description: The therapeutic potential of small molecule kinase inhibitors in cancer treatment is well recognized. However, achieving selectivity remains a formidable challenge, primarily due to the structural similarity of ATP binding pockets among kinases. Allosteric inhibition, which involves targeting binding pockets beyond the ATP-binding site, provides a promising alternative to overcome this challenge. In this study, a meticulous approach was implemented to prioritize type 3 inhibitors for LIMK2, employing a range of techniques including Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations, e-pharmacophore-guided High Throughput Virtual Screening (HTVS), MM/GBSA and ADMETox analyses, Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, and MM/PBSA investigations. The e-pharmacophore model identifies a hypothesis featuring five essential pharmacophoric elements (RRRAH). Through virtual screening of the ZINC compound database, we identified only five compounds that align with all four pharmacophoric features: ZINC1044382792, ZINC1433610865, ZINC1044109145, ZINC952869440, and ZINC490621334. These compounds not only exhibit higher binding affinity but also demonstrate favorable ADME/Tox profiles. Molecular dynamics simulations underscore the stability of hydrogen bond interactions with critical cryptic LIMK2 pocket residues, Asp469 and Arg474, only for two compounds: ZINC143361086 and ZINC1044382792. These compounds also exhibit superior occupancy interactions, as indicated by HOMO-LUMO analysis. Additionally, binding free energy calculations highlight the significant affinities of these two compounds when complexed with LIMK2: −83.491 ± 1.230 kJ/mol and −90.122 ± 1.248 kJ/mol for ZINC1044382792 and ZINC1433610862, respectively. Hence, this comprehensive investigation identifies ZINC1433610862 and ZINC1044382792 as prospective hits, representing promising leads for targeting LIMK2 in cancer therapeutics.

description: The 2007-2008 food crisis and current food price swings led economists to re-evaluate the potential for policy instruments to manage food price volatility. Many developing countries recently pursued price regulation policies, but the difficulties of these policies in promoting price stability is not fully understood. In particular, the ability of a stabilization policy to lower food price volatility does not depend on the nature of the policy instrument only, but also on the institutional conditions of its implementation. Kenya is a particularly interesting case as it is characterized by a rather long tradition of public intervention, and by the persistence of highly volatile prices. The consistency of the policy use appears to be key factor influencing the degree of price volatility. Applied to trade policies, this consistency is defined by the temporal relationship between the tariff level and the international price changes. To test the influence of policy consistency on price volatility, we develop an autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic model of price determination in which prices and prices volatility are jointly estimated, using monthly data over the 1994-2009 period in Kenya.

description: Although authorities advocate breastfeeding for at least six months as the ideal form of infant nutrition, employed mothers may experience barriers to breastfeeding. Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, this study examined the relationship between maternal employment, workplace support, and breastfeeding duration. In general, it was predicted that paid employment following childbirth would have a negative impact on breastfeeding duration. In addition, existence of workplace support such as flexibility, childcare, and/or healthcare benefits was predicted to positively impact breastfeeding durations as well as job satisfaction upon returning to work. Hierarchical linear regression analysis offered support for some of the hypotheses. While hours worked per week was found to have a significant negative relationship with breastfeeding duration, time spent at home before returning to employment did not significantly affect breastfeeding duration. No significant difference in breastfeeding duration was found for professionals versus non-professionals. In addition, the existence of family-friendly benefits and job flexibility were not significant predictors of breastfeeding duration. Employer provided or subsidized child-care was significantly related to overall job satisfaction among breastfeeding women. Database limitations and significance of findings are discussed.
Deriving phase field crystal theory from dynamical density functional theory: consequences of the approximations

