Allenamides as orthogonal handles for selective modification of cysteine in peptides and proteins by Abbas, Ata, Xing, Bengang, Loh, Teck-Peng

“…Additionally, fluorescent-labeling studies demonstrated that the installation of a C-terminal allenamide moiety onto various molecules of interest may supply a new methodology towards the site-specific labeling of cysteine-containing proteins. …”

Safety analysis of active mobility mode by Ho, Siu Joon

“…This study will look into literature reviews about the needs of NMT users, design infrastructure as well as on-site factors such as speed and speed variance. This research seeks to utilise video collection and perception survey to gather data and make informed decisions as to which key factors contribute to near misses or crashes on non-motorised roads (NMT). …”

Optimizing Cas9-mediated HDR in HEK293 by Lee, Cheryl

“…This project aims to improve HDR efficiency, by increasing proximity of ideal donor repair template to repair site via fusing donor plasmid to gRNA. Our findings show that plasmid donors are able to achieve a consistent HDR efficiency.…”

Scene text detection using neural network by Tan, Yi Hong

“…The second is to use supervised pre-training followed by domain-specific finetuning to coaching giant convolutional neural networks once the tagged training information is lean [1]. we tend to train a replacement model supported a dataset collected by ourselves from google web site. In this project, we tend to first of all introduce some relevant ideas. we tend to describe the selective search technique used for region proposal, and also the compositions of building blocks of convolutional neural network (CNN) that embrace convolutional layer, pooling layer, corrected linear units (ReLU), fully-connected layer and loss layer. we tend to detail the method of information set preparation that consists of data assortment, information labelling and format transformation, that is taken into account as vital preparation work for coaching method.The core part of this project is that the institution of the scene text detection system from the module style to the model testing and validation.…”

Structural basis of RNA binding by leucine zipper GCN4 by Nikolaev, Yaroslav, Pervushin, Konstantin

“…Solution NMR experiments showed that the LZ-RNA interaction interface is located in the first two heptads of LZ moiety, and that only the dimeric (coiled coil) LZ conformation is capable of binding RNA. Site-directed mutagenesis of the LZ-GCN4 RNA binding interface showed that substrate binding is facilitated by lysine and arginine side chains, and that at least one nucleophilic residue is located in proximity to the RNA phosphate backbone. …”

BugSigDB captures patterns of differential abundance across a broad range of host-associated microbial signatures by Geistlinger, L, Mirzayi, C, Zohra, F, Azhar, R, Elsafoury, S, Grieve, C, Wokaty, J, Gamboa-Tuz, SD, Sengupta, P, Hecht, I, Ravikrishnan, A, Gonçalves, RS, Franzosa, E, Raman, K, Carey, V, Dowd, JB, Jones, HE, Davis, S, Segata, N, Huttenhower, C, Waldron, L

“…We present BugSigDB, a community-editable database of manually curated microbial signatures from published differential abundance studies accompanied by information on study geography, health outcomes, host body site and experimental, epidemiological and statistical methods using controlled vocabulary. …”

Targeted mutagenesis of zebrafish antithrombin III triggers disseminated intravascular coagulation and thrombosis, revealing insight into function by Liu, Y, Kretz, CA, Maeder, ML, Richter, CE, Tsao, P, Vo, AH, Huarng, MC, Rode, T, Hu, Z, Mehra, R, Olson, ST, Joung, JK, Shavit, JA

“…Mutation of the human AT3-reactive center loop abolished the ability to rescue, but the heparin-binding site was dispensable. These results demonstrate overall conservation of AT3 function in zebrafish, but reveal developmental variances in the ability to tolerate excessive clot formation. …”

Paracrine provision of lipids in the immune system by Pond, C

“…By supplying appropriate fatty acids to lymph nodes and dendritic cells, perinodal adipocytes intervene between the diet and the immune systems nutrition and partially emancipate it from fluctuations in abundance and composition of dietary lipids. Site-specific differences in the composition of lipids taken up from contiguous adipocytes create further dendritic cell diversity. …”

Environmental change and connectivity drive coral reef fish abundance in the Western Indian Ocean by Warmuth, LM, Kelly, S, Samoilys, MA, Popova, E, Head, CEI, Bonsall, MB

“…We designed a proportional oceanographic connectivity metric describing the relative strength of connectivity between all WIO coral reefs and each survey site. We created statistical models for four trophic groups: grazers and detritivores, herbivorous excavators, corallivores, and primary piscivores across 51 sites in the WIO. …”

“But some were more equal than others:” exploring inequality at Neolithic Çatalhöyük by Twiss, KC, Bogaard, A, Haddow, S, Milella, M, Taylor, JS, Veropoulidou, R, Kay, K, Knüsel, CJ, Tsoraki, C, Vasić, M, Pearson, J, Busacca, G, Mazzucato, C, Pochron, S

“…We perceive broadly similar access to staple foods, but not to goods less directly related to survival; relatively elevated income inequality during the middle portion of the site’s occupation, plausibly deliberately tamped down; and no evidence for institutionalized or lasting economic or social inequality. …”
