▼ Climate change will exacerbate challenges facing food security in the UK. Increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events will further impact upon farm systems. At the heart of the impending challenges to UK agricultural production, farmers’ resilience will be tested to new limits. Research into farmers’ resilience to climate change in the UK is distinctly underdeveloped when compared to research in developing and other developed nations. This research gap is addressed through exploration of farmers’ resilience in the Welsh Marches, establishing the role of risk perceptions, local knowledge and adaptive capacity in farmers’ decision-making to limit climate shocks. Further contributions to agricultural geography are made through experimentation of a ‘cultural-behavioural approach’, seeking to revisit the behavioural approach in view of the cultural-turn. The Welsh Marches, situated on the English-Welsh border, has been selected as a focal point due to its agricultural diversity, and known experiences of extreme weather events. A phased mixed methodological approach is adopted. Phase one explores recorded and reported experiences of past extreme weather events in local meteorological records and local newspaper articles. Phase two consists of 115 survey-questionnaires, 15 in-depth semi-structured interviews, and a scenario based focus group with selected farmers from the Welsh Marches. This allows farmers’ resilience to climate change in the past, present and future to be explored. Original contributions to knowledge are made through demonstrating the value of focusing upon the culture of a specific farm community, applying a ‘bottom-up’ approach. The priority given to the weather in farmers’ decision-making is identified to be determined by individual relationships that farmers’ develop with the weather. Yet, a consensus of farmers’ observations has established recognition of considerable changes in the weather over the last 30 years, acknowledging more extremes and seasonal variations. In contrast, perceptions of future climate change are largely varied. Farmers are found to be disengaged with the communication of climate change science, as the global impacts portrayed are distant in time and place from probable impacts that may be experienced locally. Current communication of climate change information has been identified to alienate farmers from the local reality of probable future impacts. Adaptation options and responses to extreme weather and climate change are identified from measures found to be already implemented and considered for the future. A greater need to explore local knowledge and risk perception in relation to farmers’ understanding of future climate challenges is clear. There is a need to conduct comparable research in different farm communities across the UK. Progression into establishing the role of farmers’ resilience in responding effectively to future climate challenges has only just begun.

▼ This thesis examines the role and use of indigenous knowledge within small-scale agricultural systems in Africa and its relevance in development practice and theory. Using development programmes that have been implemented in the study area from the colonial to the recent times, many of which were largely underpinned by modernisation theory and practice, indigenous knowledge theory and practice is analysed for its role in development processes. The roles of the private sector, NGOs and the government are analysed, based on a chronology of development programmes that were underpinned in many instances by the influences of the major development theories and the subsequent introduction of the structural adjustment programmes by the IMF and the World Bank. Particular emphasis is placed on farmers’ responses to externally induced development programmes, designed by experts for farmers to adopt. In their assessment of these externally driven development programmes, there is a manifestation of the extent of the resilience of local knowledge to its displacement by Western knowledge. Scientifically proven technologies are assessed by farmers for their effectiveness under their farming practices that take into account a range of environmental, socio-cultural and economic factors. Indigenous knowledge is frequently found to be effective in resisting those changes that are undesirable and of little relevance at both farm and community levels. For farmers, knowledge that is useful and of practical use is adopted, or adapted, only when it is assessed, and, in many cases, this is only after trials have been successfully completed. Knowledge that is of little benefit to farmers is discarded irrespective of its type (indigenous or Western), or its source. This study forms the basis for understanding the importance of indigenous knowledge in development practice arising from its existence at farm level and the fact that it is continuously being fined-tuned to suit specific conditions and situations, which are in turn affected by socio-cultural, economic and environmental factors. The findings of this study also show that there are many benefits from using indigenous knowledge in development practice that include the empowerment of local people through their participation in development programmes. Indigenous knowledge is also found to be resilient and beneficial to farmers regardless of income level by reducing their costs of production, to be adaptable to different environmental and economic circumstances, and to provide for a more sustainable use of resources in farming. There is, however, a need for further studies in indigenous knowledge utilisation to enable researchers to keep pace with changes that occur at the local level if development theory and practice are to utilise indigenous knowledge fully and successfully.