description: Phase field crystal (PFC) theory, extensively used for modelling the structure of solids, can be derived from dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) via a sequence of approximations. Standard derivations neglect a term of form $\nabla\cdot[n\nabla L n]$, where $n$ is the scaled density profile and $L$ is a linear operator. We show that this term makes a significant contribution to the stability of the crystal, and dropping this term from the theory forces another approximation, that of replacing the logarithmic term from the ideal gas contribution to the free energy with its truncated Taylor expansion, to yield a polynomial in $n$. However, the consequences of doing this are the presence of an additional spinodal in the phase diagram, so the liquid is predicted first to freeze and then to melt again as the density is increased; and other periodic structures are erroneously predicted to be thermodynamic equilibria. A second approximation is to replace $L$ by a gradient expansion. This leads to the possibility of solutions failing to exist above a certain value of the average density. We illustrate these conclusions with a simple model two-dimensional fluid. The consequences of the PFC approximations are that the phase diagram is both qualitatively incorrect, in that it has a stripe phase, and quantitatively incorrect (by orders of magnitude) regarding the properties of the crystal. Thus, although PFC models are successful as phenomenological models of crystallisation, we find it impossible to derive the PFC model as an accurate approximation to DDFT, without introducing spurious artefacts. However, making a simple one-mode approximation for the logarithm of the density distribution is surprisingly accurate, which gives a tantalising hint that accurate PFC-type theories may instead be derived for the field $\log(ρ(x))$, rather than for the density profile itself.

description: We present near-infrared spectra of ``A2'', the primary counter arc to the gravitationally lensed galaxy MS1512-cB58. The spectra showredshifted H-alpha, [NII], [OIII], and H-beta at z=2.728 +/- 0.001. We observe the same H-alpha/[OIII] ratio as cB58, which together with the redshift confirms that A2 is indeed another image of a single background galaxy. Published lensing reconstruction reports that A2 is a magnification of the entire source, while cB58 is an image of only a part. At marginal significance, A2 shows higher line to continuum ratios than cB58 (by a factor of about 2), suggesting a non-uniform ratio of young to old stars across the galaxy. We observe a second emission line source in the slit. This object, ``W5'', is predicted to be a lensed image of another galaxy at a redshift similar to cB58. W5 is blueshifted from cB58 by about 400 km/s and has a significantly lower H-alpha/[OIII] ratio, confirming that it is an image of a different background galaxy in a group with cB58. The H-alpha emission line in W5 implies a star formation rate of 6 Msun/yr (H_0 = 70 km/s/Mpc, Omega_M=0.3, Omega_L=0.7), after correcting for lensing magnification.

description: This article discriminates a didactic process that calculates the size of the crystalline domain having as reference 5 Ni50Ti50-XHfX .at% substitutional compositions obtained by electric arc fusion. By the results of XRD tests made on these samples, the FWHM values (width at half height) in more intense peaks from two types of radiation (Kα and Kα1) are taken in order to obtain the Beta values. Based on them the Scherrer equation is used to calculate the crystalline domain, whose value is multiplied by single correction factor at all angles 2θ in which peaks occur.
On the correlation between the recent star formation rate in the Solar Neighbourhood and the glaciation period record on Earth

description: Shaviv (2003) has shown evidence for a correlation between variations in the Galactic cosmic ray flux reaching Earth and the glaciation period record on Earth during the last 2 Gyr. If the flux of cosmic rays is mainly the result of Type II supernovae, an additional correlation between the star formation history of the Solar Neighbourhood and the timing of past ice ages is expected. Higher star formation rate implies increased cosmic ray flux and this may translate into colder climate through a rise in the average low altitude cloud cover. Here we reanalyze the correlation between this star formation history and the glaciation period record on Earth using a volume limited open cluster sample. Numerical modeling and recent observational data indicate that the correlation is rather strong but only if open clusters within 1.5 kpc from the Sun are considered.

description: Braiding Majorana zero modes is essential for fault-tolerant topological quantum computing. Iron-based superconductors with nontrivial band topology have recently emerged as a surprisingly promising platform for creating distinct Majorana zero modes in magnetic vortices in a single material and at relatively high temperatures. The magnetic field-induced Abrikosov vortex lattice makes it difficult to braid a set of Majorana zero modes or to study the coupling of a Majorana doublet due to overlapping wave functions. Here we report the observation of the proposed quantum anomalous vortex with integer quantized vortex core states and the Majorana zero mode induced by magnetic Fe adatoms deposited on the surface. We observe its hybridization with a nearby field-induced Majorana vortex in iron-based superconductor FeTe0.55Se0.45. We also observe vortex-free Yu-Shiba-Rusinov bound states at the Fe adatoms with a weaker coupling to the substrate, and discover a reversible transition between Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states and Majorana zero mode by manipulating the exchange coupling strength. The dual origin of the Majorana zero modes, from magnetic adatoms and external magnetic field, provides a new single-material platform for studying their interactions and braiding in superconductors bearing topological band structures.

