Selenium Metabolism In Trypanosoma: Characterization Of Selenoproteomes And Identification Of A Kinetoplastida-Specific Selenoprotein, Alexey V. Lobanov, Stephan Gromer, Gustavo Salinas, Vadim Gladyshev

Vadim Gladyshev Publications

Proteins containing the 21st amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) are present in the three domains of life. However, within lower eukaryotes, particularly parasitic protists, the dependence on the trace element selenium is variable as many organisms lost the ability to utilize Sec. Herein, we analyzed the genomes of Trypanosoma and Leishmania for the presence of genes coding for Sec-containing proteins. The selenoproteomes of these flagellated protozoa have three selenoproteins, including distant homologs of mammalian SelK and SelT, and a novel multidomain selenoprotein designated SelTryp. In SelK and SelTryp, Sec is near the C-terminus, and in all three selenoproteins, it is within …

Pigs are large omnivorous mammals with powerful bodies and coarse hairy coats. Their thick necks, wedge-shaped heads and mobile snouts are used in feeding to uproot the ground and find prey or plant material. Ecological characteristics of feral pig activity, group size and home range size should be considered in any management strategy aimed to control pig numbers or reduce their negative impact. Feral pig activity varies between different habitats and climates. High activity has been reported to occur in early morning and late afternoon in tropical climates (Diong 1982). However, in India pigs have been reported to feed nocturnally …

Feedback Applications In Active Noise Control For Small Axial Cooling Fans, Matthew J. Green

Theses and Dissertations

Feedback active noise control (ANC) has been applied as a means of attenuating broadband noise from a small axial cooling fan. Such fans are used to maintain thermal stability inside of computers, projectors, and other office equipment and home appliances. The type of low-level noise radiated from axial cooling fans has been classified as harmful to productivity and human well being. Previous research has successfully implemented feed-forward ANC, targeting specific narrow-band fan noise content related to the blade passage frequency (BPF) of the fan. The reference signal required for a feed-forward algorithm limits its ability to attenuate much of the …

This paper will review progress in the development of the GeneSat-1 mission. In addition, …

The Changing Paradigms Of Satellite Reconnaissance, Creating Opportunities In The Small Satellite Industry, Mark Wilkinson

Small Satellite Conference

The mention of satellite reconnaissance brings to mind images of large spacecraft, centralized command centers, and vast rooms of image analysts reading license plates and following political leaders in foreign countries. This vision of the Cold War shaped a generation of design practices. With miniaturization, satellites are achieving greater capabilities in smaller packages. The end of the Cold War and an era of war against terrorism changed reconnaissance targets and objectives. These two factors created opportunities in space research and development for small companies and academic institutions. This paper examines 11 paradigms in satellite reconnaissance and how these paradigms are …

Multi Payload Ejector (Mpe), Bridging The Gap In Recurring Space Access, Jeffrey Reddish

Small Satellite Conference

The continuous increase in the number of small satellites under development today is in direct contrast to the number of launch opportunities available for that payload class. The NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) recognized this problem and in 2004 started an effort to reform the system supporting small satellites. The Multi Payload Ejector (MPE) is a fundamental part of this new pathway. The MPE is an orbital carrier that uses common interfaces. It is capable of accommodating a flexible set of small, stand-alone spacecraft, ranging from cubesats to ESPA-class satellites with masses ranging from 2 to …

Five Recommendations To Law Schools Offering Legal Instruction Over The Internet, Daniel C. Powell

ExpressO

This article addresses the emerging market for legal distance education. The market is being driven by recent changes in ABA regulations, as well as specialization in the curriculum, and expanding costs of traditional education. We are seeing the emergence of legal distance education consortiums, which offer a platform for the trading or selling of courses and programs.

However, much skepticism remains about the ability of distance education technology to offer law schools and law students a sufficiently interactive pedagogy. In the words of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg legal education is a “shared enterprise, a genuine interactive endeavor” that …

Satellite-As-A-Sensor Neural Network Abnormality Classification Optimization , Michelle Hammond, 2d Lt Ryan Jobman

Small Satellite Conference

Neural networks and classification networks are used in commercial and government industries for data mining and pattern trend analysis. The commercial banking industry use neural networks to detect out of pattern spending habits of customers for identity theft purposes. An example of government use is the monitoring of satellite state-of-health measurements for pattern changes indicating possible sensor abnormality or onboard hardware failure in a real time environment.

Please Don't Feed The Homeless: Pottinger Revisited, Shirley D. Howell

ExpressO

This article is an outgrowth of my experiences as the founding director of Faulkner University’s Family Violence Legal Clinic in Montgomery, Alabama. My students and I partnered with Legal Services Corporation of Alabama and set up a makeshift office in a Montgomery shelter, where we met with victims of domestic violence. What we discovered surprised us all. The majority of our clients were homeless, though not necessarily under the Stewart B. McKinney Act’s definition.

When Hurricane Katrina added approximately 1.5 million more individuals to the already burgeoning homeless population of the United States, I sensed the mood of the country …

Marriage And The Elephant: The Liberal Democratic State’S Regulation Of Intimate Relationships Between Adults , Maxine Eichner

ExpressO

This essay considers the current debate in legal theory over the stance that the state should adopt toward intimate relationships between adults. Should the state, as some scholars argue, privilege marriage because of the benefits it provides to society? Or should it, as others argue, distance itself from relationships between adults on the ground that adults should be left to order their own affairs? The essay argues that scholars involved in this debate have reached such diametrically different conclusions from one another because each side has focused on a particular, narrow range of goods at issue in these relationships. Relationships …

Micro-Inspector Spacecraft An Overview, Hannah Goldberg, Juergen Mueller, Leon Alkalai

Small Satellite Conference

JPL has completed design of a small (< 5 kg) spacecraft capable of visual inspection of a host vehicle with support from NASA’s Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD). The Micro-Inspector is designed to have a minimal impact on the host with respect to mass, size, cost, interface, and integration. On orbit, the host provides the separation signal to the Micro-Inspector, ejecting it to autonomously maneuver about the host taking images and communicating them back to the host in real-time. The Micro-Inspector is capable of receiving commands for additional utility. After operations are complete, the Micro-Inspector will go through an end of life disposal, ensuring it is at a safe distance and minimal risk to the host. The Micro-Inspector spacecraft features an FPGA based avionics design with embedded processors, miniaturized celestial sensors and a MEMS-based IMU for navigation, structured light system for hazard avoidance, triple-junction solar cells for power generation and lithiumion batteries for power storage, and a low pressure butane propulsion system, all in a compact and integrated structure, allowing the Micro-Inspector to operate in close proximity to another space object. Extra mass and volume can be used for additional sensors other than visual inspection to provide a more complete analysis of the local space environment. This paper describes the multi-mission utility of the Micro-Inspector and presents an overview of the spacecraft system and subsystem designs, description of a typical inspection mission scenario, and initial hardware demonstrations of key subsystems, partially integrated with each other in a Micro-Inspector testbed at JPL.
