    A new paradigm for catalyst design through chemoinformatics utilizing quantitative structure activity relationship was investigated. Under this platform, two ‘core’ catalyst scaffolds were chosen. First, Cinchona alkaloids were studied against an asymmetric phase transfer catalyzed cyclopropanation reaction. Second, (R)-BINOL derived phosphoric acids were studied in regards to the brønsted acid catalyzed Ugi reaction. In regards to Cinchona alkaloids, the concentration was first on methodology develop to rapidly synthesize diverse Cinchona-like analogs in a highly enantioenriched fashion. Systematic examination of the C(9) aryl substitution on Cinchona-alkaloids would determine the overall steric and electronic roles of the C(9) position on catalyst activity. An asymmetric metalation of quinuclidine N–oxide and trapping of various aldehydes was explored. Quinuclidine was utilized as the bulk starting material. An improved synthesis of quinuclidine was developed through a Henbest modified Wolff-Kishner reduction of 3-quinuclidone. The poor solubility of quinuclidine N-oxide made an asymmetric lithiation was elusive. An alternative method was to resolve the resulting Cinchona-alkaloids from a racemic metalation and trapping. The foremost resolution method was a kinetic acylation of the resultant amino alcohol. However only a modest selectivity factor (6.4) was observed and not synthetically useful. The second ‘core’ investigated was (R)-BINOL derived phosphoric acids. The formation of the BPA catalysts was a synthetic collaboration, in order to rapidly access the fifty member training set. Several improvements were implemented in the synthesis of the (R)-BINOL backbone derivatives. The partial hydrogenation of (R)-BINOL occurred at a lower: temperature (24 °C), Adam’s catalyst loading (5 mol %), and pressure (150 psi) after only 24 hours. The bromination of dimethylated (R)-BINOL was optimized with Br2 as opposed to a soluble bromine source. A total of 20 catalysts were synthesized. A classical Ugi reaction was investigated using the isolated imine, to exclude the formation of Passerini byproducts. Since the Ugi reaction is traditionally catalyzed by the carboxylic acid component, the background reaction could serve as a significant problem. Optimization of the Ugi reaction occurred through a temperature and solvent survey. The background reaction was minimized in toluene at – 78 °C. The pKa dependence on brønsted acid catalysis of the Ugi reaction was demonstrated that both phosphoric acids and triflamides catalyzed the Ugi reaction. The low solubility of phosphoric acids in toluene lead to the exclusive use of phosphoramide catalysts. Ten BPA catalysts were screened and resulted in isolated enantioenriched amide, albeit in low selectivity (er 55:45). To combat a reversible stereodetermining isocyanide imine addition, a tethered Ugi reaction was investigated. By attaching the carboxylic acid to the imine, the capture of the nitrile with the carboxylic acid becomes an intramolecular reaction. An increased rate of nitrile capture would decrease the reversibility of the stereodetermining step. After a solvent survey, a solvent combination of toluene and benzotrifluoride (4:1) at room temperature was found to have a suppressed background reaction, due to minimal imine acid solubility. Twenty BPA catalysts were screened and an enantioenriched lactam was isolated, albeit low selectivity (er 55:54). Reversibility of the stereodetermining step remains a significant challenge.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2019-12-01The student, Rebecca Leising, accepted the attached license on 2017-10-10 at 12:08.The student, Rebecca Leising, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2017-10-10 at 13:45.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2017-10-12 at 15:09.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #11674 on 2018-03-13 at 09:55:17Made available in DSpace on 2018-03-13T15:21:03Z (GMT).

