description: The Lethal giant larvae (Lgl) tumor suppressor family is conserved from yeast to mammals and plays a critical yet controversial role in cell polarity. Studies on Drosophila Lgl suggest that its function in polarity is through regulation of the acto-myosin cytoskeleton. In contrast, studies on the yeast Lgl homologs, Sro7/Sro77, suggest a function in exocytosis through interaction with the t-SNARE Sec9. Using yeast/mammalian Lgl chimeras, we demonstrate that the overall architecture of Lgl proteins is highly conserved and that the C-terminal domain is the major site of SNARE interaction within both yeast and mammalian homologs. Importantly, we find that the ability of Lgl chimeras to function as the only source of Lgl in yeast correlates precisely with the ability to interact with the yeast t-SNARE. We report a novel interaction between Sro7 and the yeast myosin V, Myo2. However, we find that interactions with either Myo2 or Myo1 (myosin II) cannot account for the dramatic functional differences observed for these chimeras in yeast. These results provide the first demonstration that the interaction of an Lgl family member with a specific effector is critical to its function in vivo. These data support the model that the Lgl family functions in cell polarity, at least in part, by regulating SNARE-mediated membrane delivery events at the cell surface.

description: Let $M$ be a $(2 \times n)$ non-generic matrix of linear forms in a polynomial ring. For large classes of such matrices, we compute the cohomological dimension (cd) and the arithmetical rank (ara) of the ideal $I_2(M)$ generated by the $2$-minors of $M$. Over an algebraically closed field, any $(2 \times n)$-matrix of linear forms can be written in the Kronecker-Weierstrass normal form, as a concatenation of scroll, Jordan and nilpotent blocks. Bădescu and Valla computed $\mathrm{ara}(I_2(M))$ when $M$ is a concatenation of scroll blocks. In this case we compute $\mathrm{cd}(I_2(M))$ and extend these results to concatenations of Jordan blocks. Eventually we compute $\mathrm{ara}(I_2(M))$ and $\mathrm{cd}(I_2(M))$ in an interesting mixed case, when $M$ contains both Jordan and scroll blocks. In all cases we show that $\mathrm{ara}(I_2(M))$ is less than the arithmetical rank of the determinantal ideal of a generic matrix.

description: The diversity of neuronal cells, especially in the size and shape of their dendritic and axonal arborizations, is a striking feature of the mature nervous system. Dendritic branching is a complex process, and the underlying signaling mechanisms remain to be further defined at the mechanistic level 1, 2 and 3. Here we report the identification of shrub mutations that increased dendritic branching. Single-cell clones of shrub mutant dendritic arborization (DA) sensory neurons in Drosophila larvae showed ectopic dendritic and axonal branching, indicating a cell-autonomous function for shrub in neuronal morphogenesis. shrub encodes an evolutionarily conserved coiled-coil protein homologous to the yeast protein Snf7, a key component in the ESCRT-III (endosomal sorting complex required for transport) complex that is involved in the formation of endosomal compartments known as multivesicular bodies (MVBs) [4]. We found that mouse orthologs could substitute for Shrub in mutant Drosophila embryos and that loss of Shrub function caused abnormal distribution of several early or late endosomal markers in DA sensory neurons. Our findings demonstrate that the novel coiled-coil protein Shrub functions in the endosomal pathway and plays an essential role in neuronal morphogenesis.

description: In this paper, we study several issues in the linear equation-of-motion (EoM) and in-in approaches of computing the two-point correlation functions in multi-field inflation. We prove the equivalence between this EoM approach and the first-principle in-in formalism. We check this equivalence using several explicit examples, including cases with scale-invariant corrections and scale-dependent features. Motivated by the explicit proof, we show that the usual procedures in these approaches can be extended and applied to some interesting model categories beyond what has been studied in the literature so far. These include the density perturbations with strong couplings and correlated multi-field initial states.

