  • Research Highlights
    Vol. 16, November 2016 Research Highlights Fishy approach reveals how things taste sweet or umami Okayama University have identified the protein conformational changes associated with sweet and umami taste recognition. Taste recognition occurs as specific protein receptors in the mouth interact with molecules in eaten food. The proteins responsible for tasting sweet and umami molecules are described as taste receptor type 1 (T1r) and are common to vertebrates in general, including fish, birds and mammals. It is known that the T1r family of variants interact with food molecules in paired up structures - “heterodimers” – Yamashita and colleagues identified the structure and to allow the distinction between umami, sweet, and other conformational changes in type 1 taste receptor proteins tastes. However, difficulties in producing and purifying these during the recognition of sweet and umami tastes proteins have inhibited attempts to directly investigate what interactions occur during sweet and umami taste recognition. Atsuko Yamashita and a team of researchers at RIKEN SPring-8 Center, the National Institute of Natural Science, the Graduate University for Advanced Studies (SOKENDAI), the Food Research Institute, Osaka University, Okazaki Institute for Integrative Biosciences, and Okayama University have now successfully demonstrated a way around these difficulties. They identified a fish known as medaka or “Japanese rice fish” as a suitable vertebrate model for investigating umami and sweet tastes. The researchers found they could produce – “express” – the ligand binding domain of the T1r2 and T1r3 proteins in medaka fish as functional heterodimeric proteins. They express the proteins in a glycosylated form, which is closer to the physiological state. The study identifies the conformational changes the proteins undergo during sweet and umami taste recognition for the first time.

I hope you are doing well in the new academic year. AATJ launched our “J-CAN initiative” at the beginning of this year. J-CAN stands for Japanese-Core Practices, Articulation/Advocacy and Network. In addition to articulation, advocacy, and networking activities, AATJ is now promoting ACTFL’s Core Practices* – that is, high-leverage teaching practices – to promote Japanese language and cultural education. As part of our efforts, AATJ and the Japan Foundation, Los Angeles, sponsored a “J-CAN Workshop at Old Dominion College in Virginia in July. Representatives of four of AATJ’s affiliate organizations gathered and explored what core practices mean, and each organization planned short-term and long-term action plans for each organization and their J-CAN activities. Please see a more detailed report of the workshop in this newsletter. In addition, AATJ and the Japan Foundation are co-organizing and planning a J-CAN workshop in November in Boston. The theme of the workshop is “New Pedagogy Across the US,” and it will be held at MIT on November 20, right after the ACTFL Convention/AATJ Fall Conference in Boston.

  • American Football
    COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 American Football American Football popularly known as the Rugby Football or Gridiron originated in United States resembling a union of Rugby and soccer; played in between two teams with each team of eleven players. American football gained fame as the people wanted to detach themselves from the English influence. The father of this sport Walter Camp altered the shape and size of the ball to an oval-shaped ball called ovoid ball and drawn up some unique set of rules. Objective American Football is played on a four sided ground with goalposts at each end. The two opposing teams are named as the Offense and the Defense, The offensive team with control of the ovoid ball, tries to go ahead down the field by running and passing the ball, while the defensive team without control of the ball, targets to stop the offensive team’s advance and tries to take control of the ball for themselves. The main objective of the sport is scoring maximum number of goals by moving forward with the ball into the opposite team's end line for a touchdown or kicking the ball through the challenger's goalposts which is counted as a goal and the team gets points for the goal. The team with the most points at the end of a game wins. THANKS FOR READING – VISIT OUR WEBSITE www.educatererindia.com COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Team Size American football is played in between two teams and each team consists of eleven players on the field and four players as substitutes with total of fifteen players in each team.
