Variations in Protein Levels in Kansas Sorghum Grain1 (1964)

Synopsis Grain sorghum protein levels were found to vary from 6.6 to 12.8% in 1961 and from 5.9 to 12.1% in 1962. Significant differences were found due to location and hybrids. Fertilization resulted in both increased yields and increased protein level.
Mammalian Homolog of Drosophila Tumor Suppressor Lethal (2) Giant Larvae Interacts with Basolateral Exocytic Machinery in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney Cells (2002)

The Drosophila tumor suppressor protein lethal (2) giant larvae [l(2)gl] is involved in the establishment of epithelial cell polarity during development. Recently, a yeast homolog of the protein has been shown to interact with components of the post-Golgi exocytic machinery and to regulate a late step in protein secretion. Herein, we characterize a mammalian homolog of l(2)gl, called Mlgl, in the epithelial cell line Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK). Consistent with a role in cell polarity, Mlgl redistributes from a cytoplasmic localization to the lateral membrane after contact-naive MDCK cells make cell-cell contacts and establish a polarized phenotype. Phosphorylation within a highly conserved region of Mlgl is required to restrict the protein to the lateral domain, because a recombinant phospho-mutant is distributed in a nonpolar manner. Membrane-bound Mlgl from MDCK cell lysates was coimmunoprecipitated with syntaxin 4, a component of the exocytic machinery at the basolateral membrane, but not with other plasma membrane soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment receptor (SNARE) proteins that are either absent from or not restricted to the basolateral membrane domain. These data suggest that Mlgl contributes to apico-basolateral polarity by regulating basolateral exocytosis.
Use of sialic acid analogues to define functional groups involved in binding to the influenza virus hemagglutinin (1992)

The initial step of influenza infection is binding of the virus particles via their hemagglutinin to cell-surface sialic acids. This study was initiated to elucidate the functional groups of the nine-carbon sialic acid molecule which interact with the hemagglutinin and contribute to the affinity of this sugar to the protein. In order to address this question, synthetic sialic acid analogues were tested in a virus adsorption inhibition assay for their inhibitory potency. Modifications in three regions of the sialic acid molecule were evaluated: the glycerol side chain (C7-C9), the N-acetyl group at C5, and the carboxy group (C1). In the glycerol side chain, the hydroxy groups at C7 and C8 appear to be important for binding through hydrogen bonds, whereas the hydroxyl at C9 does not appear to be involved. The N-acetyl group is critical for the interaction of sialic acid with the hemagglutinin. The results suggest that its contribution is mediated through hydrophobic interactions of the methyl group. Finally, the orientation of the carboxy group is essential for the binding of sialic acid to the hemagglutinin. The information gained in this study will be useful in developing novel compounds which bind more avidly to the influenza virus hemagglutinin. Such a strategy may contribute to the design of new anti-influenza drugs.
A quantum chemical approach to the free energy calculations in condensed systems: The QM/MM method combined with the theory of energy representation (2004)

A methodology has been proposed to compute the solvation free energy of a molecule described quantum chemically by means of quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical method combined with the theory of energy representation (QM/MM-ER). The present approximate approach is quite simple to implement and requires much less computational cost as compared with the free energy perturbation or thermodynamic integration. Furthermore, the electron distribution can be treated faithfully as a quantum chemical object, and it is no longer needed to employ the artificial interaction site model, a reduced form of the realistic electron distribution, which is commonly used in the conventional solution theory. The point of the present approach is to employ the QM solute with electron density fixed at its average distribution in order to make the solute-solvent interaction pairwise. Then, the solvation free energy can be computed within the standard framework of the energy representation. The remaining minor contribution originating from the many-body effect inherent in the quantum mechanical description can be evaluated separately within a similar framework if necessary. As a test calculation, the method has been applied to a QM water solute solvated by MM water solvent in ambient and supercritical states. The results of the QM/MM-ER simulations have been in excellent agreement with the experimental values.

