Abstract:
In this paper, we explore how to use topological tools to compare dimension reduction methods. We first make a brief overview of some of the methods often used in dimension reduction such as isometric feature mapping, Laplacian Eigenmaps, fast independent component analysis, kernel ridge regression, and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding. We then give a brief overview of some of the topological notions used in topological data analysis, such as barcodes, persistent homology, and Wasserstein distance. Theoretically, when these methods are applied on a data set, they can be interpreted

Abstract:
A powder X-ray diffractometer study of hexakis(tridecylsulfono)benzene (HASB13) has been carried out over the temperature range 20 to above 80 °C. In this range three phase transitions are observed by sharp discontinuities in the diffraction pattern indicating a solid-solid, solidmesophase, and mesophase-liquid transition. The mesomorphic phase is identified as a hexagonal columnar discotic mesophase, Dhd, with intercolumnar spacing of 25.7 Å and average stacking distance of 4.9 Å. Both distances are independent of temperature but there appears to be a gradual increase in the stacking disorder

Abstract:
Caspases play an important role in the ability of animal cells to kill themselves by apoptosis. Caspase activity is regulated in vivo by members of three distinct protease inhibitor families, two of which, baculovirus p35 and members of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) family, are thought to be caspase specific. However, caspases are members of the clan of cysteine proteases designated CD, which also includes animal and plant legumains, and the bacterial proteases clostripain, gingipain-R and gingipain-K. Since these proteases have been proposed to have a common mechanism and evolutionary orig

Molecular replacement (MR) is the predominant route to solution of the phase problem in macromolecular crystallography. Although routine in many cases, it becomes more effortful and often impossible when the available experimental structures typically used as search models are only distantly homologous to the target. Nevertheless, with current powerful MR software, relatively small core structures shared between the target and known structure, of 20–40% of the overall structure for example, can succeed as search models where they can be isolated.

Tandem repeats of Drosophila transgenes can cause heterochromatic variegation for transgene expression in a copy-number and orientation-dependent manner.

Arrays consisting of tandemly repeated white transgenes are strongly affected by proximity to constitutive heterochromatin.

Current tools for estimating the substitution distance between two related sequences struggle to remain accurate at a high divergence.

Abstract:
Glycopeptide antibiotics (GPAs), like teicoplanin and vancomycin, have been the first-line treatment for infections caused by Gram-positive multidrug-resistant pathogens. GPAs appear to be related to ramoplanin-like lipodepsipeptides (LDPs), yet another signi­ficant class of lipid II binders. Major compounds among LDPs are ramoplanin (the key representative), enduracidin, and chersinamycin; each with known biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). Five additional BGCs for the putative LDPs were recently described. LDP BGCs are poorly investigated; one particular aspect that deserves further investiga

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The genetic structure and evolution of a novel exchangeable meningococcal genomic island was defined for the important human pathogen Neisseria meningitidis. In 125 meningococcal strains tested, one of three unrelated nucleotide sequences, designatedexl (exchangeable locus), was found between a gene required for heme utilization, hemO, andcol, encoding a putative Escherichia colicollagenase homologue. The 5′ boundary of each exlcassette was the stop codon of hemO, whereas the 3′ boundary was delineated by a 33-bp repeat containing neisserial uptake sequences located downstream of col.

Abstract:
Small GTPases are molecular switches that participate in many essential cellular processes. Amongst them, human Rac1 was first described for its role in regulating actin cytoskeleton dynamics and cell migration, with a close relation to carcinogenesis. More recently, the role of Rac1 in regulating the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), both as a subunit of NADPH oxidase complexes and through its association with mitochondrial functions, has drawn attention. Malfunctions in this context affect cellular plasticity and apoptosis, related to neurodegenerative diseases and diabetes. Some

Abstract:
A linkage map was obtained using a BC1 progeny (Prunus persica × (P. persica × P. ferganensis)). The map is composed of 109 loci (74 RFLPs, 17 SSRs, 16 RAPDs, and two morphological traits) distributed in 10 linkage groups. Loci, segregating in five different ratios, were integrated in the map with JoinMap 2.0 software. The map covers 521 cM of the peach genome. The average distance between adjacent loci is 4.8 cM. Two monogenic traits, flesh adhesion (F/f) and leaf glands (E/e), were placed on the map. Thirty-two loci in common with a saturated linkage map of Prunus allowed a comparative analy

Macromolecular structures can be solved by molecular replacement provided that suitable search models are available. Models from distant homologues may deviate too much from the target structure to succeed, notwithstanding an overall similar fold or even their featuring areas of very close geometry. Successful methods to make the most of such templates usually rely on the degree of conservation to select and improve search models.ARCIMBOLDO_SHREDDERuses fragments derived from distant homologues in a brute-force approach driven by the experimental data, instead of by sequence similarity.

Abstract:
The performance of automated protein model building usually decreases with resolution, mainly owing to the lower information content of the experimental data. This calls for a more elaborate use of the available structural information about macromolecules. Here, a new method is presented that uses structural homologues to improve the quality of protein models automatically constructed using ARP/wARP. The method uses local structural similarity between deposited models and the model being built, and results in longer main-chain fragments that in turn can be more reliably docked to the protein s

The map contains 11 major groups and 9 small groups and has a total length of 803 cM with an average distance of 6.4 cM between two adjacent loci.

The bacterial toxin–antitoxin (TA) system regulates cell growth under various environmental stresses. Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative pathogen of tuberculosis (TB), has three HigBA type II TA systems with reverse gene organization, consisting of the toxin protein HigB and labile antitoxin protein HigA. Most type II TA modules are transcriptionally autoregulated by the antitoxin itself. In this report, we first present the crystal structure of the M. tuberculosis HigA3 antitoxin (MtHigA3) and MtHigA3 bound to its operator DNA complex.

Our aim was to ascertain whether the N15sop homologue functions in partition, to identify the centromere site, and to examine possible interchangeability of function with the F Sop system. When expressed at a moderate level, N15 SopA and -B proteins partly stabilize mini-F which lacks its own sopoperon b

ABSTRACT Pantothenate kinase (CoaA) catalyzes the first step of the coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthetic pathway and controls the intracellular concentrations of CoA through feedback inhibition in bacteria. An alternative enzyme found in archaea, pantoate kinase, is missing in the order Thermoplasmatales. The PTO0232 gene from Picrophilus torridus, a thermoacidophilic euryarchaeon, is shown to be a distant homologue of the prokaryotic type I CoaA. The cloned gene clearly complements the poor growth of the temperature-sensitive Escherichia coli CoaA mutant strain ts9, and the recombinant protein expre

The primary structure of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from the archaebacteria shows striking deviation from the known sequences of eubacterial and eukaryotic sequences, despite unequivocal homologies in functionally important regions. Thus, the structural similarity between the eubacterial and eukaryotic enzymes is significantly higher than that between the archaebacterial enzymes and the eubacterial and eukarytic enzymes. This preferred similarity of eubacterial and eukaryotic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase structures does not correspond to the phylogenetic distances
