description: The mass matrix for Gauss-Lobatto grid points is usually approximated by Gauss-Lobatto quadrature because this leads to a diagonal matrix that is easy to invert. The exact mass matrix and its inverse are full. We show that the exact mass matrix \emph{and} its inverse differ from the approximate diagonal ones by a simple rank-1 update (outer product). They can thus be applied to an arbitrary vector in $O(N)$ operations instead of $O(N^2)$.

description: Tailoring the design of robot bodies for control purposes is implicitly performed by engineers, however, a methodology or set of tools is largely absent and optimization of morphology (shape, material properties of robot bodies, etc.) is lagging behind the development of controllers. This has become even more prominent with the advent of compliant, deformable or "soft" bodies. These carry substantial potential regarding their exploitation for control---sometimes referred to as "morphological computation" in the sense of offloading computation needed for control to the body. Here, we will argue in favor of a dynamical systems rather than computational perspective on the problem. Then, we will look at the pros and cons of simple vs. complex bodies, critically reviewing the attractive notion of "soft" bodies automatically taking over control tasks. We will address another key dimension of the design space---whether model-based control should be used and to what extent it is feasible to develop faithful models for different morphologies.

Αναλυτικότερα, η επεξεργασία των συλλογών κειμένων έχει διττή διάσταση. Η πρώτη διάσταση αφορά την δηλωτική γνώση (declarative knowledge), ήτοι την γνώση για οντότητες (π.χ. αντικείμενα, συμβάντα), και σχετίζεται με την ψηφιακή επεξεργασία των κειμένων προκειμένου τα αδόμητα δεδομένα που εμπεριέχουν αυτά να μετασχηματιστούν σε δομημένα δεδομένα. Η δεύτερη διάσταση αφορά την διαδικαστική γνώση (procedural knowledge), ήτοι την γνώση για την πραγματοποίηση μιας εργασίας, και σχετίζεται με τον αυστηρό καθορισμό μιας αλληλουχίας βημάτων. Με άλλες λέξεις, την δημιουργία ενός αλγόριθμου που εξηγεί μία διαδικασία. Η υλοποίηση των παραπάνω θα γίνει με αξιοποίηση ψηφιακών εργαλείων: α) υπολογιστικής γλωσσολογίας (π.χ.

description: The object of this work is the processing of text collections so that their contents, i.e. their unstructured information are transformed into knowledge. More specifically, the processing of text collections has a dual dimension. The first dimension concerns declarative knowledge, i.e. knowledge of entities (e.g. objects, events), and is related to the digital processing of texts in order the unstructured data they contain to be transformed into structured data. The second dimension concerns procedural knowledge, i.e. the knowledge to perform a task and is related to the strict definition of a sequence of steps. In other words, creating an algorithm that explains a process. The implementation of the above will be done by using digital tools: a) computational linguistics (e.g. Antconc) b) spreadsheets (e.g. excel) and c) graphical representation of knowledge (e.g. yEd)

description: The extreme physical conditions of Gamma Ray Bursts can constitute a useful observational laboratory to test theories of gravity where very high curvature regimes are involved. Here we propose a sort of curvature engine capable, in principle, of explaining the huge energy emission of Gamma Ray Bursts. Specifically, we investigate the emission of radiation by charged particles non-minimally coupled to the gravitational background where higher order curvature invariants are present. The coupling gives rise to an additional force inducing a non-geodesics motion of particles. This fact allows a strong emission of radiation by gravitationally accelerated particles. As we will show with some specific model, the energy emission is of the same order of magnitude of that characterizing the Gamma Ray Burst physics. Alternatively, strong curvature regimes can be considered as a natural mechanism for the generation of highly energetic astrophysical events. Possible applications to cosmology are discussed.