description: The insect brain neuropeptide, prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH), elicits the molting process by stimulating ecdysteroidogenesis in the prothoracic glands. Changes in the subcellular distribution of PTTH during the fifth larval instar and larval-pupal metamorphosis of Bombyx were investigated using immunogold electron microscopy and computerized image analysis. A time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay was employed to quantify the hemolymph PTTH titer and the hemolymph ecdysteroid titer was determined by radioimmunoassay. Immunoreactivity was apparent only in the cytoplasm of two pairs of dorsal-lateral neurosecretory cells (La) in the brain, the prothoracicotropes, and their axons that traverse the peripheral area of the brain neuropil and then enter the neurohemal lobes of the corpora cardiaca and end in the corpora allata. Immunospecificity was evident as noted by the restriction of the 5-nm gold particles to the neurosecretory granules. Synaptic contacts were noted frequently between the dendritic collaterals of the prothoracicotropes and neighboring collaterals from other neurons. The morphological data suggest that PTTH is synthesized and released throughout the fifth larval instar. The concentration of gold particles in the neurosecretory granules and the number of neurosecretory granules increased five times during the fifth instar, and these increases were correlated with surges in the hemolymph PTTH and ecdysteroid titers. The data suggest that PTTH biosynthesis, secretory granule formation, and secretion are three continuous and almost synchronized events.
Inferences from the Distributions of Fast Radio Burst Pulse Widths, Dispersion Measures and Fluences

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: The widths, dispersion measures, dispersion indices and fluences of Fast Radio Bursts (FRB) impose coupled constraints that all models must satisfy. Observation of dispersion indices close to their low density limit of $-2$ sets a model-independent upper bound on the electron density and a lower bound on the size of any dispersive plasma cloud. The non-monotonic dependence of burst widths (after deconvolution of instrumental effects) on dispersion measure excludes the intergalactic medium as the location of scattering that broadens the FRB in time. Temporal broadening far greater than that of pulsars at similar high Galactic latitudes implies that scattering occurs close to the sources, where high densities and strong turbulence are plausible. FRB energetics are consistent with supergiant pulses from young, fast, high-field pulsars at cosmological distances. The distribution of FRB dispersion measures is inconsistent with expanding clouds (such as SNR). It excludes space-limited distributions (such as the local supercluster), but agrees with a homogeneous cosmological distribution with intergalactic dispersion. The FRB $\log{N}$--$\log{S}$ relation also indicates a cosmological distribution, aside from the anomalously bright Lorimer burst.

Prothoracicotropic Hormone Elicits a Rapid, Developmentally Specific Synthesis of β Tubulin in an Insect Endocrine Gland
Creators: name: Gilbert, Lawrence
name: Rybczynski, Robert
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1995

description: The production of ecdysteroid (molting) hormones by the insect prothoracic gland is controlled primarily by a brain neuropeptide hormone, prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH). PTTH stimulates also the specific synthesis of three proteins in the prothoracic glands of the tobacco hornworm Manduca sexta (Rybczynski and Gilbert, 1994). Here, one of these proteins, p50 is identified as a beta tubulin. The ability of PTTH to stimulate beta tubulin synthesis increased dramatically late on Day 3 of the 10-day fifth larval instar. At this time and later, beta tubulin synthesis in response to PTTH in vitro could be detected in some prothoracic glands 5-10 min after the onset of stimulation, and newly synthesized beta tubulin entered the microtubule pool within 12 min. Levels of beta tubulin in the glands of fifth instar larvae, measured by immunoblot, changed in a tissue-specific manner that paralleled or presaged circulating ecdysteroid levels. The accumulation of beta tubulin in PTTH-stimulated prothoracic glands resulted from increased transcription and translation and not from a decreased protein turnover rate. Pulse-chase experiments indicate that the newly synthesized beta tubulin had a very short half-life in vitro (approximately 0.5 hr). Studies with cycloheximide and actinomycin D indicated that beta tubulin synthesis and ecdysteroid synthesis are coregulated and that beta tubulin synthesis is regulated in a unique manner relative to most other prothoracic gland proteins. We conclude that beta tubulin levels may play an important role in ecdysteroidogenesis, perhaps by influencing the dynamics of microtubule-dependent secretion or interorganelle movement of ecdysteroid precursors.

description: Recent tests performed on the D-Wave Two quantum annealer have revealed no clear evidence of speedup over conventional silicon-based technologies. Here, we present results from classical parallel-tempering Monte Carlo simulations combined with isoenergetic cluster moves of the archetypal benchmark problem-an Ising spin glass-on the native chip topology. Using realistic uncorrelated noise models for the D-Wave Two quantum annealer, we study the best-case resilience, i.e., the probability that the ground-state configuration is not affected by random fields and random-bond fluctuations found on the chip. We thus compute classical upper-bound success probabilities for different types of disorder used in the benchmarks and predict that an increase in the number of qubits will require either error correction schemes or a drastic reduction of the intrinsic noise found in these devices. We outline strategies to develop robust, as well as hard benchmarks for quantum annealing devices, as well as any other computing paradigm affected by noise.