description: There has been an interest in replanting generic wine grape varieties; however, the prices of these grapes have been in the range of $200-250 per ton in recent years, low by historical standards. There is a need to identify varieties which are useful and profitable to the winery, consistent in production, and which can be efficiently produced in New York vineyards so that the value of the grapes to the winery better matches the cost of grape production. Elvira may be one variety which meets these criteria. This research was undertaken to (1) evaluate the yields, costs, and practices associated with replanting and growing Elvira grapes using the soil and managerial resources of New York growers; and (2) to evaluate the profitability and financial feasibility for these growers to convert their existing vineyards to the Elvira variety. Mail questionnaires were sent to 50 of Elvira growers to assess the size of operation, land use, Elvira acreage and yields, training system, pruning practices, cash expenses and farm debt. Removal and replanting costs for site preparation, year of planting, and second and third year of development were estimated at $4,606 per acre. This results in an annual cost of capital recovery of $488 per year for the 22 years remaining life of the vineyard. Average debt per acre of grapes for the 23 farms who responded on the survey was $848 per acre. Five year average yields (1991-1995) for the respondents was 7.5 tons per acre for the Elvira acreage. At an average price of $202 per ton, returns to management were -$143 per acre. At an average yield of 7.5 tons per acre, a price of $221 per ton would be necessary to break even. Conversely, at an average price of $202 per ton, the break even yield was 8.4 tons per acre. Growers should consider the risk that is involved in replanting a vineyard. For example, prices may decline over time, or yields may not average those projected at the time of planting. Also, Elvira has limited marketing alternatives. Other varieties (e.g. Aurore, Cayuga White, or Melody) are also adaptable to high yielding, labor efficient technology, but have more potential alternative markets than Elvira.

description: Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted considerable interest due to their unique properties and prospective uses in various industries. However, their potential toxicity, particularly regarding enzyme inhibition, has become a growing concern. In this study, a QSAR model was proposed to predict the enzyme inhibition toxicity of ILs. A dataset of diverse ILs with corresponding toxicity data against three enzymes was compiled. Molecular descriptors that capture the physicochemical, structural, and topological properties of the ILs were calculated. To optimize the selection of descriptors and develop a robust QSAR model, the chaotic spotted hyena optimization algorithm, a novel nature-inspired metaheuristic, was employed. The proposed algorithm efficiently searches for an optimal subset of descriptors and model parameters, enhancing the predictive performance and interpretability of the QSAR model. The developed model exhibits excellent predictive capability, with high classification accuracy and low computation time. Sensitivity analysis and molecular interpretation of the selected descriptors provide insights into the critical structural features influencing the toxicity of ILs. This study showcases the successful application of the chaotic spotted hyena optimization algorithm in QSAR modelling and contributes to a better understanding of the toxicity mechanisms of ILs, aiding in the design of safer alternatives for industrial applications.

This dynamically extensible system is an example of the software system at the agent level of abstraction. This level of abstraction considers agents as atomic entities that communicate to implement the functionality of the control system. Agents engineering aspects are addressed by adopting the domain independent software standard, formulated by FIPA. Jade core Java classes are used as a FIPA specification implementation. A special, lightweight, XML RDFS based, control oriented, ontology markup language is developed to standardize the description of the arbitrary control system data processor. Control processes, described in this language, are integrated into the global system at runtime, without actual programming. Fault tolerance and recovery issues are also addressed.

