    Low- and High-Relief Leduc Formation Reefs: A Seismic Analysis

    No full text
    Leduc reefs have grown to widely varying heights and aereal extents along the Rimbey-Meadowbrook trend of central Alberta, resulting in significantly different seismic signatures. Three examples considered in this paper include two high-relief or full reefs from the Leduc-Woodbend field, an atoll and a pinnacle, each around 200 m in height but differing greatly in areal extent, about 100 km2 for the atoll and 1 km2 for the pinnacle. The third example, a low-relief or basalt reef from the Morinville field, is about 100 m high and 1 km2 in areal extent. The Leduc-Woodbend and Morinville reefs exhibit quite different seismic signatures. For example, 25 ms of time-structural drape along the top of the Devonian is observed across the Leduc-Woodbend atoll but only 15 ms across the Morinville reef. There is 30 ms of pullup at the Beaverhill Lake level beneath the Leduc- Woodbend atoll, 15 ms for the Morinville reef. Also, it is very difficult to differentiate the Leduc reflection from the Duvernay reflection, with which it merges, on the Morinville (basal-reef) section. In contrast, the Leduc reflection can be correlated readily on the Leduc-Woodbend atoll section; and reflections from the offreef shales (Duvernay and Ireton formations) terminate abruptly against the reef flank. In addition, the amplitude of the underlying Cooking Lake platform reflection varies laterally, depending on the velocity of the overlying formation (Duvernay shale or Leduc reef) and, to a lesser extent, the thickness of the overlying reef. This variation is not as useful in distinguishing between low-relief and high- relief reefs as it is in indicating the presence or absence of reef

    Data-Driven Optimization of DIA Mass Spectrometry by DO-MS

    No full text
    Mass spectrometry (MS) enables specific and accurate quantification of proteins with ever-increasing throughput and sensitivity. Maximizing this potential of MS requires optimizing data acquisition parameters and performing efficient quality control for large datasets. To facilitate these objectives for data-independent acquisition (DIA), we developed a second version of our framework for data-driven optimization of MS methods (DO-MS). The DO-MS app v2.0 (do-ms.slavovlab.net) allows one to optimize and evaluate results from both label-free and multiplexed DIA (plexDIA) and supports optimizations particularly relevant to single-cell proteomics. We demonstrate multiple use cases, including optimization of duty cycle methods, peptide separation, number of survey scans per duty cycle, and quality control of single-cell plexDIA data. DO-MS allows for interactive data display and generation of extensive reports, including publication of quality figures that can be easily shared. The source code is available at github.com/SlavovLab/DO-MS

    Improving MHC-I ligand identifications from LC-MS/MS data by incorporating allelic peptide motifs

    No full text
    MHC class I (MHC-I)-bound ligands play a pivotal role in CD8 T cell immunity and are hence of major interest in understanding and designing immunotherapies. One of the most commonly utilized approaches for detecting MHC ligands is LC-MS/MS. Unfortunately, the effectiveness of current algorithms to identify MHC ligands from LC-MS/MS data is limited because the search algorithms used were originally developed for proteomics approaches detecting tryptic peptides. Consequently, the analysis often results in inflated false discovery rate (FDR) statistics and an overall decrease in the number of peptides that pass FDR filters. Andreatta et al. describe a new scoring tool (MS-rescue) for peptides from MHC-I immunopeptidome datasets. MS-rescue incorporates the existence of MHC-I peptide motifs to rescore peptides from ligandome data. The tool is demonstrated here using peptides assigned from LC-MS/MS data with PEAKs software but can be deployed on data from any search algorithm. This new approach increased the number of peptides identified by up to 20-30% and promises to aid the discovery of novel MHC-I ligands with immunotherapeutic potential

    Collecting Cures in an Artisanal Manuscript: Practical Therapeutics and Disease in Ms. Fr. 640

    No full text
    Scattered throughout Ms. Fr. 640, the forty medical recipes form a small percentage of its over 900 entries. A consideration of the ailments, ingredients, and making processes described in the manuscript, as well as the author-practitioner’s process of collecting information, reveals a variety of connections between Ms. Fr. 640’s medical recipes and early modern artisanal work

    The Poems of MS Junius 11 Basic Readings

    Taken from the same manuscript as Cynewulf, the Junius 11 poems-Genesis, Exodus, Daniel, and Christ and Satan-comprise  a series of redacted Old English works that have been  traditionally  presented as the work of Bede's Caedmon. Medieval scholars have concluded that the four poems were composed by more than one author and later edited by Junius  in 1655. All of the poems are notable for their Christian  content. Apart from its focus on the Junius 11 manuscript,  this collection of essays is also important as a study of how to read, edit, and define any medieval literary text.Front Cover -- The Poems of MS Junius 11 -- Copyright Page -- Contents -- Preface of the General Editors -- Introduction: R.