description: Remarkable simplification arises from considering vortex equations in the large winding limit. This was recently used in [1] to display all sorts of vortex zeromodes, the orientational, translational, fermionic as well as semi-local, and to relate them to the apparently distinct phenomena of the Nielsen-Olesen-Ambjorn magnetic instabilities. Here we extend these analyses to more general types of BPS nonAbelian vortices, taking as a prototype a system with gauged U(1) x SU(N) x SU(N) symmetry where the VEV of charged scalar fields in the bifundamental representation breaks the symmetry to SU(N)_{l+r} . The presence of the massless SU(N)_{l+r} gauge fields in 4D bulk introduces all sorts of non-local, topological phenomena such as the nonAbelian Aharonov-Bohm effects, which in the theory with global SU(N)_r group (g_r=0) are washed away by the strongly fluctuating orientational zeromodes in the worldsheet. Physics changes qualitatively at the moment the right gauge coupling constant g_r is turned on.

Spatial Redistribution of Poly(A)+ RNA during Polarization of the Fucus Zygote Is Dependent upon Microfilaments

description: Asymmetrical distribution of mRNA has been associated with polarization and cell fate determination during early development of animal embryos. In this report we determine the distribution pattern of poly(A)+ RNA during early embryogenesis of the brown alga Fucus. Poly(A)+ RNA is symmetrically distributed in the egg and early zygote. Shortly after the polar axis is established, poly(A)+ RNA becomes segregated to the thallus pole of the zygote. Following cytokinesis, most of poly(A)+ RNA is partitioned into the thallus cell. We show that the spatial redistribution of poly(A)+ RNA requires intact microfilaments and the fixation of the polar axis, but is not dependent upon polarized growth of the rhizoid, intact microtubules, or orientation of the division plane.
Potential capacities of quantum channels

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We introduce potential capacities of quantum channels in an operational way and provide upper bounds for these quantities, which quantify the ultimate limit of usefulness of a channel for a given task in the best possible context. Unfortunately, except for a few isolated cases, potential capacities seem to be as hard to compute as their "plain" analogues. We thus study upper bounds on some potential capacities: For the classical capacity, we give an upper bound in terms of the entanglement of formation. To establish a bound for the quantum and private capacity, we first "lift" the channel to a Hadamard channel and then prove that the quantum and private capacity of a Hadamard channel is strongly additive, implying that for these channels, potential and plain capacity are equal. Employing these upper bounds we show that if a channel is noisy, however close it is to the noiseless channel, then it cannot be activated into the noiseless channel by any other contextual channel; this conclusion holds for all the three capacities. We also discuss the so-called environment-assisted quantum capacity, because we are able to characterize its "potential" version.

description: Background: Theoretical calculations have shown that the energy and angular correlations in the three-body decay of the two-neutron unbound O26 can provide information on the ground-state wave function, which has been predicted to have a dineutron configuration and 2n halo structure. Purpose: To use the experimentally measured three-body correlations to gain insight into the properties of O26, including the decay mechanism and ground-state resonance energy. Method: O26 was produced in a one-proton knockout reaction from F27 and the O24+n+n decay products were measured using the MoNA-Sweeper setup. The three-body correlations from the O26 ground-state resonance decay were extracted. The experimental results were compared to Monte Carlo simulations in which the resonance energy and decay mechanism were varied. Results: The measured three-body correlations were well reproduced by the Monte Carlo simulations but were not sensitive to the decay mechanism due to the experimental resolutions. However, the three-body correlations were found to be sensitive to the resonance energy of O26. A 1σ upper limit of 53 keV was extracted for the ground-state resonance energy of O26. Conclusions: Future attempts to measure the three-body correlations from the ground-state decay of O26 will be very challenging due to the need for a precise measurement of the O24 momentum at the reaction point in the target.

description: We study a class of two-dimensional N=(2,2) supersymmetric gauge theories, given by semichiral multiplets coupled to the standard vector multiplet. In the UV, these theories are traditional gauge theories deformed by a gauged Wess-Zumino term. In the IR, they give rise to nonlinear sigma models on noncompact generalized Kähler manifolds, which contain a three-form flux H and whose metric is not Kähler. We place these theories on S^2 and compute their partition function exactly with localization techniques. We find that the contribution of instantons to the partition function that we define is insensitive to the deformation, and discuss our results from the point of view of the generalized Kähler target space.

