type of charge/orbital ordered state was observed within the monoclinic ab-plane, which is most commonly observed for the ordinary half doped manganites. However, TEM revealed a 4-fold periodicity along the c-axis, suggesting a new stacking pattern, where planes of the CE-type are built up according to the sequence [aabb...]. Interestingly, when th system enters into the antiferromagnetic state, this stacking pattern changes into [aaaa...] or [abab], suggesting close interplay between spins and orbitals. These features are discusses in terms of inherent structural alternation, i.e., the Y/Ba order along the c-axis.

description: We analyze the optical morphologies of galaxies in the IllustrisTNG simulation at $z\sim0$ with a Convolutional Neural Network trained on visual morphologies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We generate mock SDSS images of a mass complete sample of $\sim12,000$ galaxies in the simulation using the radiative transfer code SKIRT and include PSF and noise to match the SDSS r-band properties. The images are then processed through the exact same neural network used to estimate SDSS morphologies to classify simulated galaxies in four morphological classes (E, S0/a, Sab, Scd). The CNN model finds that $\sim95\%$ of the simulated galaxies fall in one the four main classes with high confidence. The mass-size relations of the simulated galaxies divided by morphological type also reproduce well the slope and the normalization of observed relations which confirms the realism of optical morphologies in the TNG suite. However, the Stellar Mass Functions decomposed into different morphologies still show significant discrepancies with observations both at the low and high mass end. We find that the high mass end of the SMF is dominated in TNG by massive disk galaxies while early-type galaxies dominate in the observations according to the CNN classifications. The present work highlights the importance of detailed comparisons between observations and simulations in comparable conditions.

description: Introduction The SADI was introduced in the hope to reduce complication rates of the traditional Roux-en-Y. Bariatric surgery is always striving to reduce complications whilst maintaining weight loss. The SADI involves a sleeve gastrectomy and a duodeno-ileostomy with a common channel of 250-300cm. Optimal length for the common channel (CC) and biliary-pancreatic (BP) limb remains contested. The SDJB is similar to the SADI other than the BP limb is shortened to 150cm. Our aim was to confirm a reduction in malabsorptive complications and maintain weight loss over time by shortening BP limb length. Methods A 5-year retrospective cohort study was performed at a single surgeon institute. 78 SADI, 57 SDJB patients and a BMI matched cohort of 135 SG patients were identified. Inclusions: BMI 35-70, operation December 2015 – December 2021. Exclusions: revisional ring procedures. Data was collected pre and post operative. Outcomes were EWL% at 5 years, Biochemistry, stool habit and complications. Results: Shortening limb length was not significantly different to SADI regarding EWL% at 5 years (p=0.137) yet SADI and SDJB were superior to SG alone in EWL% at 3 and 4 years (p=<0.001 and p=0.017). SDJB was similar to SADI at remission of T2DM with both groups significantly reducing HbA1c compared to SG group (p=0.006, p=0.009 respectively). All groups significantly reduced use of CPAP, Statins and antihypertensives post operative. SDJB group significantly improved post operative daily stool count and consistency compared to SADI group (p=0.03 and p=0.001). SDJB complication rate was comparative to SADI 5.2% and 6.4% respectively with no significant difference between the two groups (p=0.189). SDJB had significantly improved levels of selenium, corrected calcium, cholesterol and B12 stores compared to SADI (p=0.041, p=0.001, p=<0.001, p=<0.001). Conclusion Shortening limb length (SDJB) proved equal to SADI regarding EWL% over 5 years. With SADI and SDJB groups having significantly higher long term EWL% compared to SG alone. SDJB was significantly better then SADI at reducing bowel motions per day and improving stool consistency. SDJB had significantly improved biochemical markers of malabsorption compared to SADI. Overall, SDJB has similar disease resolution and weight loss to SADI and significantly improved bowel habits. Thus, shortening BPL reduced malabsorptive complications whilst maintaining long term EWL%.

