    Notes: Abstract. This revision of the classification of unicellular eukaryotes updates that of Levine et al. (1980) for the protozoa and expands it to include other protists. Whereas the previous revision was primarily to incorporate the results of ultrastructural studies, this revision incorporates results from both ultrastructural research since 1980 and molecular phylogenetic studies. We propose a scheme that is based on nameless ranked systematics. The vocabulary of the taxonomy is updated, particularly to clarify the naming of groups that have been repositioned. We recognize six clusters of eukaryotes that may represent the basic groupings similar to traditional “kingdoms.” The multicellular lineages emerged from within monophyletic protist lineages: animals and fungi from Opisthokonta, plants from Archaeplastida, and brown algae from Stramenopiles.

    Appraisal, Agency and Atypicality: Evidence from Manufactured Homes (2005)

    Notes: The appraisal of the “market value” of homes serving as the collateral for mortgages is a fundamental part of the underwriting process. If a loan should default, however, it is not the retail market value that the lender obtains, but rather the “recovery value.” In this research, we show how recovery values differ from market values at origination and explore the reasons for the differences. Using a large sample of chattel mortgages on manufactured homes, we explore the relationship among the selling prices, the book values, and the fitted values from simple hedonic models with spatial autocorrelation. We then address the differences between selling prices at origination and recoveries from repossessed homes. We find that the spread between them varies systematically with home characteristics and especially with “atypicality,” that is, with measures of how unusual a home is. Selling prices both at origination and recovery affect borrower defaults.

    Tus-mediated arrest of DNA replication in Escherichia coli is modulated by DNA supercoiling (2005)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Science Ltd

    Notes: In the absence of RecA, expression of the Tus protein of Escherichia coli is lethal when ectopic Ter sites are inserted into the chromosome in an orientation that blocks completion of chromosome replication. Using this observation as a basis for genetic selection, an extragenic suppressor of Tus-mediated arrest of DNA replication was isolated with diminished ability of Tus to halt DNA replication. Resistance to tus expression mapped to a mutation in the stop codon of the topA gene (topA869), generating an elongated topoisomerase I protein with a marked reduction in activity. Other alleles of topA with mutations in the carboxyl-terminal domain of topoisomerase I, topA10 and topA66, also rendered recA strains with blocking Ter sites insensitive to tus expression. Thus, increased negative supercoiling in the DNA of these mutants reduced the ability of Tus–Ter complexes to arrest DNA replication. The increase in superhelical density did not diminish replication arrest by disrupting Tus–Ter interactions, as Tus binding to Ter sites was essentially unaffected by the topA mutations. The topA869 mutation also relieved the requirement for recombination functions other than recA to restart replication, such as recC, ruvA and ruvC, indicating that the primary effect of the increased negative supercoiling was to interfere with Tus blockage of DNA replication. Introduction of gyrB mutations in combination with the topA869 mutation restored supercoiling density to normal values and also restored replication arrest at Ter sites, suggesting that supercoiling alone modulated Tus activity. We propose that increased negative supercoiling enhances DnaB unwinding activity, thereby reducing the duration of the Tus–DnaB interaction and leading to decreased Tus activity.

    Co-regulation of Salmonella enterica genes required for virulence and resistance to antimicrobial peptides by SlyA and PhoP/PhoQ (2005)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2958
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005

    Notes: Analysis of the transcriptome of slyA mutant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium revealed that many SlyA-dependent genes, including pagC, pagD, ugtL, mig-14, virK, phoN, pgtE, pipB2, sopD2, pagJ and pagK, are also controlled by the PhoP/PhoQ regulatory system. Many SlyA- and PhoP/PhoQ-co-regulated genes have functions associated with the bacterial envelope, and some have been directly implicated in virulence and resistance to antimicrobial peptides. Purified His-tagged SlyA binds to the pagC and mig-14 promoters in regions homologous to a previously proposed ‘SlyA-box’. The pagC promoter lacks a consensus PhoP binding site and does not bind PhoP in vitro, suggesting that the effect of PhoP on pagC transcription is indirect. Stimulation of pagC expression by PhoP requires SlyA. Levels of SlyA protein and mRNA are not significantly changed under low-magnesium PhoP-inducing conditions in which pagC expression is profoundly elevated, however, indicating that the PhoP/PhoQ system does not activate pagC expression by altering SlyA protein concentration. Models are proposed in which PhoP may control SlyA activity via a soluble ligand or SlyA may function as an anti-repressor to allow PhoP activation. The absence of almost all SlyA-activated genes from the Escherichia coli K12 genome suggests that the functional linkage between the SlyA and PhoP/PhoQ regulatory systems arose as Salmonella evolved its distinctive pathogenic lifestyle.