Les acides nucléiques riches en guanines ou en cytosines peuvent se replier sur eux-mêmes et former des systèmes tétramériques tels que les G-quadruplexes (G4) ou les i-motifs. Ces motifs, abondamment représentés dans certaines régions du génome humain semblent contribuer à la régulation cellulaire et suscitent depuis plusieurs années un intérêt grandissant. Ils sont notamment présents dans la région télomérique, mais aussi dans les promoteurs d’oncogènes ou au sein des génomes viraux et sont impliqués dans certaines pathologies humaines. Ils représentent ainsi des cibles thérapeutiques et diagnostiques potentielles. Cependant, les G4 adoptent in-vitro des topologies variées qui compliquent le développement de ligands spécifiques et affins. Dans ce contexte, le laboratoire a développé le concept du TASQ pour ‘‘Template Assembled Synthetic G-Quadruplex’’ dans le but d'accéder à des G4 se structurant en une topologie définie.Le premier chapitre décrit l’assemblage de mimes de motifs G4 contraints en une topologie unique. En utilisant un gabarit cyclodécapeptide rigide et différentes méthodes de conjugaison, nous avons assemblé des motifs G4 ARN parallèle et hybride ADN/ARN dérivant de la séquence télomérique ainsi qu’un motif G4 d’ADN présent dans la séquence promotrice du VIH-1. L’utilisation du concept TASQ nous a également permis de préparer un motif G-triplexe (G3), intermédiaire à la formation des motifs G4. Nous avons montré une forte stabilisation de tous les édifices G4 contraints ainsi préparés.Le second chapitre concerne les études de caractérisation et de sélection de ligands vis-à-vis des motifs G4 et G3 contraints. La caractérisation repose sur l’évaluation de l’affinité et de la sélectivité de différentes familles de ligands pour ces édifices, par résonance plasmonique de surface ou par interférométrie bio-couche. La sélection de ligands a été réalisée par la méthode SELEX dans le but d’obtenir des aptamères affins et spécifiques d’un motif G4 contraint.

Guanines or cytosines rich nucleic acids can fold into tetrameric G-quadruplexes (G4) or i-motifs structures. G4 motifs are found within the human genome and should contribute to cellular regulation. In particular G4 are found at telomeric region and also in promoters of oncogenes or within viral genomes. They are suspected of participating in the regulation of human pathologies and have therefore been envisioned as potential therapeutic and diagnostic targets. However, the intrinsic conformational polymorphism of G4 motifs complicates the development of specific and affine ligands. In this context, the laboratory has developed the TASQ concept for "Template Assembled Synthetic G-Quadruplex" with the aim to obtain a defined G4 topology.The first chapter reports on the assembly on the peptide template of RNA and DNA:RNA hybrid G4 structures that derive from the human telomeric sequence as well as of DNA G4 structure found within the HIV virus promoter. G-triplex (G3) motif which is supposed to be an intermediate during the formation of the G4 motifs has…

The intention with this study is to look into what and how children at the age of two and a half and three years old expresses about bridges. The study is qualitative and have been completed with unstructured pre- and after interveiews and participant observation with two different groups with in total four children that have been introduced to different materials representing bridges. The difference between the materials is that the first group in the pre interview have been introduced to a toy representing a bridge that the children know from before and a book with the three Billy goats, unlike the second group that had no connection to a story. In the study the four children have been in two different groups. All children in age two and a half to three years old have been completed a pree interview before they went to town to search for bridges and a following interview after that. The results are based on all of the occasions. The children expressed their understanding of the bridge`s function about crossing over to reach the other side. The fence is needed to not roll over and can be a protection. The bridge also often have a stairs so you can go up on the bridge. The results shows that the children talks about bridges through for them known stories and games regardless if they did get a story presented or not. Through the childrens telling and playing, the study shows that the children possess understanding of the function of the bridge because of their explanations about how you need to walk over the bridge to cross over to the other side and not get wet. The children also talks about the different parts like fence and stairs and their function to the bridge.