description: Measurements of small-scale turbulence made over the complex-terrain atmospheric boundary layer during the MATERHORN Program are used to describe the structure of turbulence in katabatic flows. Turbulent and mean meteorological data were continuously measured at multiple levels at four towers deployed along the East lower slope (2-4 deg) of Granite Mountain. The multi-level observations made during a 30-day long MATERHORN-Fall field campaign in September-October 2012 allowed studying of temporal and spatial structure of katabatic flows in detail, and herein we report turbulence and their variations in katabatic winds. Observed vertical profiles show steep gradients near the surface, but in the layer above the slope jet the vertical variability is smaller. It is found that the vertical (normal to the slope) momentum flux and horizontal (along the slope) heat flux in a slope-following coordinate system change their sign below and above the wind maximum of a katabatic flow. The vertical momentum flux is directed downward (upward) whereas the horizontal heat flux is downslope (upslope) below (above) the wind maximum. Our study therefore suggests that the position of the jet-speed maximum can be obtained by linear interpolation between positive and negative values of the momentum flux (or the horizontal heat flux) to derive the height where flux becomes zero. It is shown that the standard deviations of all wind speed components (therefore the turbulent kinetic energy) and the dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy have a local minimum, whereas the standard deviation of air temperature has an absolute maximum at the height of wind-speed maximum. We report several cases where the vertical and horizontal heat fluxes are compensated. Turbulence above the wind-speed maximum is decoupled from the surface, and follows the classical local z-less predictions for stably stratified boundary layer.

description: This thesis engages in an initial exploration of the spatial experiences of older youth in the suburbs of the West Island of Montreal. Adopting a Lefebvrian spatial lens, the goal of this thesis is to outline the characteristics of the lived experiences of older middle class youth in a constructed suburban environment. Semi-structured interviews were conducted in a largely Anglophone college with students aged 18 to 19 years of age. I begin my thesis by reviewing the literature on urban youth geographies, aimed at analyzing the influence of the built urban environment. I argue that the suburban experiences of older youth varies from those of children, inner city youth, and marginalized youth who are most represented in the literature. Then, I present the important considerations of doing research with youth participants and the ways in which my conceived methods were altered during my fieldwork, leading to adjustments in sampling, and subsequent impacts on the conclusions of this thesis. I continue by presenting the themes that emerged during the interviews, which I illustrate by sharing the reflections and everyday experiences of participants. From these accounts, I draw links between the similarities and differences among participants, the literature, and Lefebvre's theories. In this analysis, I reflect upon the differences between available youth literatures and the young people from my sample, leading me to further explore broader literatures that enable me to contextualize more characteristics of my sample and concepts related to the lack of illegitimate spaces in the suburbs, the significance of private space in the suburban environment, play, resistance, and the use of alternative spaces, in a way that differs from the accounts from marginalized urban youth literatures. I argue that the young people from my sample feel less marginalized, therefore engaging in less obvious forms of resistance, while still finding ways to shape their identities and play while being limited by some of the conditions of the built suburban environment.
Measurement of charged-particle spectra in Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{{s}_\mathsf{NN}} = 2.76$ TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC

description: Charged-particle spectra obtained in 0.15 nb${}^{-1}$ of Pb+Pb interactions at $\sqrt{{s}_\mathsf{NN}}=2.76$TeV and 4.2 pb${}^{-1}$ of pp interactions at $\sqrt{s}=2.76$ TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are presented in a wide transverse momentum ($0.5 < p_{\mathrm{T}} < 150$ GeV) and pseudorapidity ($|η|<2$) range. For Pb+Pb collisions, the spectra are presented as a function of collision centrality, which is determined by the response of the forward calorimeter located on both sides of the interaction point. The nuclear modification factors $R_{\mathrm{AA}}$ and $R_{\mathrm{CP}}$ are presented in detail as function of centrality, $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ and $η$. They show a distinct $p_{\mathrm{T}}$-dependence with a pronounced minimum at about 7 GeV. Above 60 GeV, $R_{\mathrm{AA}}$ is consistent with a plateau at a centrality-dependent value, within the uncertainties. The value is $0.55\pm0.01(stat.)\pm0.04(syst.)$ in the most central collisions. The $R_{\mathrm{AA}}$ distribution is consistent with flat $|η|$ dependence over the whole transverse momentum range in all centrality classes.