Water planners and managers want their decisions to be based on the best available information. Yet, too often, there is a lack of two-way dialogue between suppliers of scientific information (e.g., researchers) and potential users of scientific information (e.g., water utilities) that creates barriers and can lead to inappropriate uses. This presentation by Dr. Julie Vano promotes a conversation on how we might overcome these barriers. Dr. Vano will share details about newly released guidance on Dos and Don’ts for using climate information for water resources planning and management and highlight several complementary efforts, done in partnership with decision makers, to share information and foster engagement to improve climate resilience. This is the fourth webinar in the ESIP 2019 Webinar Series ‘Data to Action: Increasing the Use and Value of Earth Science Data and Information.’ Contributors
Dr. Julie Vano is a project scientist in the Hydrometeorological Applications Program at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Her current work aims to better connect climate science and the water management community and use these connections to develop innovative ways to address climate impacts on local water resources. For the past four years she has helped lead a growing “science to action” grassroots coalition within the American Geophysical Union (AGU) that is focused on fostering better engagement between scientists and decision-makers, and as of this year is the President-Elect of AGU’s Societal Impacts and Policy Sciences section. She holds an M.S. in Land Resources from the University of Wisconsin and a PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the University of Washington.

O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar os efeitos gerados pela industrialização, no que concerne às demandas sociais dos municípios fluminenses. A metodologia deste trabalho consiste na aplicação da análise fatorial exploratória e da análise de clusters — métodos para interpretação de dados - para orientar o processo de tomada de decisão em questões relacionadas em políticas compensatórias. Conclui-se que o processo industrialização e urbanização gera impactos na estrutura do emprego urbano e na dinâmica migratória, o que, por sua vez, pode refletir na infra-estrutura e nas condições de vida da população. ------------------------------------------------------- The industrialization process is often marked by diversity of situations and heterogeneity due to internalization of the urban phenomenon of rapid urbanization frontier areas of economic growth in mid-sized cities, the centers peripherization urban formation and consolidation of urban agglomerations, among other aspects.

description: Monitoring migration flows is crucial to respond to humanitarian crisis and to design efficient policies. This information usually comes from surveys and border controls, but timely accessibility and methodological concerns reduce its usefulness. Here, we propose a method to detect migration flows worldwide using geolocated Twitter data. We focus on the migration crisis in Venezuela and show that the calculated flows are consistent with official statistics at country level. Our method is versatile and far-reaching, as it can be used to study different features of migration as preferred routes, settlement areas, mobility through several countries, spatial integration in cities, etc. It provides finer geographical and temporal resolutions, allowing the exploration of issues not contemplated in official records. It is our hope that these new sources of information can complement official ones, helping authorities and humanitarian organizations to better assess when and where to intervene on the ground.

Subjects: Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety

description: Postwar variations from prewar levels in income, expenditures, and prices have necessitated the reconsideration and re-evaluation of our ideas of consumer demandfor food. The Bureau of Agricultural Economics has been devoting attention to the improvement of food consumption data and analyses, particularly those which are useful in forecasting demand in terms of quantities and prices. This article, prepared under the Agricultural Research and Marketing Act of 1946, analyzes relationships between food expenditures and income, including an appraisal of the static and dynamic forces involved.

description: Progress of theories and experiments of the quantum valence criticality is overviewed focusing on recent discoveries of direct evidence of quantum critical point of valence transitions in periodic crystal $α$-YbAl$_{1-x}$Fe$_x$B$_4$ at $x=0.014$ and quasicrystal Yb$_{15}$(Al$_{1-x} $Ga$_{x}$)$_{34}$(Au$_{1-y}$Cu$_{y}$)$_{51}$ at $x=y=0$. The common quantum criticality as well as $T/B$ scaling behavior in the magnetization observed in the periodic crystal $β$-YbAlB$_4$ and quasicrystal Yb$_{15}$Al$_{34}$Au$_{51}$ is shown to be explained from the theory of critical Yb-valence fluctuations starting from the Hamiltonians for describing the low-energy electronic states in both systems.