description: This dissertation focuses on the examination of the influence of sample storage conditions on the accuracy and precision of hydrocarbon composition measurements of Jet A made with GC×GC/FID and the accuracy and precision of flash point measurements of Jet A made with a Tag closed cup flash point tester. Areas of focus also include the influence of the column load value used, the S/N threshold value used, and the number of measurements made for a single sample vial on the accuracy and precision of the GC×GC/FID results. This dissertation also describes the development of an analytical method for the identification and quantitation of alkylphenols in Jet A (which are the most abundant heteroatom containing compounds in jet fuel) by using preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (prep-HPLC) and two-dimensional gas chromatography with electron ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC/(+)EI TOF MS).

description: We report the presence of scattered light from dust grains located in the giant planet formation region of the circumbinary disk orbiting the ~20-Myr-old close (~0.045 AU separation) binary system V4046 Sgr AB based on observations with the new Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) instrument. These GPI images probe to within ~7 AU of the central binary with linear spatial resolution of ~3 AU, and are thereby capable of revealing dust disk structure within a region corresponding to the giant planets in our solar system. The GPI imaging reveals a relatively narrow (FWHM ~10 AU) ring of polarized near-infrared flux whose brightness peaks at ~14 AU. This ~14 AU radius ring is surrounded by a fainter outer halo of scattered light extending to ~45 AU, which coincides with previously detected mm-wave thermal dust emission. The presence of small grains that efficiently scatter starlight well inside the mm-wavelength disk cavity supports current models of planet formation that suggest planet-disk interactions can generate pressure traps that impose strong radial variations in the particle size distribution throughout the disk.

description: The Drosophila melanogaster ovarian tumor (otu gene, required for normal proliferation and differentiation of the female germ-line, encodes two cytoplasmic protein isoforms, 98 and 104 kDa. Mutants with defects in this gene are typically grouped into one of three phenotypic classes: quiescent (germ cells do not proliferate), oncogenic or tumorous (germ-line cells proliferate uncontrollably), and differentiated (germ-line cells initiate but do not complete differentiation). Analysis of transformants expressing only one of the otu isoforms showed that the 104-kDa isoform (otu-104) can rescue all classes of otu mutants, whereas only differentiated mutants are rescued to a significant extent by the 98-kDa isoform (otu-98). Western analysis of protein extracts prepared from ovaries of various developmental stages indicated that otu-104 predominates in predifferentiated stages, while otu-98 is prevalent in differentiated egg chambers. Immunolocalization experiments demonstrated that otu protein is present in the cytoplasm of oogonial stem cells that populate third instar larvae and in all germ-line-derived cells until late in oogenesis. In stage 10 egg chambers, otu protein shifts to the subcortical region of nurse cells. This type of analysis also showed that upon formation of a 16-cell syncytium otu-104, but not otu-98, preferentially accumulates in the developing oocyte cytoplasm. The otu11 mutant protein does not show this pattern of enhanced accumulation, nor does it occur in ovaries of egalitarian and Bicaudal-D mutants, which are defective in oocyte determination. Thus, these studies indicate that the 104-kDa isoform is required for normal proliferation of female germ-line cells and perhaps for oocyte differentiation. The 98-kDa isoform appears to be dispensable but can provide an otu function needed for the completion of oocyte maturation.

description: The cation-dependent and cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptors (CD- and CI-MPRs) bind the phosphomannosyl recognition marker of lysosomal hydrolases, but in mammals the latter also interacts with insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II). While IGF signaling is mediated by the type 1 IGF receptor (IGF1R), the type 2 receptor (IGF2R/CI-MPR) serves IGF-II turnover. Mouse mutants inheriting maternally a targeted disruption of the imprinted Igf2r gene, which is normally expressed only from the maternal allele, have increased serum and tissue levels of IGF-II and exhibit overgrowth (135% of normal birthweight) and generalized organomegaly, kinky tail, postaxial polydactyly, heart abnormalities, and edema. These mutants usually die perinatally, but a small minority can survive depending on genetic background and can occasionally reproduce, except for some females characterized by an imperforate vagina and hydrometrocolpos. Consistent with the hypothesis that lethality in the absence of IGF2R-mediated turnover is caused by excess of IGF-II overstimulating IGF1R, Igf2r mutants are completely rescued when they carry a second mutation eliminating either IGF-II or IGF1R. Normal embryonic development of the Igf1r/Igf2r double mutants, which differ from wild-type siblings only in the pattern of postnatal growth, appears to occur by signaling of IGF-II, being in excess, through a genetically identified unknown receptor, since triple mutants lacking IGF1R, IGF2R, and IGF-II are nonviable dwarfs (30% of normal size). In contrast with the Igf2r/Igf2 double mutants, mice lacking IGF2R/CI-MPR and CD-MPR survive in an IGF-II null background at a very low frequency and only for a few postnatal weeks, indicating that the mannose 6-phosphate-mediated lysosomal enzyme trafficking is essential for viability.

