Inadequate Immigration System For Asylum Seekers At The Us-Mexico Border, Kyli Fox Soug Sep 2022

Inadequate Immigration System For Asylum Seekers At The Us-Mexico Border, Kyli Fox Soug

Ballard Brief

The history of immigration in the US goes back to its founding. However, in recent years, immigration trends at the US-Mexico border have gained media and political attention as more migrants flee to the border and face challenges as they seek refuge in the US. The inadequate immigration system has been exacerbated as legislation like the Migrant Protection Protocols and metering complicates the legal system and forces asylum seekers into border towns. Border patrol's misuse of resources and insufficient immigration data also contributes to the inadequate immigration system. Families and individuals seeking legal asylum at the border are being detained …

Amino acid ligation to cognate transfer RNAs (tRNAs) is catalyzed by aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs)-essential interpreters of the genetic code during translation. Mammalian cells harbor 20 cytoplasmic aaRSs, out of which 9 (in 8 proteins), with 3 non-aaRS proteins, AIMPs 1 to 3, form the similar to 1.25-MDa multi-tRNA synthetase complex (MSC). The function of MSC remains uncertain, as does its mechanism of assembly. Constituents of multiprotein complexes encounter obstacles during assembly, including inappropriate interactions, topological constraints, premature degradation of unassembled subunits, and suboptimal stoichiometry. To facilitate orderly and efficient complex formation, some complexes are assembled cotranslationally by a mechanism in …

Physical, Chemical, And Mineralogical Controls On Retardation Of Anatoxin-A Migration By Sorption To Natural Soils With Implications For Groundwater Protection, Justin L. Hobart, Andrew M. O’Reilly, Jennifer N. Gifford

Faculty and Student Publications

Increasing prevalence of cyanotoxins in surface water bodies worldwide threatens groundwater quality when contaminated water recharges an aquifer through natural or artificial means. The subsurface fate of anatoxin-a (ATX) is not well studied. Laboratory batch experiments were performed to expand the current knowledge of ATX sorption affinities to geologic media, with a focus on natural soil (Vertisol, Ultisol, Alfisol, and Inceptisol) and physical, chemical, and mineralogical characteristics. For a range of aqueous ATX concentrations (0.3–14 μg/L), linear, Freundlich, and Langmuir isotherms fit observed data well (r2 = 0.92–1.00, RMSE = 0.4–6.3 μg/kg). Distribution coefficient (Kd) and retardation factor (Rf) values …

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is a lethal disease with limited treatment options and poor survival. We studied 83 spatial samples from 31 patients (11 treatment-naïve and 20 treated) using single-cell/nucleus RNA sequencing, bulk-proteogenomics, spatial transcriptomics and cellular imaging. Subpopulations of tumor cells exhibited signatures of proliferation, KRAS signaling, cell stress and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Mapping mutations and copy number events distinguished tumor populations from normal and transitional cells, including acinar-to-ductal metaplasia and pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia. Pathology-assisted deconvolution of spatial transcriptomic data identified tumor and transitional subpopulations with distinct histological features. We showed coordinated expression of TIGIT in exhausted and regulatory T cells …

Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Faculty Research

The effects of organic and conventional production systems on crop productivity have been greatly explored, but their effects on soil microbial processes were often neglected. A comparative field study of organic and conventional production systems was conducted at the Tennessee State University research farm to determine soil heterotrophic respiration and microbial biomass carbon. Leafy green vegetables were grown in a conventional production system in an open field, and they were grown in an organic production system, using three different row covers (agribon cloth, insect net, and plastic), and in an open field. Soil samples (0-15cm) were collected from the two …

Lingering Effects Associated With The Consumer Use Of Virtual Reality, John Porter Iii, Andrew Robb Sep 2022

Lingering Effects Associated With The Consumer Use Of Virtual Reality, John Porter Iii, Andrew Robb

Open Access Publishing Fund

Since the release of the Oculus Rift CV1 in 2016, millions of VR headsets have made their way into consumers’ homes. Since then, users have created large quantities of data about their experiences in VR through posts made to online discussion forums. We examine this data to gain insights on what sorts of “lingering effects” users report having experienced after VR, and on the progression of these effects over time. We found three major categories of lingering effects (besides simulator sickness) during our qualitative analysis: perceptual effects, behavioral effects, and changes in dreams. The perceptual and behavioral categories were further …


The Cryptococcus Neoformans Flc1 Homologue Controls Calcium Homeostasis And Confers Fungal Pathogenicity In The Infected Hosts, Piotr R. Stempinski, Kristie D. Goughenour, Lukas M. Du Plooy, J. Andrew Alspaugh, Michal A. Olszewski, Lukasz Kozubowski Sep 2022

The Cryptococcus Neoformans Flc1 Homologue Controls Calcium Homeostasis And Confers Fungal Pathogenicity In The Infected Hosts, Piotr R. Stempinski, Kristie D. Goughenour, Lukas M. Du Plooy, J. Andrew Alspaugh, Michal A. Olszewski, Lukasz Kozubowski

