The identification of protein localization (i.e. into which sub-cellular compartment it is being sorted) is important for understanding protein function, as certain functions can only be performed in certain environments. Despite advances in high-throughput experiments for protein localization, the gap between the number of known proteins and the number of proteins with known localization continues to grow. Several computational approaches have been developed to predict protein localization, yet many challenges remain to be tackled. The work at hand describes a series of novel machine learning-based approaches that predict protein localization from amino acid sequence. Protein localization is predicted at different resolution levels: (i) a cell, (ii) a compartment and (iii) a pathogenic organism. The first approach employs machine learning (profile kernel Support Vector Machines) to predict protein sub-cellular localization. Prediction performance is made 25% better by adding homology-based inference. The improved method was made publicly available as a web server and was used to annotate over 1,000 entirely sequenced proteomes. Predicting protein localization at a resolution of a single compartment is a harder problem due to the lack of experimental data. This work presents another method that combines homology-based inference with machine learning to predict proteins in 13 sub- nuclear localizations. In addition, a database that archives all experimentally known nuclear signals, i.e. “zip codes” that guide nuclear protein import and export, is described. Learned from the set of experimental signals, the database suggests a two-fold larger set of potential computationally determined signals that await their experimental verification. Knowledge of protein localization can assist in the identification of pathogenic bacteria. The type III secretion system is a key mechanism for

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

Hierarchical levels ot psychobiologic deficiency and corresponding condition variables are given for the various physically handicapping conditions which result in non-ambulation. Information on performance characteristics is intended to be used in design research for determining abilities and needs of specific non-ambulatory groups at all levels of non-ambulation and tor determining the characteristics which the proposed dynamic artificial aids must possess. A case study using the data provided is included to illustrate that a psychobiologic approach to design is possible and to indicate the type of reasoning which needs to be followed in developing design solutions.

  • The Myth of Junk DNA
    The Myth of Junk DNA JoATN h A N W ells s eattle Discovery Institute Press 2011 Description According to a number of leading proponents of Darwin’s theory, “junk DNA”—the non-protein coding portion of DNA—provides decisive evidence for Darwinian evolution and against intelligent design, since an intelligent designer would presumably not have filled our genome with so much garbage. But in this provocative book, biologist Jonathan Wells exposes the claim that most of the genome is little more than junk as an anti-scientific myth that ignores the evidence, impedes research, and is based more on theological speculation than good science.