description: In the case of comparison between samples with unequal replications [n1 # n2 # n3 # ∙∙∙ # nk], the statistician should use LSD (Least Significant Difference) many times to achieve these comparisons, this method consumes more time and effort. The purpose of this research is to find out a new method to do easy and reliable comparison between population means when the experiment or data involving different numbers of replications. In order to do this, a new formula was designed; the aim of this new formula is to develop the multiple comparisons into one step instead of doing it with many steps that consume more effort and time. In this work, the researcher used the mean of the repli?cation number in the LDS formula instead of doing the calculation many times for each two means. The results of this study found that the new formu?la give similar results for multiple comparisons with minimal effort. It was concluded that the new formula (named Al-fahham’s Formula) achieves the same results with less time and efforts. It was recommended that Al-fahham’s Formula can be approved in the statistical textbooks and procedures.

description: A simple quantum interaction is analyzed, where the paths of two superposed particles asymmetrically cross, while a detector set to detect an interaction between them remains silent. Despite this negative result, the particles' states leave no doubt that a peculiar interaction has occurred: One particle's momentum changes while the other's remains unaffected, in apparent violation of momentum conservation. Revisiting the foundations of the quantum measurement process offers the resolution. Prior to the macroscopic recording of no interaction, a brief Critical Interval prevails, during which the particles and the detector's pointer form a subtle entanglement which immediately dissolves. It is this self-cancellation, henceforth "Quantum Oblivion (QO)," that lies at the basis of some well-known intriguing quantum effects. Such is Interaction-Free Measurement (IFM) [1] and its more paradoxical variants, like Hardy's Paradox [2] and the Quantum Liar Paradox [3]. Even the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect [4] and weak measurement [5] turn out to belong to this group. We next study interventions within the Critical Interval that produce some other peculiar effects. Finally we discuss some of the conceptual issues involved. Under the time-resolution of the Critical Interval, some nonlocal phenomena turn out to be local. Momentum is conserved due to the quantum uncertainties inflicted by the particle-pointer interaction, which sets the experiment's final boundary condition.

Protection obstacles

description: Albeit people worldwide cry out for the protection of their privacy, they often fail to successfully protect their private data. Possible reasons for this failure that have been identified in previous research include a lack of knowledge about possible privacy consequences, the negative outcome of a rational cost-benefit analysis, and insufficient ability for protection on the users’ side. However, these findings mainly base on theoretical considerations or results from quantitative studies, and no comprehensive explanation for users’ privacy behavior has been found so far. We thus conducted an interview study with 24 participants to qualitatively investigate what are (1) users’ mental models of privacy consequences, (2) obstacles for privacy protection, and (3) strategies for privacy protection. Our results provide evidence for all possible explanations: We find that most of our participants are indeed unaware of most consequences that could result from not protecting their privacy besides personalized advertisement and financial loss. We also identify several obstacles for privacy protection, such as protection being too much effort, too complicated, users lacking knowledge, or social aspects. Protection strategies mostly base on reducing the amount of data disclosed and most users refrain from using advanced PETs. We further identified additional factors which influence whether people adopt measures to protect their privacy and propose a model which subsumes all factors that are relevant for people’s decision to apply protection measures.
Investigation of Diazapyrones in the Context of Bioorthogonal Chemistry
Creators: name: Morrill, Kaitlyn
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2023
Subjects: Bioorthogonal

