公的研究機関としての成果の発信について： アジア経済研究所学術研究リポジトリ（ARRIDE）の場合

　日本貿易振興機構アジア経済研究所は研究者数約150 名、50 年の歴史を持つ社会科学系の研究機関である。 日本における開発途上国研究の拠点として世界への知的 貢献をなすことを目指し、途上国の経済、社会、政治、 国際協力・援助に関する幅広い研究を行っている。当研 究所のような独立行政法人で機関リポジトリを公開して いる例は日本ではまだ数少ない。国立情報学研究所ウェ ブサイト内の国内の機関リポジトリ一覧（http://www. nii.ac.jp/irp/list/）によると、大学以外を母体とする機関 リポジトリ（共同リポジトリを除く）は2010 年3 月時 点で11 7 件中6 件のみである。 　機関リポジトリは学術情報のオープンアクセス化の潮 流の中で、セルフアーカイビングによりそれを実現する 代表的な方法である。加えて、機関の研究成果を蓄積保 存し無料で広く公開することは研究所のミッションであ る「世界への知的貢献」に寄与し、また公的研究機関と しての説明責任を果たす上でも重要であると考えられ る。そのような観点から、当研究所の事例をご紹介して みたい。

Get Access AbstractSuccess of Mediterranean dry areas restoration with oaks is a challenging goal. Testing eco-techniques that mimic beneficial effects of natural structures and ameliorate stress contributes to positive solutions to overcoming establishment barriers. We ran a factorial experiment in a dry area, testing two levels of solid wall transmission of tube shelters (60 and 80 %) plus a control mesh, and two depths (shallow and 15 cm depth) of placing either planted seedlings or acorns of Quercus ilex. Microclimate of the planting or sowing spots was characterized by measuring photosynthetically active radiation, temperature and relative humidity. Plant response was evaluated in terms of survival, phenology, acorn emergence and photochemical efficiency (measured through chlorophyll fluorescence). We hypothesize that tube shelters and deep planting improve Q. ilex post-planting and sowing performance because of the combined effects of reducing excessive radiation and improving access to moist soil horizons. Results show that temperature and PAR was reduced, and relative humidity increased, in deep spots. Midsummer photochemical efficiency indicates highest level of stress for oaks in 80 % light transmission shelter. Optimum acorn emergence in spring was registered within solid wall tree shelters, and maximum summer survival of germinants and of planted seedlings occurred when acorns or seedlings were placed at 15 cm depth irrespectively of light transmission of shelter. Survival of germinants was similar to that of planted seedlings. The importance of techniques to keep high levels of viability after sowing recalcitrant seeds in the field is emphasized in the study

Antibody catalysis of peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerization in the folding of RNase T1

An antibody generated to an α-keto amide containing hapten 1 catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of peptidyl-prolyl amide bonds in peptides and in the protein RNase T1. The antibody-catalyzed peptide isomerization reaction showed saturation kinetics for the cis-substrate, Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-pNA, with a kcat/Km value of 883 s−1⋅M−1; the reaction was inhibited by the hapten analog 13 (Ki = 3.0 ± 0.4 μM). Refolding of denatured RNase T1 to its native conformation also was catalyzed by the antibody, with the antibody-catalyzed folding reaction inhibitable both by the hapten 1 and hapten analog 13. These results demonstrate that antibodies can catalyze conformational changes in protein structure, a transformation involved in many cellular processes.

El papel de las narrativas en el desarrollo de una mirada profesional en futuros maestros de primaria

Una de las competencias que debe adquirir un maestro de educación primaria es mirar profesionalmente aspectos de la enseñanza que le permitan identificar lo relevante para el aprendizaje, interpretarlo y tomar decisiones de acción. Durante las prácticas de enseñanza en los centros de Educación Primaria, se pidió a un grupo de futuros maestros que escribieran una narrativa en la que se identificara evidencias de lo que consideraban manifestaciones de la competencia matemática de los estudiantes. La narrativa consistía en (1) la descripción de la situación de enseñanza-aprendizaje en la que habían identificado evidencias de la competencia matemática de sus estudiantes. Debían describir la tarea, qué hacen los alumnos, y cómo el maestro apoya la interacción (2) la interpretación de la situación, que debía contener evidencias de la comprensión de los estudiantes y evidencias de cómo parecían estar desarrollándose diferentes aspectos de la competencia matemática y (3) completar la situación para potenciar el desarrollo de la competencia matemática identificada o algún otro aspecto de la competencia. La elaboración de las narrativas ayudó a los futuros maestros a empezar a desarrollar una mirada estructurada sobre las situaciones de enseñanza-aprendizaje que puede ayudarles a seguir aprendiendo a lo largo de la vida profesional.

Blending in English Charactoons

This article deals with both the word-formation mechanism of blending and the creative process involved in providing characters with proper names in cartoons or TV series for children in English. The study addresses the nature and features of proper and common names, two apparently well-distinguished categories, as well as, and basically fictional proper names, by suggesting differences between fictional proper names and other types of proper and common names. Furthermore, it discusses the presence of blending in fiction and in fictional proper names, with special reference to charactonyms. The main focus of this work is on blended charactonyms in cartoons addressed to children, which for the purposes of this study will be called cartoonyms or charactoons. Questions such as the following are addressed: the formation or creation of cartoonyms or charactoons from pre-existing material; the semantic motivations behind their formation; their resulting structural complexity; their particularly descriptive, expressive and meaningful nature; as well as how suitable they are to the genre in which they are used.