description: Dynamically changing environments, unreliable state estimation, and operation under severe resource constraints are fundamental challenges that limit the deployment of small autonomous drones. We address these challenges in the context of autonomous, vision-based drone racing in dynamic environments. A racing drone must traverse a track with possibly moving gates at high speed. We enable this functionality by combining the performance of a state-of-the-art planning and control system with the perceptual awareness of a convolutional neural network (CNN). The resulting modular system is both platform- and domain-independent: it is trained in simulation and deployed on a physical quadrotor without any fine-tuning. The abundance of simulated data, generated via domain randomization, makes our system robust to changes of illumination and gate appearance. To the best of our knowledge, our approach is the first to demonstrate zero-shot sim-to-real transfer on the task of agile drone flight. We extensively test the precision and robustness of our system, both in simulation and on a physical platform, and show significant improvements over the state of the art.

description: Conformations of isolated homo- dendrimers of G=1-7 generations with D=1-6 spacers have been studied in the good and poor solvents, as well as across the coil-to-globule transition, by means of a version of the Gaussian self-consistent (GSC) method and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation in continuous space based on the same coarse-grained model. The latter includes harmonic springs between connected monomers and the pair-wise Lennard-Jones potential with a hard core repulsion. The scaling law for the dendrimer size, the degrees of bond stretching and steric congestion, as well as the radial density, static structure factor, and asphericity have been analysed. It is also confirmed that while smaller dendrimers have a dense core, larger ones develop a hollow domain at some separation from the centre.

description: By utilizing large-scale graph analytic tools implemented in the modern Big Data platform, Apache Spark, we investigate the topological structure of gravitational clustering in five different universes produced by cosmological $N$-body simulations with varying parameters: (1) a WMAP 5-year compatible $Λ$CDM cosmology, (2) two different dark energy equation of state variants, and (3) two different cosmic matter density variants. For the Big Data calculations, we use a custom build of stand-alone Spark/Hadoop cluster at Korea Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS) and Dataproc Compute Engine in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) with the sample size ranging from 7 millions to 200 millions. We find that among the many possible graph-topological measures, three simple ones: (1) the average of number of neighbors (the so-called average vertex degree) $α$, (2) closed-to-connected triple fraction (the so-called transitivity) $τ_Δ$, and (3) the cumulative number density $n_{s\ge5}$ of subcomponents with connected component size $s \ge 5$, can effectively discriminate among the five model universes. Since these graph-topological measures are in direct relation with the usual $n$-points correlation functions of the cosmic density field, graph-topological statistics powered by Big Data computational infrastructure opens a new, intuitive, and computationally efficient window into the dark Universe.

description: Starting from a simple microscopic model, we have derived a kinetic equation for the matrix distribution function. We employed this equation to calculate the conductance $G$ in a mesoscopic F'/F/F' structure with a domain wall (DW). In the limit of a small exchange energy $J$ and an abrupt DW, the conductance of the structure is equal to $G_{2d}=4σ_{\uparrow}σ_{\downarrow }/(σ_{\uparrow}+σ_{\downarrow})L$. Assuming that the scattering times for electrons with up and down spins are close to each other we show that the account for a finite width of the DW leads to an increase in this conductance. We have also calculated the spatial distribution of the electric field in the F wire. In the opposite limit of large $J$ (adiabatic variation of the magnetization in the DW) the conductance coincides in the main approximation with the conductance of a single domain structure $% G_{1d}=(σ_{\uparrow}+σ_{\downarrow})/L$. The account for rotation of the magnetization in the DW leads to a negative correction to this conductance. Our results differ from the results in papers published earlier.

description: We present the first observational evidence that light propagating near a rotating black hole is twisted in phase and carries orbital angular momentum (OAM). This physical observable allows a direct measurement of the rotation of the black hole. We extracted the OAM spectra from the radio intensity data collected by the Event Horizon Telescope from around the black hole M87* by using wavefront reconstruction and phase recovery techniques and from the visibility amplitude and phase maps. This method is robust and complementary to black-hole shadow circularity analyses. It shows that the M87* rotates clockwise with an estimated rotation parameter $a=0.90\pm0.05$ with $\sim 95\%$ confidence level (c.l.) and inclination $i=17^\circ \pm2^\circ$, equivalent to a magnetic arrested disk with inclination $i=163^\circ\pm2^\circ$. From our analysis we conclude, within a 6 $σ$ c.l., that the M87* is rotating.