    Notes: : Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris can produce sufficient guaiacol (methoxyphenol), a metabolic by-product of the bacterium, in apple juice to cause a detectable taint characterized by an antiseptic off-odor or distinct medicinal flavor and lingering aftertaste. Bacterial spoilage may not be visibly detectable. The objective of this study was to determine the best estimate threshold (BET) for detection of guaiacol in water and commercial pasteurized apple juice from concentrate using the forced-choice ascending concentration method of limits with an experienced 17-member sensory panel. The mean BET for aroma detection of guaiacol in water and apple juice was 0.48 ppb and 0.91 ppb, respectively. The mean BET for taste detection of guaiacol in water and apple juice was 0.17 ppb and 0.24 ppb, respectively. Individual aroma BET values ranged from 0.06 ppb to 4.71 ppb guaiacol in water and 0.17 ppb to 4.71 ppb for guaiacol in apple juice. Individual taste BET values ranged from 0.01 ppb to 4.71 ppb for guaiacol in water and apple juice. The taste BET was equal to or lower than the aroma BET for guaiacol in both water and apple juice for all panelists. There was about a 500-fold range in guaiacol taste detection between panelists, with some individuals exhibiting a BET value as low as 10 ppt (trillion). The information should be useful for developing quality assurance sensory methodology to evaluate potential apple juice flavor spoilage by Alicyclobacillus spp.

    Performance Information Systems for Emergency Response: Field Examination and Simulation of End-To-End Rural Response Systems (2005)

    Notes: This research study investigates the role of information systems in enhancing end-to-end performance of rural Emergency Medical Services (EMS) systems. This study uses an embedded case study approach with multiple methods and within the context of rural Minnesota. Interviews and data analysis of the EMS process identified four elements: mayday call, routing and dispatch, response, and treatment. These data were then used to perform a preliminary simulation of rural EMS systems performance under normal and crisis conditions as a proof of concept for analyzing end-to-end performance. This process allowed for further contextual analysis of the interviews, which revealed the need for a more dynamic and comprehensive management information system as well as a forum for sharing EMS performance information across the full range of organizations involved in EMS. Constraints to enhancing EMS systems were also identified, such as a lack of funding for new technologies and an apparent disconnect between information systems coordination and service coordination. The case study reveals that while local EMS providers may have an intuitive understanding of how the entire system performs, there is a lack of systematic data to support, confirm or refute perceptions about overall performance. The paper concludes with recommendations for future related research activities.

    Exporting Western Law to the Developing World: The Troubling Case of Niger (2008)

    Notes: In recent years the West has dispatched ``rule doctors" across the developing world to guide poor countries through the process of legal modernization and westernization. Their goal, laid out by the so-called Washington Consensus, has been to reform those countries' legal systems so that they might share in the economic bounty of globalization. But things have not always gone well, particularly - this paper argues - where those rule doctors have ignored existing legal traditions.The paper focuses on the particular case of Niger, one of the poorest countries in the world. At present, most of Niger's citizens rely on magio-religious traditions to accomplish what we in the West would consider law. One important, and from a Western perspective colorful, Nigerien legal tradition is its citizens' reliance on an oracle called the gon to identify wrongdoers and restore harmony to their communities. The paper will describe the gon, and will point out some of the ways that it differs fundamentally from Western conceptions of law. It then will conclude that Washington Consensus law reform in Niger will fail, and will very likely cause social unrest, unless it takes a different tack and finds a way to accommodate existing legal traditions.
