小群体互动与大学生寝室人际关系

运用小群体互动理论来分析大学生寝室人际关系,通过对上海某重点高校本科生生活园区的抽样调查数据,运用有序变量的logistic回归分析影响大学生寝室人际关系的主要因素。研究发现寝室人际关系在性别、是否独生子女、家庭条件、学科、年级均不存在显著差异,其主要影响因素是大学生对于寝室的价值定位、和室友聊天的时间以及参与寝室公共活动的多少等。     

过江隧道穿越既有铁路相互影响研究

过江隧道穿越既有铁路的相互影响是一个难点.依托重庆长江隧道穿越襄渝铁路工程进行研究,研究结果表明：过江隧道施工对既有铁路两个方向地表沉降的影响都很小,最大值为2.549 mm,故受影响的既有铁路附近地层不需做特殊加固处理,但要加强监控;既有铁路对过江隧道结构安全性及洞周位移影响也较小,在列车荷载作用下结构最小安全系数为6.8,过江隧道结构仍是偏于安全的,故隧道结构可不作加固处理,只需加强监控.研究成果为保证既有铁路的正常运营及过江隧道的结构安全性提供了理论基础,并可为相似工程提供参考.     

Functions of reticulons in plants: What we can learn from animals and yeasts

Reticulons (RTNs) are membrane-spanning proteins sharing a typical domain named reticulon homology domain (RHD). RTN genes have been identified in all eukaryotic organisms examined so far, and the corresponding proteins have been found predominantly associated to the endoplasmic reticulum membranes. In animal and yeast, in which knowledge of the protein family is more advanced, RTNs are involved in numerous cellular processes such as apoptosis, cell division and intracellular trafficking. Up to now, a little attention has been paid to their plant counterparts, i.e., RTNLBs. In this review, we summarize the data available for RTNLB proteins and, using the data obtained with animal and yeast models, several functions for RTNLBs in plant cells are proposed and discussed.

囚徒困境中基于非均匀连接的促合作控制设计

本文研究"囚徒困境"中促进合作演化的机制,设计"合作识别"和"背叛识别"两种控制形式,并分析合作在相应控制之下的演化路径问题.在合作识别控制设计中,通过将博弈群体分为合作者子群体和合作者与背叛者共存子群体,形成连接率依赖于个体策略的"非均匀连接",以保护合作的方式抑制背叛,促进合作演化;在背叛识别控制设计中,以惩罚背叛的方式鼓励合作.文章指出,合作识别控制设计能在合作率较低时促进合作,但不能使合作成为演化稳定策略(ESS);背叛识别控制设计能在合作率较高时使合作成为ESS,但是背叛总是该控制下的ESS.结合"合作识别"控制与"背叛识别"控制,本文设计一种切换控制,使得合作是"囚徒困境"博弈的唯一ESS.仿真给出不同要求下的控制律设计,分析不同切换选择对合作演化路径的影响.

Interaction model of artificial fish in virtual environment

Conventional artificial fish has some shortages on the interaction with environment, other fish, and the animator. This article proposes a multi-tier interaction control model of artificial fish, realizes the interaction model through integration of virtual reality technology and Markov sequence, and provides a virtual marine world to describe the interaction between artificial fish and the virtual environment and the interaction between the artificial fish and the animator. Simulation results show that the interaction model owns not only the basic characteristics of virtual biology, but also has high trueness interaction function.     

Betaine homocysteine S-methyltransferase: just a regulator of homocysteine metabolism?

Betaine homocysteine methyltransferase (BHMT), a Zn²⁺-dependent thiolmethyltransferase, contributes to the regulation of homocysteine levels, increases in which are considered a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Most plasma homocysteine is generated through the liver methionine cycle, in which BHMT metabolizes approximately 25% of this non-protein amino acid. This process allows recovery of one of the three methylation equivalents used in phosphatidylcholine synthesis through transmethylation, a major homocysteine-producing pathway. Although BHMT has been known for over 40 years, the difficulties encountered in its isolation precluded detailed studies until very recently. Thus, the last 10 years, since the sequence became available, have yielded extensive structural and functional data. Moreover, recent findings offer clues for potential new functions for BHMT. The purpose of this review is to provide an integrated view of the knowledge available on BHMT, and to analyze its putative roles in other processes through interactions uncover to date.

On the self-association potential of transmembrane tight junction proteins

Tight junctions seal intercellular clefts via membrane-related strands, hence, maintaining important organ functions. We investigated the self-association of strand-forming transmembrane tight junction proteins. The regulatory tight junction protein occludin was differently tagged and cotransfected in eucaryotic cells. These occludins colocalized within the plasma membrane of the same cell, coprecipitated and exhibited fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Differently tagged strand-forming claudin-5 also colocalized in the plasma membrane of the same cell and showed fluorescence resonance energy transfer. This demonstrates self-association in intact cells both of occludin and claudin-5 in one plasma membrane. In search of dimerizing regions of occludin, dimerization of its cytosolic C-terminal coiledcoil domain was identified. In claudin-5, the second extracellular loop was detected as a dimer. Since the transmembrane junctional adhesion molecule also is known to dimerize, the assumption that homodimerization of transmembrane tight junction proteins may serve as a common structural feature in tight junction assembly is supported.
