TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you are given a abstract of article and corresponding title of an article. Your task is to generate label "yes" if title is right for article, otherwise generate "no".
PROBLEM: Abstract: Transnationalism and identity are concepts that inherently call for juxtaposition. This is so because many peoples' transnational networks of exchange and participation are grounded upon some perception of common identity; conversely, the identities of numerous individuals and groups of people are negotiated within social worlds that span more than one place. In this introductory article, the transnational perspective on migration studies is first discussed, followed by some critiques and outstanding questions. The final section summarises points raised by the contributing authors of the main articles in this themed issue of JEMS, especially with regard to various ways transnational settings and dynamics affect the construction, negotiation and reproduction of identities.. Title: Transnationalism and identity

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Abstract: Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins mediate heritable gene silencing by modifying chromatin structure. An essential PcG complex, PRC1, compacts chromatin and inhibits chromatin remodeling. In Drosophila melanogaster, the intrinsically disordered C-terminal region of PSC (PSC-CTR) mediates these noncovalent effects on chromatin, and is essential for viability. Because the PSC-CTR sequence is poorly conserved, the significance of its effects on chromatin outside of Drosophila was unclear. The absence of folded domains also made it difficult to understand how the sequence of PSC-CTR encodes its function. To determine the mechanistic basis and extent of conservation of PSC-CTR activity, we identified 17 metazoan PSC-CTRs spanning chordates to arthropods, and examined their sequence features and biochemical properties. PSC-CTR sequences are poorly conserved, but are all highly charged and structurally disordered. We show that active PSC-CTRs--which bind DNA tightly and inhibit chromatin remodeling efficiently--are distinguished from less active ones by the absence of extended negatively charged stretches. PSC-CTR activity can be increased by dispersing its contiguous negative charge, confirming the importance of this property. Using the sequence properties defined as important for PSC-CTR activity, we predicted the presence of active PSC-CTRs in additional diverse genomes. Our analysis reveals broad conservation of PSC-CTR activity across metazoans. This conclusion could not have been determined from sequence alignments. We further find that plants that lack active PSC-CTRs instead possess a functionally analogous PcG protein, EMF1. Thus, our study suggests that a disordered domain with dispersed negative charges underlies PRC1 activity, and is conserved across metazoans and plants.. Title: A core subunit of Polycomb repressive complex 1 is broadly conserved in function but not primary sequence.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Abstract: Maintenance of immunological self-tolerance requires lymphocytes carrying self-reactive antigen receptors to be selectively prevented from mounting destructive or inflammatory effector responses. Classically, self-tolerance is viewed in terms of the removal, editing, or silencing of B and T cells that have formed self-reactive antigen receptors during their early development. However, B cells activated by foreign antigen can enter germinal centers (GCs), where they further modify their antigen receptor by somatic hypermutation (SHM) of their immunoglobulin genes. The inevitable emergence of activated, self-reactive GC B cells presents a unique challenge to the maintenance of self-tolerance that must be rapidly countered to avoid autoantibody production. Here we discuss current knowledge of the mechanisms that enforce B cell self-tolerance, with particular focus on the control of self-reactive GC B cells. We also consider how self-reactive GC B cells can escape self-tolerance to initiate autoantibody production or instead be redeemed via SHM and used in productive antibody responses..