Glucose in Aqueous Solution by First Principles Molecular Dynamics (1998)

We present the results of the first ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, based on the Car−Parrinello method, of glucose in water, performed to investigate structural aspects of the anomeric equilibrium in aqueous solution. The analysis of the hydrogen bonds around the crucial anomeric oxygen shows a distinct solvation behavior for the β and α anomers. While the β anomer, which is the most abundant in water, allows the water molecules to flow in a disorderly manner around its anomeric site, the α anomer tends to bind them more tightly.
Efficient spectrum sharing and power control in cognitive radio networks (2007)

Cognitive radio technology solves the spectrum under utilization problem by enabling the secondary users access the spectrum holes opportunistically. In this paper, we are interested in how to share the spectrum holes among the secondary users, with the objective of maximizing the total spectrum utilization. We present a cross-layer design including spectrum sharing and power control. Spectrum sharing determines which neighbor a node will communicate with and which channel this communication will take place; power control decides which power level a node will use. We propose a Binary Integer Linear Programming (BILP) formulation, and use LINGO to find the optimal solution. With the assumption that all nodes transmit at a same power level, we find that there exists an optimal common power level at which the total spectrum utilization is maximized. Numerical results demonstrate that, using the optimal common power level not only improves the total spectrum utilization, but also reduces the complexity of the BILP problem.
Visual Sign Language Interpretation Using Spatial Temporal Neural Processing (2006)

An approach to recognizing human hand gestures from a monocular temporal sequence of color images is presented in this paper. The focus is on the representation and recognition of hand movements that are used in single handed (right hand is the dominant hand) American sign language (ASL). This work has been done with the help of markov chains while we have carried it out with STANN. The first level of decomposition is in terms of three sets of primitives, hand shape, location and movement. Further levels of decomposition involve the lexical and sentence levels and are part of future work. The approach has been trained and tested with an overall recognition of 100%
Cases Report on Conservative Treatment for the Chronic Closed Lock of Temporomandibular Joint (2011)

Some treatment methods have been proposed for patients with chronic closed lock of temporomandibular joint. We report a conservative treatment for patients who had chronic closed lock of temporomandibular joint and who did not want surgical treatment. Two patients who had been treated in the Template clinic, Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital, are the subjects of this report. The subjects had chronic closed lock symptom for over 3 months after an onset of locking; conventional therapies had no effect. The subjects were treated by making them wear a Template appliance while sleeping and exercise for 10 hours a day. After periodic follow-up, significant improvement was observed for Template treatment in terms of the maximal mouth opening range. When conventional therapy is expected to be ineffective, The Template appliance can be used as conservative treatment for temporomandibular disorders patients with chronic closed lock of temporomandibular joint.
The Influence of Cohesive Zone Modeling on the Stress Field and Energy Release Rates in a Cracked Elastic Body (2010)

The characteristic singular field at the tip of a crack in a linear elastic, homogeneous material was investigated by Williams, 1 who studied the planar stress field in a traction free wedge with vertex angle 2α.When α = π, the traction free surfaces of the wedge fold into a "mathematically sharp" crack with vanishing tip radius, resulting in a stress field that varies with distance, r, from the crack tip as r -1 2 .In this paper, a traction free plane stress wedge with a discrete cohesive zone along the intended crack-path is studied.Of interest is the influence of the cohesive zone on the crack tip stress field.Further, the influence of the cohesive zone on the strain energy release rate is also investigated.Two example problems are studied; a double cantilever beam and an infinitely wide plate with a through-the-thickness crack.The objective of this paper is to examine the conditions under which a cohesive zone model can be used to represent an intended crack-path without unduly altering the original problem being investigated.

Acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (1993)

Acute graft-versus-host disease is a two-step process. First, allorecognition of histocompatibility antigen activates T lymphocytes, which releases several cytokines, including interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor. Understanding of this activity resulted in new therapeutic approaches. Chronic graft-versus-host disease remains a very frequent and difficult problem to treat. Thalidomide was introduced as therapy for chronic graft-versus-host disease. Although basic research reported this year had no common theme, progress was made in many areas.

Status report on next-generation LADAR for driving unmanned ground vehicles (2004)

The U.S. Department of Defense has initiated plans for the deployment of autonomous robotic vehicles in various tactical military operations starting in about seven years. Most of these missions will require the vehicles to drive autonomously over open terrain and on roads which may contain traffic, obstacles, military personnel as well as pedestrians. Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) must therefore be able to detect, recognize and track objects and terrain features in very cluttered environments. Although several LADAR sensors exist today which have successfully been implemented and demonstrated to provide somewhat reliable obstacle detection and can be used for path planning and selection, they tend to be limited in performance, are effected by obscurants, and are quite large and expensive. In addition, even though considerable effort and funding has been provided by the DOD R&D community, nearly all of the development has been for target detection (ATR) and tracking from various flying platforms. Participation in the Army and DARPA sponsored UGV programs has helped NIST to identify requirement specifications for LADAR to be used for on and off-road autonomous driving. This paper describes the expected requirements for a next generation LADAR for driving UGVs and presents an overview of proposed LADAR design concepts and a status report on current developments in scannerless Focal Plane Array (FPA) LADAR and advanced scanning LADAR which may be able to achieve the stated requirements. Examples of real-time range images taken with existing LADAR prototypes will be presented.

