Draft genome sequence and detailed analysis of Pantoea eucrina strain Russ and implication for opportunistic pathogenesis
No full textAbstractThe genus Pantoea is a predominant member of host-associated microbiome. We here report on the genomic analysis of Pantoea eucrina strain Russ that was isolated from a trashcan at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK. The draft genome of Pantoea eucrina strain Russ consists of 3,939,877bp of DNA with 3704 protein-coding genes and 134 RNA genes. This is the first report of a genome sequence of a member of Pantoea eucrina. Genomic analysis revealed metabolic versatility with genes involved in the metabolism and transport of all amino acids as well as glucose, fructose, mannose, xylose, arabinose and galactose, suggesting the organism is a versatile heterotroph. The genome also encodes an extensive secretory machinery including types I, II, III, IV, and Vb secretion systems, and several genes for pili production including the new usher/chaperone system (pfam 05,229). The implications of these systems for opportunistic pathogenesis are discussed
DIALOGUE WITH CLASSICS IN MODERN POETRY: A LESSON ON THE POEMS OF ANNA RUSS IN 11 GRADE
No full textThe article discloses a methodological problem of planning the course of modern literature at school. The author
agrees with the researchers who believe that the most productive way to structure the course is to correlate contemporary poems with
classical works studied at school. From the point of view of this paper, Anna Russ’s poetry may be included in the course of modern
poetry for high school, as, on the one hand, it has something in common with the poems of V. Mayakovsky, M. Tsvetayeva, and
A. Blok to some extent, on the other hand, it will be of interest to teenagers with its up-to-date problems and vivid images. Anna
Russ has managed to reproduce the voice of the others, the mind on the others and thus she portrays a role model. The lyrical heroine
of A. Russ is eccentric, passionate and vulnerable, as well the poetess herself, which creates a peculiar emotional pattern of the
poems full of transitions from serious to funny, form loud to quiet and touching. Anna Russ experiments with word segmentation,
she gets the best of the way it sounds. The plan of a lesson described in this article emphasizes the specific features of the style of
Anna Russ, whose works resonate with the classical Russian poetry
