    Description: The RstA/RstB system is a bacterial two-component regulatory system consisting of the membrane sensor, RstB and its cognate response regulator (RR) RstA. The RstA of Klebsiella pneumoniae (kpRstA) consists of an N-terminal receiver domain (RD, residues 1–119) and a C-terminal DNA-binding domain (DBD, residues 130–236). Phosphorylation of kpRstA induces dimerization, which allows two kpRstA DBDs to bind to a tandem repeat, called the RstA box, and regulate the expression of downstream genes. Here we report the solution and crystal structures of the free kpRstA RD, DBD and DBD/RstA box DNA complex. The structure of the kpRstA DBD/RstA box complex suggests that the two protomers interact with the RstA box in an asymmetric fashion. Equilibrium binding studies further reveal that the two protomers within the kpRstA dimer bind to the RstA box in a sequential manner. Taken together, our results suggest a binding model where dimerization of the kpRstA RDs provides the platform to allow the first kpRstA DBD protomer to anchor protein–DNA interaction, whereas the second protomer plays a key role in ensuring correct recognition of the RstA box.

    Notes: A microcomputer-aided ultrasonic system that can be used to measure the vibratory displacements of an object is presented. A pair of low cost 40-kHz ultrasonic transducers is used to transmit ultrasound toward an object and receive the ultrasound reflected from the object. The relative motion of the object modulates the phase angle difference between the transmitted and received ultrasound signals. A single-chip microcomputer-based phase detector was designed to record and analyze the phase shift information which is then sent to a PC-AT microcomputer for processing. We have developed an ingenious method to reconstruct the relative motion of an object from the acquired data of the phase difference changes. A digital plotter based experiment was also designed for testing the performance of the whole system. The measured accuracy of the system in the reported experiments is within ±0.4 mm and the theoretical maximal measurable speed of the object is 89.6 cm/s. The main advantages of this ultrasonic vibration measurement system are high resolution, low cost, noncontact measurement and it is easily installed.

    Notes: An overlayer system composed of a thin film on the top of a semi-infinite substrate was studied in this work for electron inelastic interactions. Analytical expressions for the depth-dependent inelastic differential and integral inverse mean free paths were derived for both incident and escaping electrons. The interface (film-substrate) effect and the surface (vacuum-film) effect were analyzed by comparing the results of an overlayer system and a semi-infinite system. It was found that the interface effect extended to several angstroms on both sides of the interface for a 500 eV electron incident into or escaping from the vacuum–SiO2–Si and the vacuum–Au–Ni systems. An application of the spatial-varying inelastic differential inverse mean free paths was made by Monte Carlo simulations of the electron elastic backscattering from an overlayer system. Good agreement was found between results calculated presently and data measured experimentally on the elastic reflection coefficient. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The objective of this paper is to improve gravimetric terrain corrections by: (1) investigating the effect of different topographic representations that are suitable for efficient processing of high volumes of data (e.g. the mass prism and the mass line models) on terrain corrections and on geiod computations; (2) accelerating the convergence of fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based terrain-correction formulae; and (3) developing a set of new formulae corresponding to the mass prism topographic model, which can be evaluated efficiently with the 2-D FFT.Terrain corrections were computed on a grid of 600 by 600 points with spacing 30″ by 60″ in the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia, Canada. the effect of using the mass line model instead of the mass prism model is 7.4 mGal (maximum) and 0.7mGal (rms) on the terrain corrections, and 24cm (maximum) and 16cm (rms) on the geoid undulations. the optimizations made on the FFT-based terrain-correction formulae effectively speed up the convergence. the newly developed mass prism terrain-correction formula significantly reduced the required computer time and provided identical results with those from the rigorous numerical integration. On an IBM/RISC machine running AIX, the computation of the 15 convolutions (the matrix size was expanded to 1200 by 1200 after 100 per cent zero-padding) via the new formulae only took 15 min (user time), while the numerical summation method required 83.5 days.

    Notes: Abstract The roles which dust layers play in severe dust explosions were investigated in a 70 m long and 30 cm inside diameter horizontal Flame Acceleration Tube (FAT) with one end closed and the other end open to the atmosphere. A variety of dusts such as corn dust, cornstarch, Mira Gel starch, wheat dust, and wood flour were layered on the bottom half of the FAT. To initiate the combustion process, a detonation tube filled with a stoichiometric H2/O2 mixture at room temperature and 1 atm pressure was used to ignite a short presuspended dust cloud with a dust concentration of 500–600 g/m3. Combustion waves generated by this dust cloud travel toward the open end of the FAT and are continuously fueled by the dust/air mixtures. Flame propagation processes in the FAT were closely monitored by a variety of measuring instruments at different locations. The study demonstrates that stable quasi-detonation were reached in some runs, but self-sustained Chapman-Jouguet detonations were not observed possibly due to the limitation of the tube length. Attempts were made to determine the structure of dust detonations fueled by a dust layer. Preliminary evidence indicates that for Mira Gel starch the leading shock is essentially a triple shock configuration which involves a Mach stem and for wheat and wood dusts there possibly exists a multi-headed spin structure.

    Notes: Abstract  Genetic diversity at 28 microsatellite loci was studied in a natural population of Triticum dicoccoides at the Ammiad microsite, north of the Sea of Galilee, Israel. This microsite was subdivided into four major habitats, North, Valley, Ridge and Karst, and further subdivided into nine subhabitats. The units thus defined showed strong and highly significant differentiation in ecological factors; in particular with respect to cover, proximity and height of rocks, and surface soil moisture after early rains. The results showed that allele distributions at microsatellite loci were nonrandom and associated with habitats. Significant genetic differentiation and variation in repeat number were found among subpopulations in the four major habitats and nine subhabitats. Habitat-specific and -unique alleles and linkage disequilibria were observed in the Karst subpopulation. The subpopulations dwelling in drier habitats and subhabitats showed higher genetic diversities at microsatellite loci. These results suggest that natural selection, presumably through aridity stress, acts upon microsatellite divergence predominantly on noncoding sequences, thereby contributing to differences in fitness.