Open Access Publishing Fund

Cryptococcus neoformans, an opportunistic yeast pathogen, relies on a complex network of stress response pathways that allow for proliferation in the host. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, stress responses are regulated by integral membrane proteins containing a transient receptor potential (TRP) domain, including the flavin carrier protein 1 (Flc1), which regulates calcium homeostasis and flavin transport. Here, we report that deletion of C. neoformans FLC1 results in cytosolic calcium elevation and increased nuclear content of calcineurin-dependent transcription factor Crz1, which is associated with an aberrant cell wall chitin overaccumulation observed in the flc1Δ mutant. Absence of Flc1 or inhibition …

Light Chain 2 Is A Tctex-Type Related Axonemal Dynein Light Chain That Regulates Directional Ciliary Motility In Trypanosoma Brucei, Subash Godar, James Oristian, Valerie Hinsch, Katherine Wentworth, Ethan Lopez, Parastoo Amlashi, Gerald Enverso, Samantha Markley, Joshua Daniel Alper

Open Access Publishing Fund

Flagellar motility is essential for the cell morphology, viability, and virulence of pathogenic kinetoplastids. Trypanosoma brucei flagella beat with a bending wave that propagates from the flagellum’s tip to its base, rather than base-to-tip as in other eukaryotes. Thousands of dynein motor proteins coordinate their activity to drive ciliary bending wave propagation. Dynein-associated light and intermediate chains regulate the biophysical mechanisms of axonemal dynein. Tctex-type outer arm dynein light chain 2 (LC2) regulates flagellar bending wave propagation direction, amplitude, and frequency in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. However, the role of Tctex-type light chains in regulating T. brucei motility is unknown. Here, we …

The Resilient Apostle: Paul’S Sufferings In 2 Corinthians Through The Lens Of Resilience, Marko Pavlič

Jesuit School of Theology Dissertations

2 Corinthians is considered one of the most personal among Paul’s undisputed letters. In a reconciling tone, Paul shares with the Corinthian churches his apostolic endeavors for the sake of the Gospel, offering hints of his sufferings and resilience. This research aims to read Paul’s sufferings in 2 Corinthians through the lens of trauma studies, particularly the concept of resilience. The paper uses an interdisciplinary approach by applying trauma theory as a hermeneutic to identify the ground and source of Paul’s ability to be resilient. The internal and external resources of Paul’s resilience are embedded in his relationship with Christ …

Some New Constructions Of Minimal Circular Partially Neighbor Balanced Designs, Muhammad Nadeem, Rashid Ahmed, Qaisar Mehmood, Berihan R. Elemary Sep 2022

Some New Constructions Of Minimal Circular Partially Neighbor Balanced Designs, Muhammad Nadeem, Rashid Ahmed, Qaisar Mehmood, Berihan R. Elemary

Journal of Statistics Applications & Probability

Neighbor balanced designs (NBDs) are used to balance the neighbor effects in the experiments where performance of a treatment is influenced with the treatments applied in its neighboring units. Among these designs, experimenters prefer minimal NBDs but minimal circular NBDs can be generated only for ν (number of treatments) odd. For v even, minimal partially neighbor balanced designs (PNBDs) may be considered as better alternates to the minimal NBDs. In this article, minimal circular PNBDs are constructed in which 3ν/2 unordered pairs of distinct treatments do not appear as neighbors.

Minimal Circular Nearly Strongly-Balanced Neighbor Designs When Left And Right Neighbor Effects Are Equal, Abdul Salam, Rashid Ahmed, Muhammad Daniyal, Berihan R. Elemary

Journal of Statistics Applications & Probability

In many agricultural and allied research, the response of a particular plot of a block may not only be affected by the treatment which has been applied to that plot but also may be affected by those treatments which have been applied to the adjacent plots of that particular plot. Such neighboring treatment effects become the major source of bias which may be reduced if neighbor balanced or strongly neighbor balanced designs are used. Strongly balanced neighbor designs play an important role to incorporate the neighbor effects. Method of cyclic shifts (Rule I) provides minimal strongly balanced designs for some …


Bayesian Estimation Of Traffic Intensity In M/D/1 Queue Relative To Balanced Loss Function, D. Nadayil Sep 2022

Bayesian Estimation Of Traffic Intensity In M/D/1 Queue Relative To Balanced Loss Function, D. Nadayil

Journal of Statistics Applications & Probability

In the Imbedded Markov Chain analysis of M/G/1 queue, X1, X2, ...Xn, ... is a sequence of i.i.d random variables. In particular, for the M/D/1 queue, the distribution of common random variable turns out to be well known Poisson distribution with mean ρ, the traffic intensity. In this article, the Bayes estimator of traffic intensity in steady state relative to the Balanced loss function (BLF) has been derived based on observations on X, the number of customer’s arrival during the customers service period. Admissibility and inadmissibility of the linear estimator under unconstrained optimization are also obtained.