description: The field of bioorthogonal chemistry uses click chemistry as a tool to further understand cellular function. The tools of bioorthogonal chemistry include cell and metabolic probes, fluorescent probes with varying bioorthogonal handles that can be used for cell labelling, and gauging metabolic function. This is done by using non-toxic, orthogonal, and selective chemical probes that do not interfere with the complex environment of the cell (termed bioorthogonal). An example of a bioorthogonal reaction is the tetrazine ligation, which occurs via an Inverse Electron Demand Diels Alder (IEDDA) reaction with the 4π and 2π orbitals of a tetrazine and an alkyne/alkene, respectively. This reaction is considered bioorthogonal due to the reagents' high selectivity, quick kinetic rates of reaction, and the reaction's high yield, all of which do not disturb the native cellular environment. The key advantage of this reaction is its extremely fast rate, with second-order rate constants ranging from 10³ to 10⁶ M⁻¹s⁻¹ with the exergonic release of N₂ (g) as the sole by-product which causes the reaction to be irreversible. However, tetrazines are easily hydrolyzed and are redox-sensitive. In this work, we describe herein an alternative bioorthogonal reagent to tetrazine in an IEDDA reaction with cyclooctynes or trans-cyclooctene (TCO). Currently, the tetrazine ligation, with an alkene/alkyne is the fastest bioorthogonal reaction known. Based on this, we investigated the synthesis of diazapyrones as an alternative heterocycle to tetrazine. We also investigated the synthesis of trans-cyclooctenes using a photochemical flow reactor developed by Dr. Fox et al. From this we aimed to develop two cycloaddition reactions, the first one using bicyclononyne (BCN) and the second using strained trans-cyclooctenes (sTCO). Both of these reagents act as the dienophiles. Evaluation of reactions between diazapyrones, cyclooctynes, and trans-cyclooctenes was done through kinetic studies using UV-Vis spectroscopy under pseudo-first-order conditions. Different diazapyrones were tested accordingly with BCN and sTCO dienophiles. The effects of varying substituents on the diazapyrones were also studied. From the results, it was determined that electron-poor diazapyrones react the fastest with BCN and sTCO. Kinetic studies also indicated that diazapyrones are unstable in aqueous environments and are prone to hydrolysis. However, this primarily poses issues for electron poor diazapyrone. The reactions between diazapyrones and cyclooctynes or trans-cyclooctenes are slower than the established tetrazine ligation (k2 ~ 1 - 10⁴ M⁻¹s⁻¹). The k2 values are 10⁻² M⁻¹s⁻¹ and 10 M⁻¹s⁻¹ respectively. However, reaction rates are comparable to other established bioorthogonal reactions such as SPACC (k~ 10⁻² - 10 M⁻¹s⁻¹) or SPANC (k~ 10 - 60 M⁻¹s⁻¹). Thus, this reaction is a useful addition to the bioorthogonal toolbox and can be applied in cell labelling experiments.
Narayanaswamy's 1971 aging theory and material time

description: The Bochkov-Kuzovlev nonlinear fluctuation-dissipation theorem is used to derive Narayanaswamy's phenomenological theory of physical aging, in which this highly nonlinear phenomenon is described by a linear material-time convolution integral. A characteristic property of the Narayanaswamy aging description is material-time translational invariance, which is here taken as the basic assumption of the derivation. It is shown that only one possible definition of the material time obeys this invariance, namely the square of the distance travelled from a configuration of the system far back in time. The paper concludes with suggestions for computer simulations that test for consequences of material-time translational invariance. One of these is the "unique-triangles property" according to which any three points on the system's path form a triangle such that two side lengths determine the third; this is equivalent to the well-known triangular relation for time-autocorrelation functions of aging spin glasses [L. F. Cugliandolo and J. Kurchan, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 27, 5749 (1994)]. The unique-triangles property implies a simple geometric interpretation of out-of-equilibrium time-autocorrelation functions, which extends to aging a previously proposed framework for such functions in equilibrium [J. C. Dyre, cond-mat/9712222].