[New activators of potassium channels: design, pharmacology and therapeutic perspectives]. (1995)

Potassium channels (K+ channels) constitute the most diverse group of ionic channels. One of them, the ATP-sensitive K+ channel (KATP channel), was identified in numerous tissues (smooth muscle, pancreatic B-cells, central nervous system,...). This channel is of particular interest for us since we have developed various pharmacological models for the study of new potassium channel openers. Among those, diazoxide (a benzothiadiazine dioxide) is an interesting reference compound since its biological activity was observed with comparable intensity on the vascular tissue (smooth muscle) as well as on the pancreatic tissue (endocrine tissue). One of our aims was the preparation of original pyridinic analogues of diazoxide (pyridothiadiazinedioxides) and their evaluation as potassium channel openers in order to show a tissue selectivity different from that of diazoxide. Indeed, therapeutic perspectives of potassium channel openers will depend upon the discovery of new classes of compounds exhibiting an effective tissue selectivity.

Parametric Versus Nonparametric Data-Aided Channel Estimation in a Multipath Fading Environment (2006)

This paper compares a parametric and a nonparametric channel estimation method in a multipath fading environment. In the parametric method the gains and delays are estimated and these estimates are used to compute the samples of the received symbol pulse. In the nonparametric method the samples of the received pulse are estimated directly, ignoring the underlying multipath channel structure. We compare these two channel estimation methods in terms of accuracy (characterized by the MSE on the samples of the received pulse) and computational complexity. We also investigate the influence of channel estimation errors on the BER of a decision feedback equalizer
FTTH-enabled digital home care &#x2014; A study of economic gains (2014)

We analyse the extent of the annual net cost reductions stemming from the introduction of four FTTH-enabled digital services for home care, as recently introduced in the Swedish city of Västerås. In total, between 2014 and 2020, it is projected that Sweden could save up to between €3 and €6 billion if such services were massively deployed today. The cost reductions are analysed for three different types of municipality. The article also shows that there is a significant cost reductions potential for a less extensive (and more realistic) deployment scenario with only 10% of users using digital services.
Damage studies of MeV Sb-implanted Si(100) by channeling and Raman spectroscopy (2000)

The radiation damage induced in Si(100) due to 1.5 MeV Sb ions has been studied as a function of fluence using the Rutherford backscattering/channeling (RBS/C) technique and Raman spectroscopy. The damage profiles have been extracted from the RBS/C spectra and the results compared with SRIM‘97 code calculations. For a fluence of 1×1014 ions/cm2, though the position of the damage profile is in agreement with the defect profile calculated using SRIM code, theory overestimates the damage in the surface region, suggesting dynamic self-beam annealing. The total amount of damage obtained as a function of implant dose exhibits two behaviors; a small net damage and a slow rate of damage accumulation for low fluences with a crossover to faster rates beyond a dose of 1×1013 ions/cm2. At this dose, a defected-amorphized zone of a critical size can form, which may easily enlarge by further accumulation of defects at higher fluences. The total damage has been compared with the results from Raman scattering and it is observed that the net damage as detected by Raman is slightly higher at the fluences where crystalline and amorphous zones coexist. The crystalline-to-amorphous (c/a) transition in Si as a function of fluence has been investigated by RBS/C and Raman scattering. The study demonstrates that Raman scattering is more effective in probing the small concentrations of defects produced during the early stages of c/a transition.
A Conducting Polymer Nanojunction Sensor for Glucose Detection (2004)

This paper presents a glucose sensor using conducting polymer/enzyme nanojunctions and demonstrates that unique features can arise when shrinking a sensor to the nanometer scale. Each nanojunction is formed by bridging a pair of nanoelectrodes separated with a small gap (20−60 nm) with polyaniline/glucose oxidase. The signal transduction mechanism of the sensor is based on the change in the nanojunction conductance as a result of glucose oxidation induced change in the polymer redox state. Due to the small size of the nanojunction sensor, the enzyme is regenerated naturally without the need of redox mediators, which consumes minimal amount of oxygen and at the same time gives very fast response (<200 ms). These features make the nanojunction sensor potentially useful for in vivo detection of glucose.
