title: Functional Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Genes Encoding the Human Deoxyribonuclease (DNase) Family Potentially Relevant to Autoimmunity

description: <b>Objective</b>: To continue our previous investigations, we have extensively investigated the function of the 61, 41, and 35 non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human genes encoding <i>DNASE1, DNASE1L3</i>, and <i>DNASE2</i>, respectively, potentially relevant to autoimmune diseases. <b>Methods</b>: The site-directed mutagenesis was employed to amino acid–substituted constructs corresponding to each SNP. The COS-7 cells were transfected with each vector and DNase activity was assayed by the single radial enzyme diffusion method. By using PolyPhen-2, changes in the DNase function of each non-synonymous SNP were predicted. Genotyping of all the non-synonymous SNPs was performed in 14 different populations including 3 ethnic groups using the polymerase chain reaction followed by the restriction fragment length polymorphism method. <b>Results</b>: Expression analysis demonstrated these SNPs to be classified into four categories with regard to the effect on DNase activity: SNPs not affecting the activity level, ones reducing it, ones abolishing it, and ones elevating it. In particular, 9, 5, and 4 SNPs producing a loss-of-function variant of the enzymes in <i>DNASE1, DNASE1L3</i>, and <i>DNASE2</i>, respectively, were confirmed. SNPs producing DNase loss of function can be estimated by PolyPhen-2 to be “probably damaging” with a high accuracy of prediction. Almost all of these functional SNPs producing a loss of function or substantially low activity-harboring forms exhibited a mono-allelic distribution in all of the populations. <b>Conclusion</b>: A minor allele of functional SNPs, despite the remarkably low genetic heterogeneity of the SNPs, might be a genetic risk factor for autoimmune diseases.

title: Using assistive robots to promote inclusive education

description: <b>Purpose</b>: This paper describes the development and test of physical and virtual integrated augmentative manipulation and communication assistive technologies (IAMCATs) that enable children with motor and speech impairments to manipulate educational items by controlling a robot with a gripper, while communicating through a speech generating device. <b>Method</b>: Nine children with disabilities, nine regular and nine special education teachers participated in the study. Teachers adapted academic activities so they could also be performed by the children with disabilities using the IAMCAT. An inductive content analysis of the teachers’ interviews before and after the intervention was performed. <b>Results</b>: Teachers considered the IAMCAT to be a useful resource that can be integrated into the regular class dynamics respecting their curricular planning. It had a positive impact on children with disabilities and on the educational community. However, teachers pointed out the difficulties in managing the class, even with another adult present, due to the extra time required by children with disabilities to complete the activities. <b>Conclusions</b>: The developed assistive technologies enable children with disabilities to participate in academic activities but full inclusion would require another adult in class and strategies to deal with the additional time required by children to complete the activities.

title: Empirically testing <i>Tonnetz</i>, voice-leading, and spectral models of perceived triadic distance

description: We compare three contrasting models of the perceived distance between root-position major and minor chords and test them against new empirical data. The models include a recent psychoacoustic model called spectral pitch-class distance, and two well-established music theoretical models – <i>Tonnetz</i> distance and voice-leading distance. To allow a principled challenge, in the context of these data, of the assumptions behind each of the models, we compare them with a simple “benchmark” model that simply counts the number of common tones between chords. Spectral pitch-class distance and <i>Tonnetz</i> have the highest correlations with the experimental data and each other, and perform significantly better than the benchmark. The voice-leading model performs worse than the benchmark. We suggest that spectral pitch-class distance provides a psychoacoustic explanation for perceived triadic distance and its music theory representation, the <i>Tonnetz</i>. The experimental data and the computational models are available in the Online Supplement (http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17459737.2016.1152517).

title: Embodiment and the origin of interval timing: kinematic and electromyographic data. [materials & dataset]

description: Supporting materials for the paper "Embodiment and the origin of interval timing: kinematic and electromyographic data." by same authors in Experimental Brain Research DOI:10.1007/s00221-016-4842-y<br>ABSTRACTRecent evidence suggests that interval timing (the judgment of durations lasting from approximately 500 ms. to a few minutes) is closely coupled to the action control system. We used surface electromyography (EMG) and motion capture technology to explore the emergence of this coupling in 4-, 6-, and 8-month-olds. We engaged infants in an active and socially relevant arm-raising task with 7 cycles and response period. In one condition cycles were slow (every 4 seconds) in another they were fast (every 2 seconds). In the slow condition, we found evidence of time locked sub-threshold EMG activity even in the absence of any observed overt motor responses at all 3 ages. This study shows that EMGs can be a more sensitive measure of interval timing in early development than overt behavior.INCLUDED FILES Experiment control scripts are included in the zip file: <b>Infant EMG matlab experiment scripts.zip</b><b><br></b>Matlab data analysis files are included in the zip file <b>analysis code.zip</b><b><br></b>Participant summary info - <b>Hands_Summary.xlsx</b><br>Motion capture timestamps for each cycle start by participant by block<b>Hands.MotionTimeStamps.4sec.csv</b><b>Hands.MotionTimeStamps.2sec.csv</b><br>Motion Capture z-axis data by participant by block<b>Hands.MotionData.4sec.csv</b><b>Hands.MotionData.2sec.csv</b><br>EMG timestamps for each cycle by participant by block<b>Hands.EMGTimeStamps.4sec.csv</b><b>Hands.EMGTimeStamps.2sec.csv</b><br>EMG data (infant bicep) by participant by block<b>Hands.MotionData.4sec.csv</b><b>Hands.MotionData.2sec.csv</b><br>Summary peak and trough data by particpant <b>EMG ANOVA by age 2sec.sav</b><b>EMG ANOVA by age 4sec.sav</b><br>Peak and trough data by participant by blockemg_anova2s4m.csvemg_anova2s6m.csvetc <b><br></b>

title: Genetic investigation of Italian domestic pigeons increases knowledge about the long-bred history of <i>Columba livia</i> (Aves: Columbidae)

description: In this study, we aimed to characterise the genetic diversity of Italian pigeon breeds and describe the relationships among them and other European lineages, conjecturing which processes have led to actual breeds. We analysed the eight most diffused Italian pigeon breeds in addition to 11 foreign lineages that could have shared common ancestors or have been used in the creation of the Italian breeds. We analysed 12 autosomal microsatellite loci in 427 samples collected from 19 breeds belonging to six main groups of domestic pigeons (tumblers and highflyers, structure, owls, wattle, utility and hen). Genetic variability did not differ considerably among breeds, with an average observed heterozygosity (<i>H</i><sub>O</sub>) of 0.550 ± 0.072 (max = 0.661 in breed Sottobanca; min = 0.411 in breed Frillback). The 21.34% of total genetic variation found was partitioned among breeds. Italian pigeon breeds were assigned coherently to their respective groups of origin. The analysis supports the origin of homing pigeons from English Carrier and the existence of a close relationship between Old Dutch Capuchine and Italian Owl. Despite the differences in body size, pigeons of the breeds belonging to the hen group are genetically very similar. The sub-populations recognised by breeders inside Italian Owl and Triganino are not genetically supported and their identification as new breeds ought not to be yet proposed, although they are morphologically distinguishable. Consequently, it could also be discussed how the genetic characterisation of domestic lineages could give useful information in breeding and selection processes.