description: We present a theory for the current shot noise in long diffusive SNS structures with low-resistive interfaces at arbitrary temperatures. In such structures, the noise is mostly generated by normal electron scattering in the N-region. Whereas the $I$-$V$ characteristics are approximately described by Ohm's law, the current noise reveals all characteristic features of the MAR regime: "giant" enhancement at low voltages, pronounced SGS, and excess noise at large voltages. The most spectacular feature of the noise in the incoherent MAR regime is a universal finite noise level at zero voltage and at zero temperature, $S= 4Δ/3R$. This effect can be understood as the result of the enhancement of the effective charge of the carriers, $q^{\it eff}=2Δ/V$, or, alternatively, as the effect of strongly non-equilibrium quasiparticle population in the energy gap region with the effective temperature $T_0=Δ/3$. Under the condition of dominant electron-electron scattering, the junction undergoes crossover to the hot electron regime, with the effective temperature of the subgap electrons decreasing logarithmically with the voltage. Calculation of the noise power has been done on the basis of circuit theory of the incoherent MAR.

description: This paper addresses the phonology of a Swedish girl, aged 3 years 10 months, with extensive phonological difficulties that include an unusual phonological pattern. She had relatively well-developed phonological building blocks in terms of features, stress pattern and word length (number of syllables), but had extensive difficulties regarding syllable and word shapes, with frequent deletions of both segments and whole syllables. Word-initial position was dominated by non-continuant consonants, both voiced and voiceless, with extensive deletion. Word-medial position was dominated by voiceless obstruents, with extensive use of [j] in place of voiced consonants. Word-final position was similar to word-medial, but with more deletion than [j]. Non-initial stressed syllables resemble word-initial syllables. Consonant clusters mirrored singletons, i.e. with similar substitution patterns or deletions. We present a non-linear analysis of her speech production, and a plan for intervention targeting her special difficulties.

IDENTIFICATION OF A NOVEL PROTEIN TYROSINE KINASE, JAK 3
Creators: name: Blake, Trevor Bailey
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 1996

description: Signal transduction in lymphocytes is accomplished by the use of protein tyrosine kinases. These kinases associate with and phosphorylate receptor subunits upon receptor binding by ligand. The predominant protein tyrosine kinase in T lymphocytes is lck, a member of the src family of protein tyrosine kinases. It has been shown, however, that activation of T lymphocytes occurs in the absence of lck. This would indicate that there are other kinases, which may not have been characterized, involved in activation. Natural Killer (NK) cells resemble activated T lymphocytes in exhibiting a high basal phosphorylation level. In addition, they are able to lyse other cells. For these reasons, NK cells were chosen as a source from which to isolate and characterize unique protein tyrosine kinases. RT PCR was performed on RNA from NK cells. Degenerate primers were then generated corresponding to the conserved catalytic domain of src and non-src kinases. These were then used to amplify the RT PCR generated products from NK cells. Products were then digested, subcloned in pBluescript, and sequenced from both ends using vector primers. Jak 3 is one of the identified kinases from the non-src library. It has a predicted MW of 125KD and contains two tandem nonidentical catalytic domains. Interestingly, it lacks the src homology domains characteristic of the src family of kinases. Jak 3 is instead the fourth member of the Janus family of kinases and is expressed predominantly in NK cells and activated T lymphocytes. The previously cloned Janus kinases are expressed ubiquitously. The selective expression of Jak 3 lead to the examination of its relationship to the T lymphocyte activation pathway. One method of T lymphocyte activation (as well as B and NK cell activation) is by the use of IL2, an autocrine growth factor for T lymphocytes. Upon activation by IL2, protein tyrosine phosphorylation is increased by activation of protein tyrosine kinases associated with cellular subunits of the receptor. Data presented shows that Jak 3 is coupled to the IL2 receptor in human peripheral blood T lymphocytes and NK cells. Specific experiments show that upon activation, Jak 3 is tyrosine phosphorylated in YT cells, the NK cell line NK 3.3, and NK cells. In addition, IL2 stimulated enzymatic activity of Jak 3 as shown by and in vitro kinase assay.