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka vad och hur barn i ålder två och ett halvt till tre år uttrycker sig om broar. Studien är kvalitativ och har genomförts med ostrukturerad för- och slutintervju samt deltagande observation med två olika grupper där sammanlagt fyra barn fått se olika material föreställande broar presenterade framför sig. Skillnad på material är att första gruppen har en leksaksbro samt en bok om Bockarna Bruse med vid förintervjun till skillnad från den andra gruppen där ingen koppling till saga presenterades. Efter att barnen genomfört för intervjun har de deltagit i en aktivitet där de fått leta efter broar för att sedan åter igen samtala kring broar i en slutintervju. Resultatet grundas på alla tillfällena. Barnen uttryckte sin förståelse för att bron används för att ta sig över vatten och nå andra sidan. Staket behövs för att inte trilla långt ned men kan också skydda. Bron innehar ibland olika funktioner som exempelvis en trappa så man kan ta sig upp på bron. Resultatet visar att barnen samtalar om broar genom en för dem känd saga och lek oavsett om sagan presenterades för dem eller inte. Genom barnens berättande och lek kan man se att barnen innehar förståelse för broars funktion då barnen berättar att man behöver gå över bron för att exempelvis ta sig till andra sidan samt inte bli blöt. Barnen samtalar även om de…

▼ Information Technology (IT) has become indispensable in contemporary business processes and in business value creation strategies. Those charged with governance, risk management and compliance are, often, challenged by sophisticated IT oriented decision-making dilemmas due to complex IT use in contemporary business processes. Investors and other stakeholders increasingly expect very rich, reliable and transparent assurance that their interests are safe. Auditors, as a result, are looked upon to expand their role to leverage the functions of those charged with governance and management. IT audit literature, hence, demonstrates existence of several best practices aimed at meeting the increasing demand for more audit and assurance outcomes that bridge the widening audit expectations gaps. In developing countries with less stringent regulatory systems, however, attempts to implement many of these frameworks have proved unsuccessful. Reasons include paucity of guidance in the frameworks and lack of suitable theoretical foundations to resort to for solutions to implementation challenges. Extant literature review reveals scanty research effort by practitioners or academicians in the field in the empirical situation to design a more suitable framework to serve as intervention. In this research an attempt has been made to create an intervention by designing a framework, i.e. an artefact for IT auditing for less regulated business environments. By adductive inference the cybernetics theory of viable systems approach was ingrained as the theoretical foundation from which the variables for the design were extracted. The abduction was based on the diagnostic power and ability to support self-regulation in a less regulatory environment. Action design research (ADR) approach was employed to achieve the research objective. Both qualitative and quantitative techniques were found to be useful for the evaluation and data analysis. At the design phase, a multiple case study method together with workshops were employed to gain insight into the problem and to collect data to support the design process. Four organisations from both public and private sectors in Ghana were selected to participate in the research. At the evaluation stage a survey technique was used to collect data mainly for the validation of construct variables and the refinement of the framework. The questionnaire scale used was 1=Strongly Disagree; 2=Disagree; 3=Somewhat Agree; 4=Agree and 5=Strongly Agree. A total of 136 respondents who included IT audit and Internal audit practitioners, Audit trainees and students, Directors and management staff were involved from four selected organisations. A factor analysis yielded twenty variables extracted from the ingrained theory for the building of a conceptual model which were grouped into six factors or domains. The entire conceptual model was tested with PLS-SEM technique because of the causal relationships that motivated the development of the conceptual hypotheses. A composite reliability used to assess the internal… Advisors/Committee Members: Kyobe, Michael (advisor).