    \ua9 2025 The Author(s). United European Gastroenterology Journal published by Wiley Periodicals LLC on behalf of United European Gastroenterology.Background: Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy lacks established key performance indicators. Up to three-fold variation in post endoscopy upper gastrointestinal cancer rates has been observed among endoscopy providers in England, highlighting the need for standardisation of UGI endoscopy practices. Objective: We aimed to achieve consensus on evidence-based key performance indicators to reduce post endoscopy upper gastrointestinal cancer. Methods: Modified nominal group technique was employed in two consensus workshops, with representation from clinicians, patients and relatives, moderated by James Lind Alliance facilitators. Potential indicators were identified from the umbrella systematic review, English provider post endoscopy upper gastrointestinal cancer rates, and differences in endoscopy practices from the National Endoscopy Database between providers with the highest (worst) and lowest (best) post endoscopy upper gastrointestinal cancer rates. KPIs were categorised as provider or endoscopist/procedure related and ranked as of major or minor importance. Minimum standards were proposed where possible. Results: Participants included 14 clinicians (gastroenterologists and UGI surgeons), 3 nurse endoscopists, 2 UGI cancer nurse specialists, 14 patients, their relatives and representatives from patient support groups and four observers. Endoscopy provider related major key performance indicators and proposed standards included monitoring post endoscopy upper gastrointestinal cancer rates (minimum standard ≤ 7%); less intense endoscopy lists (maximum 10 ‘points’ per list [one point is equivalent to 15 min]); endoscopy provider accreditation (all providers); and premalignant condition surveillance on dedicated lists by endoscopists with adequate training (> 90% surveillance endoscopies). Endoscopist/procedure related major key performance indicators included: examination time ≥ 7 min; training in early UGI neoplasia recognition (all endoscopists); mucosal view quality recorded and cleansing agents used if not excellent (> 90% endoscopies); intravenous sedation offered to all appropriate patients; recommended number of biopsies from cancer associated or premalignant lesions (> 90% endoscopy where such lesions identified); and endoscopists\u27 annual UGI endoscopy volume > 100 (all endoscopists). Conclusion: This study offers a consensus on the key performance indicators and minimum standards that should be used to improve UGI endoscopy quality and reduce post endoscopy upper gastrointestinal cancer

    Qur’anic exegeses have many variants in terms of sources, methods and languages. Some Qur’anic exegeses using tah}li&gt;li&gt; or mawd}u&gt;’&gt;i method are even written in a local language. This article elucidates the Bugese Muslim scholar thoughts in their work Tafsere Akorang Mabbasa Ugi regarding Muslim and Non-Muslim relations. Using historical approach and content analysis, the author traces the thematic Qur’anic verses on Muslims and non-Muslim relations and the actual practices of interactions between the Prophet Muhammad and non-Muslims. It shows that the verses do not limit interactions and cooperation in the name of religion. Such interactions are limitless to non-Muslims. The acknowledgment on the existence of others and the prominence in ethical attitudes towards them are keywords in maintaining harmonious and tolerant interreligious communication and relations. There are universal and particular values of religion. While the universal values serve as a common denominator for all religions, the particular values are specific to each religious tradition that must be fully tolerated and respected because these are sensitive aspects that may stimulate conflicts.</em

    International audienceAlso, after having defined in the introduction, the characteristics of literary tourism, our communication will be articulated around four particular stages: first, we will present examples of literary tourism implemented in French rural areas. In the second place, it will be for us to take stock of tourist offers of this same type concerning this time the Vietnamese campaigns. In the third place, we will show that there exists a real literary potential, which is not limited to the only writings of Marguerite Duras. Finally, we will (modestly) mention tourist circuit trails. These can be of two main types; on the one hand, the biographical circuit focuses on the life of the author and its impact on the work produced. And on the other hand, the literary landscape, using literary excerpts, aims to (re)create the atmosphere of places, as conveyed by the text.Además, después de definir en la introducción las características del turismo literario, nuestra comunicación se articulará alrededor de cuatro tiempos particulares: en primer lugar, presentaremos ejemplos de turismo literario implementado en las zonas rurales francesas. En segundo lugar, se tratará para nosotros de hacer el balance de las ofertas turísticas del mismo tipo relativas esta vez a las campañas vietnamitas. En tercer lugar, mostraremos que existe un potencial literario real, que no se limita a los escritos de Margarita Duras. Por último, mencionaremos (modestamente) las pistas de circuitos turísticos. Estos pueden ser de dos grandes órdenes; por un lado, el circuito biográfico se relaciona con la vida del autor y su impacto en la obra producida. Y por otro lado, el paisaje literario, con la ayuda de extractos literarios, pretende (re)crear la atmósfera de los lugares, tal como la transmite el texto.Aussi, après avoir défini en introduction, les caractéristiques du tourisme littéraire, notre communication s’articulera autour de quatre temps particuliers : en premier lieu, nous présenterons des exemples de tourisme littéraire mis en œuvre dans les zones rurales françaises.