description: We investigate the spatial distribution of charged particles accelerated by non-relativistic oblique fast collisionless shocks using three-dimensional test-particle simulations. We find that the density of low-energy particles exhibit a localised enhancement at the shock, resembling the "spike" measured at interplanetary shocks. In contrast to previous results based on numerical solutions to the focused transport equation, we find a shock spike for any magnetic obliquity, from quasi-perpendicular to parallel. We compare the pitch-angle distribution with respect to the local magnetic field and the momentum distribution far downstream and very near the shock within the spike; our findings are compatible with predictions from the scatter-free shock drift acceleration (SDA) limit in these regions. The enhancement of low-energy particles measured by Voyager 1 at solar termination shock is comparable with our profiles. Our simulations allow for predictions of supra-thermal protons at interplanetary shocks within ten solar radii to be tested by Solar Probe Mission. They also have implications for the interpretation of ions accelerated at supernova remnant shocks.

BIOASSAY GUIDED FRACTIONATION AS A TOOL FOR CORRELATING CYTOTOXICITY AND PHYTOTOXICITY

Year: 1996

description: A characteristic feature of plants is the ability to synthesize a wide range of secondary metabolites. The question arises as to why plants invest so much energy and care in the formation of these compounds. The main function appears to be chemical defense against microorganisms, herbivores, and other competing plant species (allelopathy). However, these metabolites may have more than one function or biological activity. For example, compounds may be an attractant for insects and be antibiotic and UV-protectant at the same time. Reported biological activities of secondary metabolites include antimicrobial, antifungal, cytotoxicity, and phytotoxicity. Although some secondary metabolites have been reported to have activity in more than one biological system, researchers tend to focus on one area of study and therefore may not document other biological activities outside their focus. One area which has not been extensively explored is the possible correlation between phytotoxicity and cytotoxicity. This study was designed to explore, through bioassay guided fractionation, whether such a correlation exists. The fractionation and isolation of secondary metabolites was bioassay-guided using the aquatic plant, Lemna minor, to test for plant phytotoxicity. Fractions were simultaneously submitted to the National Cancer Institute's 60-cell line human tumor screen to test for cytotoxicity. Using this method, three compounds were isolated from a marine gorgonian. Buddledin C and buddledin D have previously been isolated from a terrestrial plant and reported to show piscicidal activity. Suberosenone is a novel compound which has a rare tricyclic quadrone-type carbon skeleton. It shows antitumor activity with a mean GI50of 0.06 μM in the NCI's antitumor screen. Suberosenone also has phytotoxic activity with a mean G150of 46 μWI in the Lemna minor bioassay. Suberosenone is the first representative of the quadrone class of sesquiterpenes isolated from a marine organism.

description: Mott insulators with strong spin-orbit coupling have been proposed to host unconventional magnetic states, including the Kitaev quantum spin liquid. The 4$d$ system $α$-RuCl$_3$ has recently come into view as a candidate Kitaev system, with evidence for unusual spin excitations in magnetic scattering experiments. We apply a combination of optical spectroscopy and Raman scattering to study the electronic structure of this material. Our measurements reveal a series of orbital excitations involving localized total angular momentum states of the Ru ion, implying that strong spin-orbit coupling and electron-electron interactions coexist in this material. Analysis of these features allows us to estimate the spin-orbit coupling strength, as well as other parameters describing the local electronic structure, revealing a well-defined hierarchy of energy scales within the Ru $d$ states. By comparing our experimental results with density functional theory calculations, we also clarify the overall features of the optical response. Our results demonstrate that $α$-RuCl$_3$ is an ideal material system to study spin-orbit coupled magnetism on the honeycomb lattice.