O presente trabalho foi realizado no Município de Grossos RN e teve como principais objetivos à elaboração de um levantamento sócio-econômico, físico-ambiental e execução uma avaliação multitemporal de 11 anos, entre o período de 1986 e 1996, utilizando-se de produtos de sensores orbitais, para avaliar as modificações ocorridas na utilização e ocupação do solo, visando a geração de uma base informacional para implementação de um Sistema de Informações Geográficas (SIG) voltado para a gestão ambiental do referido Município. Para tanto foram levantados dados referentes a dois Censos Demográficos realizados pelo IBGE (1991 e 2000) e comparados, desta forma foi possível à realização de uma avaliação sobre os aspectos demográficos (grau de urbanização, estrutura etária, nível educacional) e econômicos (renda, habitação, vulnerabilidade, desenvolvimento humano). Para o levantamento físico ambiental foram confeccionados os mapas dos recursos naturais (geologia simplificada, hidrografia, geomorfologia, cobertura vegetal, associação de solos, uso e ocupação), baseados em observações de campo e produtos orbitais de sensoriamento remoto (imagens SPOT-HRVIR, Landsat 5-TM e IKONOS - II), utilizando-se de técnicas de processamento de imagens digitais. O levantamento destes dados e importante na identificação das potencialidades e fragilidades dos ecossistemas encontrados, pois permite um planejamento adequado do desenvolvimento sócio-econômico por meio de um gerenciamento eficaz. O projeto fez parte de uma parceria entre a Prefeitura municipal de GrossosRN e o Programa de Pós-graduação em Geociências da UFRN, mais especificamente o Laboratório de Geomática LAGEOMA

The requirement for reliability and security in power system is increasing every passingday with the increase in complexity of the power system. To ensure highest level ofreliability, protection relays have to receive correct measurements. One of the most importantmeasurement that is needed by a relay as an input is current. However, currentmeasurements received from current transformer (CT) can become inaccurate due to aphenomenon called CT saturation. This Master's thesis objective is to build a novel algorithmfor the protection relays to detect CT saturation. The algorithm should be basedon a stand-alone method that is able to detect CT saturation within 1-2 ms for a samplingfrequency of 4 kHz.This project comprises a study of the background about CTs and CT saturation. Therelated work done to detect CT saturation is also studied. Later, major existing methodsused in the industry to deal with CT saturation are investigated in detail and modelledin Simulink. A novel method is proposed to exclusively detect CT saturation, keeping inmind the strict requirements, set in the beginning of the project. The proposed methodis implemented in Simulink and HiDraw(in-house software in ABB to create C code forprotection functions). Lastly, the proposed method and the existing methods are testedin Simulink for more than 1300 test cases based on dierent power system conditions,IEC-60255-187-1 and real current recordings from relays.The results of the tests showed that the proposed method successfully detect CT saturationand was better than the existing methods in terms of speed and accuracy. It was concludedthat the proposed method successfully detects CT saturation and hence, can be used withany protection function in a relay where there is a need to detect CT saturation.