    Structural Studies Of Mycobacterial Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (Ung) And Single-Stranded DNA Binding Protein (SSB)

    No full text
    For survival and successful propagation, every organism has to maintain the genomic integrity of the cell. The information content, in the form of nucleotide bases, is constantly threatened by endogenous agents and environmental pollutants. In particular, pathogenic mycobacteria are constantly exposed to DNA-damaging assaults such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen intermediate (RNI), in their habitat which is inside host macrophage. In addition, the genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis makes it more susceptible for guanine oxidation and cytosine deamination as it is G-C rich. Therefore DNA repair mechanisms are extremely important for the mycobacterium. An important enzyme involved in DNA repair is uracil-DNA glycosylase (Ung). To access the genomic information, during repair as well as DNA replication and recombination, dsDNA must unwind to form single stranded (ss) intermediates. ssDNA is more prone to chemical and nuclease attacks that can produce breaks or lesions and can also inappropriately self associate. In order to preserve ssDNA intermediates, cells have evolved a specialized class of ssDNA-binding proteins (SSB) that associate with ssDNA with high affinity. As part of a major programme on mycobacterial proteins in this laboratory, structural studies on mycobacterial uracil-DNA glycosylase (Ung) and single-stranded DNA binding protein (SSB) have been carried out. The structures were solved using the well-established techniques of protein X-ray crystallography. The hanging drop vapour diffusion and microbatch methods were used for crystallization in all cases. X-ray intensity data were collected on a MAR Research imaging plate mounted on a Rigaku RU200 X-ray generator. The data were processed using the HKL program suite. The structures were solved by the molecular replacement method using the program PHASER and AMoRe. Structure refinements were carried out using the programs CNS and REFMAC. Model building was carried out using COOT. PROCHECK, ALIGN, INSIGHT and NACCESS were used for structure validation and analysis of the refined structures. MD simulations were performed using the software package GROMACS v 3.3.1. Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UNG), a repair enzyme involved in the excision of uracil from DNA, from mycobacteria differs from UNGs from other sources, particularly in the sequence in the catalytically important loops. The structure of the enzyme from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MtUng) in complex with a proteinaceous inhibitor (Ugi) has been determined by X-ray analysis of a crystal containing seven crystallographically independent copies of the complex. This structure provides the first geometric characterization of a mycobacterial UNG. A comparison of the structure with those of other UNG proteins of known structure shows that a central core region of the molecule is relatively invariant in structure and sequence, while the N- and C-terminal tails exhibit high variability. The tails are probably important in folding and stability. The mycobacterial enzyme exhibits differences in UNG-Ugi interactions compared with those involving UNG from other sources. The MtUng-DNA complex modelled on the basis of the known structure of the complex involving the human enzyme indicates a domain closure in the enzyme when binding to DNA. The binding involves a larger burial of surface area than is observed in binding by human UNG. The DNA-binding site of MtUng is characterized by the presence of a higher proportion of arginyl residues than is found in the binding site of any other UNG of known structure. In addition to the electrostatic effects produced by the arginyl residues, the hydrogen bonds in which they are involved compensate for the loss of some interactions arising from changes in amino-acid residues, particularly in the catalytic loops. The results arising from the present investigation represent unique features of the structure and interaction of mycobacterial Ungs. To gain further insights, the structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Ung (MtUng) in its free form was also determined. Comparison with appropriate structures indicate that the two domain enzyme slightly closes up when binding to DNA while it slightly opens up when binding to its proteinaceous inhibitor Ugi. The structural changes on complexation in the catalytic loops reflect the special features of their structure in the mycobacterial