description: The regal fritillary butterfly (Speyeria idalia) was once commonly observed throughout the eastern seaboard grasslands and mid-western prairies of the United States. Throughout its range Viola species are its preferred larval host plant. The eastern subspecies (Speyeria idalia idalia) feeds exclusively on arrow-leaved violet (Viola sagittata). Little is known about arrow-leaved violet germination specifics. Two treatment methods were applied to Viola sagittata seeds, scarification and fire simulation, to test success rates of germination. Results show that there was no significant difference between treatment methods and low germination rates were common among all groups.
Q FEVER IN MARYLAND: PREVALENCE OF ANTIBODIES AGAINST COXIELLA BURNETII AMONG WILD MICE IN FREDERICK COUNTY
Creators: name: Bolt, Christopher Rush

description: Mice indigenous to the rural environment of Frederick County, Maryland, were surveyed for seropositive reactions to Coxiella burnetii, phase I and phase II. Three distinct ecological habitats (barns, wooded fencelines, and open fields) were sampled, and the proximity of the mice to the presence of large domestic animals, traditionally a major source of human infection, was ascertained. Seventy-four mice were trapped; 53 that were alive when removed from the traps were tested for antibodies against C. burnetii using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Three genera of mice were found within the habitats: Mus, Peromyscus, and Microtus. Initial testing by ELISA revealed the inability of Mus-derived conjugate to recognize immunoglobulins (IG) of Peromyscus or Microtus. To circumvent this problem, pools of sera from Peromyscus and Microtus were obtained; the IG portion was extracted from each pool, using ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by elution from a protein-A sepharose column. Each individual extract was used to immunize rabbits against either Peromyscus or Microtus IG. The species-specific antisera were then used in the ELISA to detect Peromyscus and Microtus IG which had bound to phase I or phase II C. burnetii antigens. Survey results showed a high proportion (65-84%, inclusive) of seropositives to Q fever among all three genera, regardless of habitat. These observations are analogous to those of other studies which showed a comparatively high incidence of antibodies against C. burnetii in both domestic ungulates and humans in central Maryland. However, in this study there appeared to be no relationship between proximity of mice to large domestic animals and prevalence of antibodies against C. burnetii. Results of this study strongly suggest the possibility of endemic foci of C. burnetii being maintained within wild animal communities in central Maryland.
COMPARATIVE EXPRESSION OF THE prM/E GENES OF CENTRAL EUROPEAN ENCEPHALITIS (CEE) VIRUS FROM STABLYTRANSFORMED INSECT CELL LINES AND FROM CELLS INFECTED WITH RECOMBINANT BACULOVIRUSES

description: To attempt to identify a convenient system for producing large quantities of antigen for diagnosis of tick-borne encephalitis, the expression of the prM/E genes of Central European encephalitis (CEE) virus was compared in different insect cell systems: recombinant baculovirus infected cell cultures and stablytransformed cell lines. Recombinant baculoviruses were prepared that expressed the prM/E genes of CEE under control of the immediate early promoter, ie1, or two late promoters, polyhedrin or p10, of the baculovirus Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus. These recombinant baculoviruses were used to infect cultured Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) and Trichoplusia ni (T. ni) insect cells. Expressed prM and E proteins were readily detected by radiolabeling and immunoprecipitation. Both of the late promoter recombinants produced more of the expressed proteins than did the early promoter recombinant. Stable lines of Sf9 and T. ni cells were produced with the prM/E genes inserted into the host chromosomes under control of ie1. This provided an insect cell line that could continuously express and secrete the CEE proteins allowing the antigen to be collected from the supernatant indefinitely. Stably- transformed Sf9 and T. ni cells secreted prM/E subviral particles. Particles were characterized and compared to those from a wild-type tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) complex virus, Langat (LGT) virus. The subviral particles recovered from supernatants of the stably-transformed cells were demonstrated to be spherical particles with a diameter of about 35 nm and a density of 1.14 g/cm3.