▼ V Sloveniji je področje ravnanja s komunalnimi odpadki urejeno z zakonodajnim okvirom, ki predpisuje in obvezuje občine, da vzpostavijo javna podjetja ravnanja s komunalnimi odpadki, kamor spada zbiranje, obdelava in odlaganje odpadkov. Med obveznosti sodijo zagotovitev primerne infrastrukture, doseganje predpisanih deležev ločeno zbranih frakcij in ustrezna obdelava odpadkov ter odlaganje ostankov na tehnično primerna odlagališča (zakon 1, 2006, uredba 1, 2006, uredba 2, 2010, uredba 3, 2011, uredba 4, 2011, odredba 1, 2001, operativni program 1, 2008, operativni program 4, 2013). Velika razdrobljenost in nepovezanost slovenskih občin ter pomanjkanje ustrezne strategije in aktivnosti pri vzpostavitvi ustreznih sistemov ravnanja z odpadki se kaže v neprimernosti organizacije sistema ravnanja z odpadki in stroškovno obremenjujočem sistemu za ustanovitelje (občine) in uporabnike (občane). Problem je v tem, da mora v skladu z zakonodajo (zakon 2, 1993) vsaka občina s svojim javnim podjetjem ali koncesionarjem zagotavljati storitve, ki jih kot posamezna občina enostavno ne more. Graditve posameznega objekta MBO (mehansko biološke obdelave odpadkov) in odlagališča ne more izvesti vsaka občina posebej, ker je to s stroškovnega in tehnološkega vidika popolnoma neprimerno. Država je ponudila nepovratna sredstva EU in določen delež lastnih sredstev za vse občine, ki se povežejo v konzorcije (ali podobne oblike) in skupaj zgradijo centre za obdelavo odpadkov ter odlagališča. V celotni finančni perspektivi 2007–2013 je trenutno delujoč en center. V fazi projektiranja jih je še pet. Problematika skupnih medobčinskih projektov in posledično neuspešnost pri izgradnji ustreznih centrov za obdelavo odpadkov je v različnih politikah oblikovanja sistemov ravnanja z odpadki, povezovanju občin, umeščanju objektov, financiranju investicij, vodenju skupnih objektov itd. (operativni program 4, 2013). Na področju zbiranja ločeno zbranih frakcij se je na ravni občin vzpostavil sistem, pri katerem sta stopnja in kakovost ločevanja ustrezna. Za področje obdelave in odlaganja komunalnih odpadkov pa bi bilo potrebno organizacijsko in lastniško preoblikovanje, ki bi zagotavljanje oziroma izvajanje teh storitev preneslo na raven države. Osnovni namen magistrskega dela je analiza dejavnikov, ki vplivajo na sistem ravnanja s komunalnimi odpadki in oblikovanje modela, ki bo ustrezen z okoljskega, organizacijskega, tehničnega in ekonomskega vidika ter izvedljiv in transparenten. Oblikovali smo tri različne organizacijske modele in model obstoječega stanja in jih ocenjevali glede njihove ustreznosti in uspešnosti. Uporaba orodja DEXi je bila z izborom in uporabo devetinštiridesetih parametrov, ki opredeljujejo ustreznost modela, odločujoča pri izbiri modela za ravnanje s komunalnimi odpadki z vidika organizacijskih, ekonomskih, tehničnih in okoljsko zakonodajno oblikovanih parametrov. Cilj magistrskega dela je organizacijski model sistema ravnanja s komunalnimi odpadki, ki bo učinkovit, transparenten in stimulativen. Sistem mora zagotavljati… Advisors/Committee Members: Senegačnik, Marjan.

▼ CdTe films were deposited by sputtering technique and were then carried out by CdCl2 treatment. The SEM micrographs show that the grain sizes of the as-deposited CdTe film were normally ranged from 50 nm to 100 nm, and they were recrystallized after CdCl2 treatment to obtain the grain sizes in the range of 1~3 Î¼m. A new device structure for CdTe thin-film solar cells has been proposed to exceed the cell efficiency of current record. The superstrate structure with the layer sequence of Glass/AZO/ZnO/CdS/CdTe/CI(G)S/Mo compared with the conventional device structure of Glass/FTO/CdS/CdTe/metal contact would have the following advantages:(1) a highly conductive AZO layer combined with a thin undoped ZnO layer will have higher optical transmission than that of FTO; (2) the use of p-type CIS under the CdTe layer with the same conductivity type can extend the light absorption to longer wavelength range (the band gaps of CdTe and CIS are 1.45eV and 1.04eV, respectively); (3) the proper addition of Ga to CIS may form CIGS quaternary compounds with a bandgap gradient which produce an electric field in the neutral region of a p-n junction to reduce the carrier recombination; (4) the use of Mo contact to CI(G)S is quite stable as compared with the metal contact normally used for p-CdTe. AMPS-1D simulation had been applied to evaluate the newly designed device structure and the results indicated a great improvement in device performance, i.e. the cell efficiency could exceed 20%. The I-V curve of a CdTe solar cell using the new device structure showed a nearly linear characteristic indicating the failure to form a p-n junction. We speculated that Cu might diffuse through the CdTe layer to the depletion region of the p-n junction formed at the CdS/CdTe interface. This would cause the junction failure. Based on the calculation on the Cu diffusion during the deposition of CIS layer at different temperatures even as low as 150˚C, it always had the chance to diffuse through the CdTe layer. An alternate device fabrication process was the use of the substrate structure for preparing CdTe solar cells, i.e. Glass/Mo/CIS/CdTe/CdS/ZnO/AZO/Al. However, the desired diode behavior was not observed until the thickness of CdTe layer was cut down to 10 nm. The electrical properties of that particular solar cell is the following:Voc=0.36V, Isc=4.991mA/cm2, F.F.=25.3%, efficiency=0.472%. It is probably that the lattice mismatch between CIS and CdTe is large that may cause the formation of interfacial defects and the reduction of photo excited carriers through the recombination processes. The annealing processes had been conducted in order to promote the interdiffusion between CdTe and CIS and minimize the lattice mismatch. However, the films peered off after annealing. Further experiments should be done to solve this problem. Advisors/Committee Members: Tsung-ming Tsai (chair), Bae-heng Tseng (committee member), Mau-phon Houng (chair).

