Evidence for X(5) critical point symmetry in 128Ce

Lifetimes of excited states in 128Ce were measured using the recoil distance Doppler-shift (RDDS) and the Doppler-shift attenuation (DSAM) methods. The experiments were performed at the Wright Nuclear Structure Laboratory of Yale University. Excited states of 128Ce were populated in the 100Mo(32Si,4n) reaction at 120 MeV and the nuclear γ decay was measured with an array of eight Clover detectors positioned at forward and backward angles. The deduced yrast transition strengths together with the energies of the levels within the ground-state (gs) band of 128Ce are in agreement with the predicted values for the X(5) critical point symmetry. Thus, we suggest 128Ce as a benchmark X(5) nucleus in the mass A ≈ 130 region. © World Scientific Publishing Company.

Hybrid passive/active inertial actuators to attenuate the structural response of a submerged hull

This paper theoretically investigates the application of tuned vibration absorbers and hybrid passive/active inertial actuators to reduce the vibrational responses of plates and shells. The passive/active actuators are initially applied to a simple plate. A model of a submerged hull consisting of a ring stiffened finite cylinder with bulkheads and external fluid loading is then considered. The fluctuating forces from the propeller result in excitation of the low frequency global hull modes. Inertial actuators and tuned vibration absorbers are located at each end of the hull and in circumferential arrays to reduce the hull structural response at its axial resonances. The control performance of the hybrid passive/active inertial actuator, where the passive component is tuned to a structural resonance, is compared to the attenuation achieved by a fully passive tuned vibration absorber. This work shows the potential of using hybrid passive/active inertial actuators to attenuate the global structural responses of a submerged vessel.

集胞藻PCC6803铜离子诱导表达平台的构建

在集胞藻PCC6803中,基因敲除是研究基因功能的最直接有效的方法,但是对于某些生存必需的基因则无法通过这种方法获得突变株。为研究集胞藻PCC6803中此类基因的功能,在其基因组中构建了一个petE基因启动子(PpetE)控制的铜离子诱导表达的平台。将集胞藻PpetE装配在lacZ报告基因的上游,通过同源双交换整合到这种蓝藻的基因组中。通过调节培养基中铜离子的浓度发现,lacZ的表达能够人为控制。特别是当铜离子浓度在6—400nmol/L范围时,LacZ活力随铜离子浓度增加呈S型增长关系。利用这个铜离子诱

鲤鱼(Cyprinus carpio L．)GH受体的分子克隆及其两种转录子的发现

应用反转录-PCR及RACE技术,从二龄鲤鱼肝组织中克隆了生长激素受体(GHR)的全长基因,其开放阅读框编码602个氨基酸,其中包括244个氨基酸的胞外激素结合结构域,24个氨基酸的跨膜区域和334个氨基酸的胞内信号传导区域．序列分析表明：无论在基因水平还是蛋白质水平,鲤鱼GHR与鲫鱼GHR均具有较高的同源性．用一对基因特异性引物在研究二龄鲤鱼GHR的组织分布时发现：肝与其他组织的扩增产物大小不一致(肝组织中的约小100 bp),测序结果以及基因组PCR表明这是由于一个97 bp的内含子选择性剪切造成的．

Accelerating Bayesian hierarchical clustering of time series data with a randomised algorithm.

We live in an era of abundant data. This has necessitated the development of new and innovative statistical algorithms to get the most from experimental data. For example, faster algorithms make practical the analysis of larger genomic data sets, allowing us to extend the utility of cutting-edge statistical methods. We present a randomised algorithm that accelerates the clustering of time series data using the Bayesian Hierarchical Clustering (BHC) statistical method. BHC is a general method for clustering any discretely sampled time series data. In this paper we focus on a particular application to microarray gene expression data. We define and analyse the randomised algorithm, before presenting results on both synthetic and real biological data sets. We show that the randomised algorithm leads to substantial gains in speed with minimal loss in clustering quality. The randomised time series BHC algorithm is available as part of the R package BHC, which is available for download from Bioconductor (version 2.10 and above) via http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.10/bioc/html/BHC.html. We have also made available a set of R scripts which can be used to reproduce the analyses carried out in this paper. These are available from the following URL. https://sites.google.com/site/randomisedbhc/.

Identifying cancer subtypes in glioblastoma by combining genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic data

We present a nonparametric Bayesian method for disease subtype discovery in multi-dimensional cancer data. Our method can simultaneously analyse a wide range of data types, allowing for both agreement and disagreement between their underlying clustering structure. It includes feature selection and infers the most likely number of disease subtypes, given the data. We apply the method to 277 glioblastoma samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas, for which there are gene expression, copy number variation, methylation and microRNA data. We identify 8 distinct consensus subtypes and study their prognostic value for death, new tumour events, progression and recurrence. The consensus subtypes are prognostic of tumour recurrence (log-rank p-value of $3.6 \times 10^{-4}$ after correction for multiple hypothesis tests). This is driven principally by the methylation data (log-rank p-value of $2.0 \times 10^{-3}$) but the effect is strengthened by the other 3 data types, demonstrating the value of integrating multiple data types. Of particular note is a subtype of 47 patients characterised by very low levels of methylation. This subtype has very low rates of tumour recurrence and no new events in 10 years of follow up. We also identify a small gene expression subtype of 6 patients that shows particularly poor survival outcomes. Additionally, we note a consensus subtype that showly a highly distinctive data signature and suggest that it is therefore a biologically distinct subtype of glioblastoma.

Nonlinear analysis of cardiac rhythm fluctuations using DFA method

An approach by which the detrented fluctuation analysis (DFA) method can be used to help diagnose heart failure was demonstrated. DFA was applied to patients suffering from congestive heart failure (CHF) to check correlations between DFA indices and CHF, and determine a correlation between DFA indices and mortality, with a particular attention to the residue parameter, which is a measure of the departure of the DFA from its power law approximation. DFA parameters proved to be useful as a complement to the physiological parameters weber and FE to sort out the patients into three prognostic group.

水库鱼体汞积累的预测

回归分析表明，在所研究的长江流域的12个水库中，水库与河流鲤鱼汞含量的比值F与水库集水面积A和径流量Q的比值呈显著的负相关：F＝2．5096－0．48047A／Q（r＝0．795，n＝12）凤滩水库调查结果证实了此回归方程的可靠性。实测的F值与预测值比较，相对误差为23．1％。用此模型预测三峡大坝建成蓄水后将加剧鱼体对汞的生物富集作用，局部水域存在鱼体汞含量超过我国食品汞含量标准的可能性。本文讨论了河流与水库中鱼体对砷、汞、硒、铅和镉元素积累的特点。比较其富集系数指出，在同一水系中，河流的鲤鱼对砷和硒的富
