  • The NHL Domain of BRAT Is an RNA- Binding Domain That Directly Contacts the Hunchback Mrna for Regulation
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 2, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press The NHL domain of BRAT is an RNA- binding domain that directly contacts the hunchback mRNA for regulation Inga Loedige,1,8,9 Mathias Stotz,1,8 Saadia Qamar,2,3 Katharina Kramer,2,3 Janosch Hennig,4,5 Thomas Schubert,6 Patrick Lo¨ ffler,7 Gernot La¨ngst,6 Rainer Merkl,7 Henning Urlaub,2,3 and Gunter Meister1,9 1Biochemistry Center Regensburg (BZR), Laboratory for RNA Biology, University of Regensburg, 93053 Regensburg, Germany; 2Bioanalytical Mass Spectrometry, Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry, 37077 Go¨ ttingen, Germany; 3Bioanalytics, Institute for Clinical Chemistry, University Medical Center Go¨ ttingen, 37075 Go¨ ttingen, Germany; 4Group Biomolecular NMR, Institute of Structural Biology, Helmholtz Zentrum Mu¨ nchen-German Research Center for Environmental Health, 85764 Neuherberg, Germany; 5Center for Integrated Protein Science Munich, Biomolecular NMR, Department Chemie, Technische Universita¨t Mu¨ nchen, 85748 Garching, Germany; 6Institute for Biochemistry III, University of Regensburg, 93053 Regensburg, Germany; 7Institute of Biophysics and Physical Biochemistry, University of Regensburg, 93053 Regensburg, Germany The Drosophila protein brain tumor (Brat) forms a complex with Pumilio (Pum) and Nanos (Nos) to repress hunchback (hb) mRNA translation at the posterior pole during early embryonic development. It is currently thought that complex formation is initiated by Pum, which directly binds the hb mRNA and subsequently recruits Nos and Brat. Here we report that, in addition to Pum, Brat also directly interacts with the hb mRNA. We identify Brat-binding sites distinct from the Pum consensus motif and show that RNA binding and translational repression by Brat do not require Pum, suggesting so far unrecognized Pum-independent Brat functions.

  • August 2009 Seems So Long Ago, but for Some of Us at Paws It Still Remains Very Clear
    August 2009 seems so long ago, but for some of us at Paws it still remains very clear. It was the beginning of August, 3 years ago when Hughes County appointed Paws with 15 cats. We lovingly refer to them as the “car cats” because they’d been living in a car with their previous owner. Once appointed to Paws, we began to interact with the cats. Some were immediately ready for adoption while others needed one-on-one time. Most of the cats have come around to love people but a couple still only trust a handful of volunteers. We have had success adopting 7 of the cats. Two of the remaining cats, unfortunately, had to be euthanized due to incurable illnesses. We still have 6 cats available for adoption. They are Tory, Josie, Patterson, Jamison, Bella, and Mallory. One of our members has adopted two of the car cats and he loves them dearly. He wants the others to find the homes they deserve, so he has pre-paid the adoption fees of the six remaining car cats (as well as Keeva, another cat he has come to adore). We will still go through the adoption approval process, but the cats will be free to the families who adopt them. If you know someone interested in any of these sweet cats, please let us know. The volunteers know them so well, we’ll be able to recommend the right cat for your home. As Canine Coordinator for Paws Animal Rescue and an avid dog lover, I face discrimination of certain dogs based solely on their breed.

  • Bai Xianyong in Translation: Wandering Through a Garden, Waking from a Dream
    Bai Xianyong in Translation: Wandering through a Garden, Waking from a Dream Morgan Brown Asian Languages and Civilizations Departmental Honors Thesis University of Colorado at Boulder April 7, 2015 Thesis Advisor Andrew Stuckey, Asian Languages and Civilizations Committee Members Dimitri Nakassis, Classics Andrew Stuckey, Asian Languages and Civilizations Matthias L. Richter, Asian Languages and Civilizations Brown 1 Introduction: Bai Xianyong, the author of “Wandering through a Garden, Waking from a Dream” is known today as one of Taiwan’s most prominent modernist short story writers. He was born during 1937 in Mainland China’s Guilin to a Nationalist family, his father a high-ranking general in the Nationalist army as well as defense minister for a brief time. Bai was later forced to move to Taiwan in 1952 with his family, reuniting with his father after the Nationalist army’s forced retreat. He spent the remainder of his childhood with his family in Taiwan, finally entering National Taiwan University’s Foreign Language Department where he began his writing career. Most notably, during his years at university, Bai Xianyong, along with several literarily inclined classmates, established the bimonthly literary journal Xiandai Wenxue (Modern Literature ), for the purpose of introducing Taiwan to Western modernist writers such as Kafka, Faulkner, and Woolf as well as publishing up-and-coming Taiwanese writers interested in the modernist style. Apart from his role in editing Xiandai Wenxue , Bai also published many of his short stories during these four years leading to the eventual publication of his larger collections of short stories including People of Taipei in 1973, a collection of stories, of which “Wandering through a Garden, Waking from a Dream” is a part, which is widely considered to be his masterpiece.

    Col·loquis de Vic XIII - La Modernitat, 2009, p. 135-200. ESPORT I MODERNITAT: EL TENNIS, MÉS QUE UN JOC CONRAD V ILANOU TORRANO (Universitat de Barcelona) «En això que en diem modernitat, el vuitanta, per no dir el noranta per cent és una resultant de l’esport. Perquè l’esport no es manté en un camp professional, com una joia espectacular separada del món no-esportiu a la ma- nera de l’oli i de l’aigua; la fúria, l’agilitat, la violència de l’esport ultrapassen les regions concretes de la seva producció específica, i s’apoderen de la medul·la profun- da i de la pell pintada d’aquesta societat nostra» (Josep Maria de Sagarra, Les ales líriques de l’esport, 1928). «L’esport, com a simple exercici individual o com a institució que participa, alhora, de la lluita en el seu sentit més noble i de l’espectacle, és una de les manifestacions més genuïnes de la vida moderna» (Joaquim Molas, Passió i mite de l’esport, 1986). Sovint s’ha significat el caràcter modern de l’esport que va constituir, durant les primeres dècades del segle XX, un fenomen vinculat al moviment de les avantguardes. Ja el Modernisme va representar –Ramon Casas així ho va fer– escenes esportives que tenien la bicicleta com a protagonis- ta. Al seu torn, el Noucentisme –que a Catalunya significa un inequívoc moviment de modernització, sobretot a partir de l’esforç endegat per la Mancomunitat de Catalunya– va 135 donar suport al fenomen esportiu1. Altrament, l’esport fou presentat –així es desprèn del Manifest Groc signat per Salvador Dalí, Lluís Montanyà i Sebastià Gasch l’any 1928– com un element innovador.
