    Notes: Abstract Most models of atmospheric flow which use the primitive equations require a diagnostic equation to determine local total pressure. In hydrostatic models, this equation is the vertically integrated hydrostatic equation. A frequently used approximation to this integration is to hold the temperature constant within model layers yielding a linear proportionality between δp or δπ (Exner's function) and δz. This procedure yields static pressures with errors on the order of 10−3mb. If terrain following coordinates are used, terms arise in the horizontal momentum equations involving the gradient of total pressure along the coordinate surface, less a correction for the variation of the hydrostatic pressure along a sloped surface. Erroneous horizontal accelerations are common in these models which result from spurious pressure gradients that are due to inaccurate computation of the static pressure. This error may be amplified if the computation of the slope correction term of the horizontal pressure gradient is not consistent with the method of calculating the total pressure. We derive a methodology to be used in the vertical pressure integrations that is exact if the potential temperature lapse rate is constant between integration limits. The method is applied to both the integration of the hydrostatic equation and the computation of the slope correction term in the horizontal pressure gradient. The method employs a fixed vertical grid and a dynamic one defined by the significant levels in the vertical temperature distribution. With this methodology, the error in calculation of the horizontal pressure gradient acceleration is greatly reduced, especially in situations where the isothermal surfaces are not parallel to the vertical coordinate surfaces. The problem of aliasing and the treatment of significant temperature levels is described.

    Description: In vertebrate oocytes, meiotic progression is driven by the sequential translational activation of maternal messenger RNAs stored in the cytoplasm. This activation is mainly induced by the cytoplasmic elongation of their poly(A) tails, which is mediated by the cytoplasmic polyadenylation element (CPE) present in their 3' untranslated regions. In Xenopus oocytes, sequential phase-specific translation of CPE-regulated mRNAs is required to activate the maturation-promoting factor, which in turn mediates entry into the two consecutive meiotic metaphases (MI and MII). Here we report a genome-wide functional screening to identify previously unknown mRNAs cytoplasmically polyadenylated at meiotic phase transitions. A significant fraction of transcripts containing, in addition to CPEs, (A + U)-rich element (ARE) sequences (characteristic of mRNAs regulated by deadenylation) were identified. Among these is the mRNA encoding C3H-4, an ARE-binding protein that we find to accumulate in MI and the ablation of which induces meiotic arrest. Our results suggest that C3H-4 recruits the CCR4 deadenylase complex to ARE-containing mRNAs and this, in turn, causes shortening of poly(A) tails. We also show that the opposing activities of the CPEs and the AREs define the precise activation times of the mRNAs encoding the anaphase-promoting complex inhibitors Emi1 and Emi2 during distinct phases of the meiotic cycle. Taken together, our results show that an 'early' wave of cytoplasmic polyadenylation activates a negative feedback loop by activating the synthesis of C3H-4, which in turn would recruit the deadenylase complex to mRNAs containing both CPEs and AREs. This negative feedback loop is required to exit from metaphase into interkinesis and for meiotic progression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Belloc, Eulalia -- Mendez, Raul -- England -- Nature. 2008 Apr 24;452(7190):1017-21. doi: 10.1038/nature06809.

    Description: 〈p〉Strongly correlated materials are expected to feature unconventional transport properties, such that charge, spin, and heat conduction are potentially independent probes of the dynamics. In contrast to charge transport, the measurement of spin transport in such materials is highly challenging. We observed spin conduction and diffusion in a system of ultracold fermionic atoms that realizes the half-filled Fermi-Hubbard model. For strong interactions, spin diffusion is driven by super-exchange and doublon-hole–assisted tunneling, and strongly violates the quantum limit of charge diffusion. The technique developed in this work can be extended to finite doping, which can shed light on the complex interplay between spin and charge in the Hubbard model.〈/p〉

    Description: More than half of mammalian genes generate multiple messenger RNA isoforms that differ in their 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) and therefore in regulatory sequences, often associated with cell proliferation and cancer; however, the mechanisms coordinating alternative 3'-UTR processing for specific mRNA populations remain poorly defined. Here we report that the cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein 1 (CPEB1), an RNA-binding protein that regulates mRNA translation, also controls alternative 3'-UTR processing. CPEB1 shuttles to the nucleus, where it co-localizes with splicing factors and mediates shortening of hundreds of mRNA 3' UTRs, thereby modulating their translation efficiency in the cytoplasm. CPEB1-mediated 3'-UTR shortening correlates with cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. CPEB1 binding to pre-mRNAs not only directs the use of alternative polyadenylation sites, but also changes alternative splicing by preventing U2AF65 recruitment. Our results reveal a novel function of CPEB1 in mediating alternative 3'-UTR processing, which is coordinated with regulation of mRNA translation, through its dual nuclear and cytoplasmic functions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bava, Felice-Alessio -- Eliscovich, Carolina -- Ferreira, Pedro G -- Minana, Belen -- Ben-Dov, Claudia -- Guigo, Roderic -- Valcarcel, Juan -- Mendez, Raul -- England -- Nature. 2013 Mar 7;495(7439):121-5. doi: 10.1038/nature11901.

    Description: We present a spectral analysis of the black hole candidate and X-ray transient source Swift J1753.5–0127 making use of simultaneous observations of XMM–Newton and Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer in 2006, when the source was in outburst. The aim of this paper is to test whether a thermal component due to the accretion disc is present in the X-ray spectrum. We fit the data with a range of spectral models, and we find that for all of these models, the fits to the X-ray energy spectra significantly require the addition of the disc blackbody component. We also find a broad iron emission line at around 6.5 keV, most likely due to iron in the accretion disc. Our results confirm the existence of a cool inner disc extending near or close to the innermost circular orbit. We further discovered broad emission lines of N  vii and O  viii at ~0.52 and 0.65 keV, respectively, in the RGS spectrum of Swift J1753.5–0127.