description: Gastric ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori and Fusobacterium nucleatum remain a significant global health concern without an established vaccine. In this study, we utilized immunoinformatics methods to design a multi-epitope vaccine targeting these pathogens. Outer membrane proteins from H. pylori and F. nucleatum were scrutinized to identify high antigenic T-cell and B-cell epitopes. The resulting vaccine comprised carefully analyzed and evaluated epitopes, including cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, helper T-lymphocytes, and linear B-lymphocytes epitopes. This vaccine exhibited notable antigenicity, suitable immunogenicity, and demonstrated non-allergenicity and non-toxicity. It displayed favorable physiochemical characteristics and high solubility. In interaction studies, the vaccine exhibited robust binding to toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Molecular dynamic simulations revealed cohesive structural integrity and stable attachment. Codon adaptation utilizing Escherichia coli K12 host yielded a vaccine with elevated Codon Adaptation Index (CAI) and optimal GC content. In silico cloning into the pET28+(a) vector demonstrated efficient expression. Immune simulations indicated the vaccine’s ability to initiate immune responses in humans, mirroring real-life scenarios. Based on these comprehensive findings, we propose that our developed vaccine has the potential to confer robust immunity against H. pylori and F. nucleatum infections.

The Galactic disk mass function: reconciliation of the HST and nearby determinations
Creators: name: Chabrier, Gilles
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We derive and parametrize the Galactic mass function (MF) below 1 $\msol$ characteristic of both single objects and binary systems. We resolve the long standing discrepancy between the MFs derived from the HST and from the nearby luminosity functions, respectively. We show that this discrepancy stemmed from {\it two} cumulative effects, namely (i) incorrect color-magnitude determined distances, due a substantial fraction of M dwarfs in the HST sample belonging to the metal-depleted, thick-disk population, as corrected recently by Zheng et al. and (ii) unresolved binaries. We show that both the nearby and HST MF for unresolved systems are consistent with a fraction $\sim $50% of M-dwarf binaries, with the mass of both the primaries and the companions originating from the same underlying single MF. This implies that $\sim$30% of M dwarfs should have an M dwarf companion and $\sim$20% should have a brown dwarf companion, in agreement with recent determinations. The present calculations show that the so-called "brown-dwarf desert" should be reinterpreted as a lack of high mass-ratio $(m_2/m_1\la 0.1$) systems, and does not preclude a substantial fraction of brown dwarfs as companions of M dwarfs or for other brown dwarfs.

description: Over the last few years several groups have experimented with the use of "observation" techniques for measuring the retail movement of fresh produce during a short period of time—a few days or a week. Some investigators have stated that the observation technique offers unique statistical as well as collection advantages. The present investigation was undertaken to compare the relative efficiency of the observation technique with the standard retail audit method, and to develop an efficient system of using observation techniques for measuring retail sales. This study, involving only apples and pears, was conducted in Philadelphia by Audits and Surveys Company, Inc., under contract with the Agricultural Marketing Service.

description: Discoveries of the scale-free and small-world features are reported on a network constructed from the seismic data. It is shown that the connectivity distribution decays as a power law, and the value of the degrees of separation, i.e., the characteristic path length or the diameter, between two earthquakes (as the vertices) chosen at random takes a small value between 2 and 3. The clustering coefficient is also calculated and is found to be about 10 times larger than that in the case of the completely random network. These features highlight a novel aspect of seismicity as a complex phenomenon.

description: We study some general properties of coupled quantum systems. We consider simple interactions between two copies of identical Hamiltonians such as the SYK model, Pauli spin chains with random magnetic field and harmonic oscillators. Such couplings make the ground states close to the thermofield double states of the uncoupled Hamiltonians. For the coupled SYK model, we push the numerical computation further towards the thermodynamic limit so that an extrapolation in the size of the system is possible. We find good agreement between the extrapolated numerical result and the analytic result in the large-$q$ limit. We also consider the coupled gauged matrix model and vector model, and argue that the deconfinement is associated with the loss of the entanglement, similarly to the previous observation for the coupled SYK model. The understanding of the microscopic mechanism of the confinement/deconfinement transition enables us to estimate the quantum entanglement precisely, and backs up the dual gravity interpretation which relates the deconfinement to the disappearance of the wormhole. Our results demonstrate the importance of the entanglement between the color degrees of freedom in the emergence of the bulk geometry from quantum field theory via holography.