protein. A comparative analysis of available sequences of the enzyme from different sources indicates high conservation of amino acid residues in the catalytic loops. The uracil binding pocket in the structure is occupied by a citrate ion. The interactions of the citrate ion with the protein mimic those of uracil in addition to providing insights into other possible interactions that inhibitors could be involved in. SSB is an essential accessory protein required during DNA replication, repair and recombination, and various other DNA transactions. Eubacteral single stranded DNA binding (SSB) proteins constitute an extensively studied family of proteins. The variability in the quaternary association in these tetrameric proteins was first demonstrated through the X-ray analysis of the crystal structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis SSB (MtSSB) and Mycobacterium smegmatis (MsSSB) in this laboratory. Subsequent studies on these proteins elsewhere have further explored this variability, but attention was solely concentrated on the variability in the relative orientation of the two dimers that constitute the tetramer. Furthermore, the effect of this variability on the properties of the tetrameric molecule was not adequately addressed. In order to further explore this variability and strengthen structural information on mycobacterial SSBs in particular, and on SSB proteins in general, the crystal structures of two forms of Mycobacterium leprae single stranded DNA-binding protein (MlSSB) has been determined. Comparison of the structures with other eubacterial SSB structures indicates considerable variation in their quaternary association although the DNA binding domains in all of them exhibit the same OB-fold. This variation has no linear correlation with sequence variation, but it appears to correlate well with variation in protein stability. Molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out on tetrameric molecules derived from the two forms and the prototype E. coli SSB and the individual subunits of both the proteins. The X-ray studies and molecular dynamics simulations together yield information on the relatively rigid and flexible regions of the molecule and the effect of oligomerization on flexibility. The simulations provide insights into the changes in the subunit structure on oligomerization. They also provide insights into the stability and time evolution of the hydrogen bonds/water-bridges that connect two pairs of monomers in the tetramer. In continuation of our effort to understand structure-function relationships of mycobacterial SSBs, the structure of MsSSB complexed with a 31-mer polydeoxy-cytidine single stranded DNA (ssDNA) was determined. The mode of ssDNA binding in the MsSSB is different from the modes in the known structures of similar complexes of the proteins from E. coli (EcSSB) and Helicobacter pylori (HpSSB). The modes in the EcSSB and HpSSB also exhibit considerable differences between them. A comparison of the three structures reveals the promiscuity of DNA-binding to SSBs from different species in terms of symmetry and the path followed by the bound DNA chain. It also reveals commonalities within the diversity. The regions of the protein molecule involved in DNA-binding and the nature of the residues which interact with the DNA, exhibit substantial similarities. The regions which exhibit similarities are on the central core of the subunit which is unaffected by tetramerisation. The variable features of DNA binding are associated with the periphery of the subunit, which is involved in oligomerization. Thus, there is some correlation between variability in DNA-binding and the known variability in tetrameric association in SSBs. In addition to the work on Ung and SSB, the author was involved in X-ray studies on crystals of horse methemoglobin at different levels of hydration, which is described in the Appendix of the thesis. The crystal structure of high-salt horse methaemoglobin has been determined at environmental relative humidities (r.h.) of 88, 79, 75 and 66%. The molecule is in the R state in the native and the r.h. 88% crystals. At r.h.79% the molecule appears to move towards the R2 state. The crystal structure at r.h.66% is similar, but not identical, to that at r.h.75%. Thus variation in hydration leads to variation in the quaternary structure. Furthermore, partial dehydration appears to shift the structure from the R state to the R2 state. This observation is in agreement with the earlier conclusion that the changes in protein structure that accompany partial dehydration are similar to those that occur during protein action.

