Soluble NAD- and NADP-Linked Oxidoreductases in Filamentous Marine Fungi: Adaptation of Fluorescent Screening Technique and Development of Supporting Methodology
Title
Soluble NAD- and NADP-Linked Oxidoreductases in Filamentous Marine Fungi: Adaptation of Fluorescent Screening Technique and Development of Supporting Methodology.
Creator
Rodrigues, Joanna, Sguros, Peter L., Florida Atlantic University
Abstract/Description
The metabolism of filamentous marine fungi has received little attention either from the specific or comparative standpoints. As part of an overall investigation of the carbon metabolism of this heterogeneous group of Ascomycetes and Deuteromycetes, a rapid, semi-quantitative method has been adapted to the screening of their NAD- and NADP-linked dehydrogenases. The Ascomycete, Halosphaeria mediosetigera (700), and Deteromycetes, Culcitalna achraspora (230) and Humicola alopallonella (710),...
Show moreThe metabolism of filamentous marine fungi has received little attention either from the specific or comparative standpoints. As part of an overall investigation of the carbon metabolism of this heterogeneous group of Ascomycetes and Deuteromycetes, a rapid, semi-quantitative method has been adapted to the screening of their NAD- and NADP-linked dehydrogenases. The Ascomycete, Halosphaeria mediosetigera (700), and Deteromycetes, Culcitalna achraspora (230) and Humicola alopallonella (710), were grown in a semi-synthetic, artificial sea water broth in submerged culture, from quantitatively standardized inocula, and harvested in the linear growth phase when respirometric data indicated maximum endogenous oxygen uptakes. Based upon dry weight, culture 700 gave QO2 maxima of 9.3-14.6 at 72 hr growth, while culture 710 values were 12.4-16.2 for the same time; culture 230 gave values of 13.8-18.4 at 96 hr growth. Harvested mycelia were washed, quantitated and subjected to sonic disintegration at 21 kHz for 20 minutes at 5-10 C in pH 7.0 phosphate buffer containing cysteine. Debris was removed by centrifuging at 12,000 X g at 4 C for 30 minutes and the resulting turbid, yellow supernatant fraction clarified by two successive 2 hr centrifugings at 4 C and 41,000 X g. Whatman #1 filter paper sheets, divided into 1 cm. squares, were pretreated with pH 8.0 Tris buffer containing MgCl2, and air-dried. The papers were spotted at the grid intersections with appropriate substrates. Cell extracts were mixed with NAD or NADP in Tris and the mixture superimposed upon the substrates. Within 2 hr the papers were viewed under ultraviolet light at 3600 A for spot fluorescence from the reduced coenzymes. In all extracts (5-10 mg protein per ml), dehydrogenases were indicated for glucose, glucose-6-phosphate, gluconate, 6-phosphogluconate, isocitrate and malate. Less definite were indications of oxidoreductases for galactose, lactate and glycerol. It is therefore indicated that these filamentous marine fungi utilize glucose carbon via the hexose monophosphate pathway and the tricarboxylic acid cycle.

Solving approximate SVP in an Ideal Lattice using a cluster

Solving approximate SVP in an Ideal Lattice using a cluster.
Creator
Khadka, Bal K., Magliveras, Spyros S., Graduate College
Abstract/Description
The shortest vector problem SVP is de ned as follows: For a given basis B of an integral lattice L fi nd a vector v in L whose length is minimal. Here we present the result of our experiments based on a hill climbing algorithm using a computer cluster and a number of parallel executions of a standard basis reduction technique, such as LLL, to successfully reduce an initial basis of L. We begin by reducing ideal lattices of relatively small dimension and progressively reduce ideal lattices of...

We begin by reducing ideal lattices of relatively small dimension and progressively reduce ideal lattices of higher dimension, beating several earlier published solutions to the approximate SVP problem.

Abstract/Description
The goal of this dissertation is to estimate the precise asymptotics for the number of geometric equivalence classes of Morse functions on the 2-sphere. Our approach involves utilizing the Lagrange inversion formula, Cauchy’s coefficient formula, and the saddle point method for the asymptotic analysis of contour integrals to analyze the generating function derived by L. Nicolaescu, expressed as the inverse of an elliptic integral. We utilize complex analysis, nonlinear functional analysis in...
Show moreThe goal of this dissertation is to estimate the precise asymptotics for the number of geometric equivalence classes of Morse functions on the 2-sphere. Our approach involves utilizing the Lagrange inversion formula, Cauchy’s coefficient formula, and the saddle point method for the asymptotic analysis of contour integrals to analyze the generating function derived by L. Nicolaescu, expressed as the inverse of an elliptic integral. We utilize complex analysis, nonlinear functional analysis in infinite sequence spaces, and interval arithmetic to write all the necessary MATLAB programs that validate our results. This work answers questions posed by Arnold and Nicolaescu, furthering our understanding of the topological properties of Morse functions on two-dimensional manifolds. It also demonstrates the effectiveness of a computer assisted approach for asymptotic analysis.

Abstract/Description
This paper presents data relative to the ecology and bathymetric distribution of hermatypic gorgonians. The reefs were analyzed with respect to faunal composition and zonation. Ecological data such as turbidity, light penetration, salinity, dissolved oxygen and temperature were taken directly on the reefs. The main reef was carbondated (C^14 ) to determine the length of time required for development. Gorgonians were transplanted from 9 meters to 18 and 30 meters to observe growth rates and...

Ecological data such as turbidity, light penetration, salinity, dissolved oxygen and temperature were taken directly on the reefs. The main reef was carbondated (C^14 ) to determine the length of time required for development. Gorgonians were transplanted from 9 meters to 18 and 30 meters to observe growth rates and spicule changes. The relationships of zooxanthellae to the hermatypic Gorgonacea were analyzed and discussed. Experiments were conducted concerning respiration and photosynthetic rates, minimum oxygen tolerance, compensation intensities and depth, and starvation in the light as well as in the dark. Tolerance limits were establIshed for various levels of salinity, and temperature. Feeding behavior experiments were recorded and the relationship of gorgonian populations to the reef structure and community were discussed.

Abstract/Description
The band structure, density of states, Fermi surface, bulk modulus and heat of formation were calculated for beta prime-NiAl using the SCF-LMTO-ASA method. The equilibrium lattice constant was also determined by minimizing the total energy. The angle-resolved and x-ray photocurrents from the valence bands were determined using the NEWPOOL and XPSI codes and the calculated spectra were compared with recent experimental measurements.

The equilibrium lattice constant was also determined by minimizing the total energy. The angle-resolved and x-ray photocurrents from the valence bands were determined using the NEWPOOL and XPSI codes and the calculated spectra were compared with recent experimental measurements. In the former case, the calculations were carried out for the (001) surface using s-polarized light and included the experimentally observed relaxations of the top two layers with an Al termination. The overall agreement between the theoretical and experimental spectra is good, indicating that self-energy effects are not large.

Abstract/Description
This thesis explores several construction problems related to the incircle of a triangle. Firstly, as a generalization of a theorem of D. W. Hansen, we find two quadruples of quantities related to a triangle which have equal sums and equal sums of squares. We also study the construction problems of triangles with centroid on the incircle, and those with a specified cevian - a median, an angle bisector, or an altitude- bisected by the incircle. Detailed analysis leads to designs of animation...
