Analyses of sequence divergence using completely sequenced genomes
No full text>Magister Scientiae - MScUsing the complete genome, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which duplicated after its
speciation fuom Kluyveromyces lactics, a dataset of 119 putative S. cerevisiae - K.
lactis ortholog-pairs was constructed. S. cerevisiae paralogous pairs that are likely to
have duplicated during the whole genome duplication of S. cerevisiae were obtained
and the approach taken in our previous work (Nembaware et al., 20OZ), was repeated
to test whether the presence of a paralogue in S. cerevisiae had an effect on the rate
of sequence divergence of the 119 pairs of orthologous genes. We found, however,
that substitutions at synonymous sites had reached saturation and this prevented us
from being able to repeat the previous finding with S. cerevistae and K. lactis . From
this study a publicly available web-server (http://hamlyn.sanbi.ac.zal-victoria) that
automates the calculation of Ka:Ks values given a pairs homologous CDS sequences
is presented

Art Forum - Lynn, Victoria
No full text4 September 2002. -- Victoria Lynn is a distinguished curator and writer who has worked in the field of contemporary and Australian visual arts over the last two decades. She has recently been appointed Director of Creative Development at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, an innovative exhibition venue located at Federation Square in Melbourne, due to open later this year. She is currently Chair of the Visual Arts/Crafts Board of the Australia Council. From 1991 to 2001 she was Curator of Contemporary Art at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, and the numerous exhibitions she has curated have received substantial critical acclaim. She is the author of many articles, catalogue essays and edited collections, and books on artists Marion Borgelt and Eugene Carchesio. In her lecture she will discuss both Australian and International work, the challenges at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, and the different modes and understandings of what the moving image can and might be understood as

Genome-wide survey and analysis of allele-specific mRNA splicing in human and mouse
No full textIncludes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 125-145).This dissertation aims to examine allele-specific splicing in human and mouse using publicly available datasets. Such datasets, which have been generated from multiple tissue sources and from individuals of diverse backgrounds, are rich and cheap reservoirs of transcript isoforms resulting from alternative splicing as well as isoforms resulting from mutations or polymorphisms (allele-specific isoforms). Published tools were used to analyse microarray and genomic data. However, for the assessment of allele-specific splicing using publicly available high-throughput transcript sequences, we present two novel methods: a heuristic method for quantifying the prevalence of allele-specific splicing and a more sophisticated maximum likelihood method for the detection of individual examples of allele-specific splicing. These methods make use of transcripts that can be mapped to both polymorphisms and computationally predicted mRNA isoforms. Inference of polymorphic alleles from transcripts is laborious hence a pre-computed database was created for the human data and made publicly available for use by the wider research community
Mapping the Discipline of the Olympic Games An Author-Cocitation Analysis
No full textThe authors conducted an author cocitation analysis on prominent authors writing about the Olympics during the 1990s. Author cocitation is an established bibliometric technique that can be used to measure the relative similarities of topics written about by the cited authors. This enables a visual representation of the “intellectual space” of the discipline, in this case the Olympics, to be created for the period under review. So core and peripheral research areas are identified, along with their major contributors. The representation appears as a two-dimensional cluster-enhanced map. Subject expertise was then applied to the results to place labels on the generated clusters of authors and their topics