    Metabolic consequences of neuronal mitochondrial fission ablation

    No full text
    Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), the main mammalian mediator of mitochondrial fission, has an especially important role in neuronal development, such that its deletion gives rise to pre- or perinatal lethality. However, less is known about the need for Drp1 in adult neurons; this is relevant because inhibition of Drp1 could prevent pre-apoptotic mitochondrial fragmentation, and therefore be neuroprotective. In our mouse model, inducible Drp1 ablation in the forebrain of adult mice leads to swollen, perinuclearly aggregated mitochondria and to impaired synaptic transmission. Of note, ablated mice also develop a complex and ultimately lethal catabolic phenotype, marked by weight loss, increased lipolysis and elevated corticosterone. We traced this back to the activation of the integrated stress response in Drp1-ablated brain regions, culminating in the ectopic induction of metabolic cytokine Fgf21. Fgf21 is normally produced in liver, fat and muscle tissue in response to fasting or exercise, and no reports exist of it being produced in the brain. This “mitokine” increases insulin sensitivity and stimulates corticosterone production via receptors in the hypothalamus, thus explaining essential aspects of the catabolic phenotype. This work has implications not only for mitochondrial biology but also for the understanding of the central regulation of systemic metabolism

    A vital sustainable means for community empowerment

    No full text
    Dynamic changes in the present day quality of life and quality of environment are greatly influenced by the space sciences and technology. Notwithstanding the dual use of space technology the irreversible impacts on health, resources and ecology for each abuse of finite resources are alarming. Over two decades of development reviewed by UN Systems during 1970-90s reveal that Participation is the key to Sustainability at Community Levels. Space vision of a stewardship for the present generation to sustain a healthy and safe Space ship are challenging (UNCED.1992). The next two decades after Rio'92 have also provided ample break through Space Education Out Reach activities all over the globe. Few such are Bharath Jana Vigyaan Jatha Indian People Science March ( 1987), Earth Day Network(1972) and Clean Up the World(2000) Campaigns to name a few and thousands of Community Empowerment Models which have started providing the Tunnel Effect as a societal catalyst. Thus, these living through role eco literacy models enrich and add value to the Space Education and Outreach initiatives.. Space Eco Literacy Model (Jagannatha, COSPAR 2012) provides one such simple Space Education Tool for empowering community for sustainable Development. UNESCO/UNEP/IEEP 1977 Tbilisi conference provided historical mandates for nations to embark on formal and informal environmental education. Objectives of Environmental Education for individuals and community as awareness, attitude, knowledge, skills and participation have lived through the Rio Earth Summit-1992.Pro- Active role of nations are vital to address and show case compliance to United Nations mandates. Public outreach activities need to be networked with various diversified activities aimed at space eco-literacy both at Individual and Community Levels. An EESS Ecological Environmental Studies by Students model developed in 1987 is one such Eco education Model which was cited as one of the 20 Best Eco Education Models.(Earth Day Network, 2000).In this presentation, genesis and process of development of EESS, 1987 and Space Eco-literacy, 2011 models in the backdrop of People Science Movement in India with over 35 years is captured from the Space Situational Awareness (SSA) point of view. A community eco literacy drive during 2000-2010 on the banks of Kukkarahally lake, Mysore, India for over 320 Sundays with 4500 man-hours 300 volunteers including all the authors provided the backdrop for Space Eco Literacy Campaign.. Later the effort culminated in to a Sunday Space Eco Literacy model which was developed during April-June 2011 and are discussed..

These rare materials and archives have been carefully preserved at the Archival Section of the University of Mysore and also at other libraries in Mysore city. The present study furnishes the type of archival materials available at the University Library, Oriental Research Institute and the Karnataka State Archives, Mysore Division. Further, the study depicts the purposes of accessing archives and the use pattern of these rare archival sources on Mysore history by the research scholars, students and teachers in the discipline of Karnataka/Mysore History and allied fields. The present study also projects the extent of dependency of scholars from various professional fields, for information sources on Mysore History.

By performing a weakly non-linear stability analysis, the Nusselt number is obtained as a function of amplitude of convection which is governed by a non-autonomous Ginzburg-Landau equation derived for the stationary mode of convection. The paper succeeds in unifying the modulated Bénard-Darcy, Bénard-Rayleigh, Bénard-Brinkman and Bénard-Chandrasekhar convection problems and hence precludes the study of these individual problems in isolation. A new result that shows that asynchronous temperature modulation may be effectively used to either enhance or reduce heat transport by suitably adjusting the frequency and phase-difference of the modulated temperature is presented. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd., authorkeywords=Bénard-Darcy convection; Ginzburg-Landau amplitude equation; Nusselt number; Temperature modulation; Weakly non-linear stability analysis, keywords=Amplitude equation; Boundary temperature; Convection problem; Ginzburg-Landau equations; Modulated temperature; Phase difference; Temperature modulation; Weakly non-linear stabilities, Nonlinear equations; Nusselt number; Porous materials, Modulation, fundingdetails=University Grants Commission, references=Ahlers, G., Hohenberg, P.C., Lucke, M., Thermal convection under external modulation of the driving force, I.

This paper introduces a prototype web search results clustering engine that use the random sampling technique with medoids instead of centroids to improve clustering quality, Cluster labeling is achieved by combining intra-cluster and inter-cluster term extraction based on a variant of the information gain measure by using Modified Furthest Point First algorithm. M-FPF is compared against two other established web document clustering algorithms: Suffix Tree Clustering (STC) and Lingo, which are provided by the free open source Carrot2 Document Clustering Workbench. We measure cluster quality by considering precision , recall and relevance. Results from testing on different datasets show a considerable clustering quality. © 2013 Springer., keywords=Information retrieval; Websites, Cluster labeling; Clustering quality; Clustering system; Data sets; Document Clustering; Information gain; Intra-cluster; Medoids; Open sources; Random sampling; Suffix-trees; Term extraction; Web document clustering; Web searches, Clustering algorithms, references=Zamir, O., Etzioni, O., Web document clustering: A feasibility demonstration Proceedings of the 21st Annual International SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (1998); Hanumanthappa, M., Prakash, B.R., Mamatha, M., Improving the efficiency of document clustering and labeling using Modified FPF algorithm Proceeding of International Conference on Problem Solving and Soft Computing (2011); Geraci, F., Leoncini, M., Montangero, M., Pellegrini, M., Renda, M.E., FPF-SB: A Scalable Algorithm for Microarray Gene Expression Data Clustering (2007) LNCS, 4561, pp. 606-615. , Duffy, V.G.