Correlations in the low-temperature phase of the two-dimensional XY model

description: Monte Carlo simulations of the two-dimensional XY model are performed in a square geometry with fixed boundary conditions. Using a conformal mapping it is very easy to deduce the exponent eta_sigma(T) of the order parameter correlation function at any temperature in the critical phase of the model. The temperature behaviour of eta_sigma(T) is obtained numerically with a good accuracy up to the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition temperature. At very low temperatures, a good agreement is found with Berezinskii's harmonic approximation. Surprisingly, we show some evidence that there are no logarithmic corrections to the behaviour of the order parameter density profile (with symmetry breaking surface fields) at the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition temperature.

description: Radio relics in galaxy clusters are giant diffuse synchrotron sources powered in cluster outskirts by merger shocks. Although the relic-shock connection has been consolidated in recent years by a number of observations, the details of the mechanisms leading to the formation of relativistic particles in this environment are still not well understood. The diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) theory is a commonly adopted scenario to explain the origin of cosmic rays at astrophysical shocks, including those in radio relics in galaxy clusters. However, in a few specific cases it has been shown that the energy dissipated by cluster shocks is not enough to reproduce the luminosity of the relics via DSA of thermal particles. Studies based on samples of radio relics are required to further address this limitation of the mechanism. In this paper, we focus on ten well-studied radio relics with underlying shocks observed in the X-rays and calculate the electron acceleration efficiency of these shocks that is necessary to reproduce the observed radio luminosity of the relics. We find that in general the standard DSA cannot explain the origin of the relics if electrons are accelerated from the thermal pool with an efficiency significantly smaller than 10%. Our results show that other mechanisms, such as shock re-acceleration of supra-thermal seed electrons or a modification of standard DSA, are required to explain the formation of radio relics.

Application of Distance Covariance to Extremes and Time Series and Inference for Linear Preferential Attachment Networks

Subjects: subject: Statistics
subject: FOS: Mathematics
subject: Analysis of covariance

subject: System analysis

description: This thesis covers four topics: i) Measuring dependence in time series through distance covariance; ii) Testing goodness-of-fit of time series models; iii) Threshold selection for multivariate heavy-tailed data; and iv) Inference for linear preferential attachment networks.
      Topic i) studies a dependence measure based on characteristic functions, called distance covariance, in time series settings. Distance covariance recently gathered popularity for its ability to detect nonlinear dependence. In particular, we characterize a general family of such dependence measures and use them to measure lagged serial and cross dependence in stationary time series. Assuming strong mixing, we establish the relevant asymptotic theory for the sample auto- and cross- distance correlation functions.
      Topic ii) proposes a goodness-of-fit test for general classes of time series model by applying the auto-distance covariance function (ADCV) to the fitted residuals. Under the correct model assumption, the limit distribution for the ADCV of the residuals differs from that of an i.i.d. sequence by a correction term. This adjustment has essentially the same form regardless of the model specification.
      Topic iii) considers data in the multivariate regular varying setting where the radial part $R$ is asymptotically independent of the angular part $\Theta$ as $R$ goes to infinity. The goal is to estimate the limiting distribution of $\Theta$ given $R\to\infty$, which characterizes the tail dependence of the data. A typical strategy is to look at the angular components of the data for which the radial parts exceed some threshold. We propose an algorithm to select the threshold based on distance covariance statistics and a subsampling scheme.
      Topic iv) investigates inference questions related to the linear preferential attachment model for network data. Preferential attachment is an appealing mechanism based on the intuition “the rich get richer” and produces the well-observed power-law behavior in net- works. We provide methods for fitting such a model under two data scenarios, when the network formation is given, and when only a single-time snapshot of the network is observed.
A Galois correspondence for II_1 factors and quantum groupoids

description: We establish a Galois correspondence for finite quantum groupoid actions on II_1 factors and show that every finite index and finite depth subfactor is an intermediate subalgebra of a quantum groupoid crossed product. Moreover, any such a subfactor is completely and canonically determined by a quantum groupoid and its coideal *-subalgebra. This allows to express the bimodule category of a subfactor in terms of the representation category of a corresponding quantum groupoid and the principal graph as the Bratteli diagram of an inclusion of certain C^*-algebras related to it.