description: We demonstrate an experimental method for direct 2D and 3D imaging of magnetic radio-frequency (rf) field distribution in metal-dielectric structures based on traveling wave (TW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at ultra-high field (> 7T). The typical apparatus would include an ultra-high field whole body or small bore MRI scanner, waveguide elements filled with MRI active dielectrics with predefined electric and magnetic properties, and TW rf transmit-receive probes. We validated the technique by obtaining TW magnetic-resonance (MR) images of the magnetic field distribution of the rf modes of circular waveguide filled with deionized water in a 16.4 T small-bore MRI scanner and compared the MR images with numerical simulations. Our MRI technique opens up a practical non-perturbed way of imaging of previously inaccessible rf field distribution of modes inside of various shapes metal waveguides with inserted dielectric objects, including waveguide mode converters and transformers.

description: The next generation of large sky photometric surveys will finally be able to use arc statistics as a cosmological probe. Here we present the first of a series of papers on this topic. In particular, we study how arc counts are sensitive to the variation of two cosmological parameters: the (total) matter density parameter, $Ω_m$, and the normalisation of the primordial power spectrum, expressed in terms of $σ_8$. Both these parameters influence the abundances of collapsed structures and their internal structure. We compute the expected number of gravitational arcs with various length-to-width ratios in mock light cones, by varying these cosmological parameters in the ranges $0.1\leqΩ_m\leq0.5$ and $0.6\leqσ_8\leq 1$. We find that the arc counts dependence on $Ω_m$ and $σ_8$ is similar, but not identical, to that of the halo counts. We investigate how the precision of the constraints on the cosmological parameters based on arc counts depends on the survey area. We find that the constraining power of arc statistics degrades critically only for surveys covering an area smaller than $10\%$ of the whole sky. Finally, we consider the case in which the search for arcs is done only in frames where galaxy clusters have been previously identified. Adopting the selection function for galaxy clusters expected to be detected from photometric data in future wide surveys, we find that less than $10\%$ of the arcs will be missed, with only a small degradation of the corresponding cosmological constraints.

description: The cDNA encoding the TATA binding protein was isolated from 8- to 16-cell and morula-stage embryonic libraries of two distantly related species of sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus and Lytechinus variegatus, respectively. The two proteins are 96% identical over both the N- and C-terminal domains, suggesting a conservation of transcriptional processes between the two species. The prevalence of SpTBP transcripts at several developmental time points was determined using the tracer excess titration method, and the corresponding number of TBP protein molecules was determined by quantitative Western blot analysis. Our results indicate that the amount of TBP mRNA and protein per embryo remains relatively constant throughout development. An initial large pool of TBP protein (>10(9)) molecules in the egg becomes diluted as a consequence of cell division and decreases to about 2 x 10(6) molecules per cell by the gastrula stage. We found by in situ RNA hybridization that the oocyte contains a large amount of TBP mRNA which is depleted late in oogenesis so that the eggs and early embryos have extremely low levels of TBP mRNA. We conclude that the oocyte manufactures nearly all of the TBP protein necessary for embryogenesis.

description: The aim of this work is to determine the total integrated flux of cosmic radiation which a commercial aircraft is exposed to along specific flight trajectories. To study the radiation background during a flight and its modulation by effects such as altitude, latitude, exposure time and transient magnetospheric events, we perform simulations based on Magnetocosmics and CORSIKA codes, the former designed to calculate the geomagnetic effects on cosmic rays propagation and the latter allows us to simulate the development of extended air showers in the atmosphere. In this first work, by considering the total flux of cosmic rays from 5 GeV to 1 PeV, we obtained the expected integrated flux of secondary particles on board of a commercial airplane during the Bogotá-Buenos Aires trip by point-to-point numerical integration.

Self-detection of x-ray Fresnel transmissivity using photoelectron-induced gas ionization

description: Electric response of an x-ray mirror enclosed in a gas flow ionization chamber was studied under the conditions of total external reflection for hard x-rays. It is shown that the electric response of the system as a function of the incidence angle is defined by x-ray Fresnel transmissivity and photon-electron attenuation properties of the mirror material. A simple interpretation of quantum yield of the system is presented. The approach could serve as a basis for non-invasive in-situ diagnostics of hard x-ray optics, easy access to complementary x-ray transmissivity data in x-ray reflectivity experiments and might also pave the way to advanced schemes for angle and energy resolving x-ray detectors.