▼ Konings & Kappelhoff design agency is a product design agency with expertise in designing juvenile products, among others. Because of their expertise, network and some unfinished work requiring attention, they expressed the wish to investigate design opportunities in the area of child transportation. The graduation assignment that followed means twofold: ‘Explore possible product opportunities in the field of child transportation’ and ‘elaborate one of the resulting product opportunities into a viable concept’. In order to do this, the project was split into three phases. Phase 1: Analysis In this phase a situation sketch was made depicting all aspects of the process of transporting children. The target group consists of parents in its broadest sense: people who (recently) had a child and value safety and comfort for their child above all. The environment consists of various different starting points and destinations, transport solutions and competing consumer products, for example strollers or car seats. Because of the focus on children’s products, regulation (i-Size) and standards apply. Also, user research was done aiming for the opinion of parents concerning the current situation of children’s mobility (products). Phase 2: Synthesis In the second phase the results from the first phase are synthesized. This is done by means of a ‘customer journey’, a timeline depicting the typical travelling process of various parents with their children. When linking all research results to this journey, it shows if and where there are gaps in the current situation, leading to various product opportunities. Together with Konings & Kappelhoff, the choice has been made to pursue two mutually reinforcing product opportunities: a revolving Child Restraint System (CRS) that is easily accessible and one that features a detachable lightweight infant carrier and a base seat with all necessary safety features. Phase 3: Conceptualization In the third phase, the two product opportunities have been elaborated into one idea: ‘Develop a new type of i-Size child restraint system that enables parents to comfortably transport their child towards and from the car and enables them to easily install it in the car.’ This concept improves current product features of handling and accessing a CRS: - The concept provides an easy infant carrying solution - The concept provides an easy-access CRS - The concept provides additional safety for the occupants A physical model has been built and tested to show to what extend the concept satisfies the design goal. The concepts handles enable parents to transport a child of up to 1 year comfortably towards their car. A carrying strap enables them to transport a child of up to 2 years over the same distance. Various recommendations have been made for further improvement. The concept has been elaborated up to a conceptual level. This enables Konings & Kappelhoff to market the concept as an idea, allowing the participation of third parties in a intended future joint design process.

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Staphylococcus aureus is the causative agent of a high number of acute and chronic diseases. The ability of this bacterium to cause disease can be attributed to a massive range of virulence factors to facilitate penetration and invasion of host tissues. It is also likely that its success as a pathogen can be partly attributed to the remarkable ability to rapidly adapt to multiple and continuous changes in the environment including temperature, pH and osmotic pressure. The acclimation of this bacterium was thought to occur through a wide range of processes including alterations in metabolic and proteomic profiles. These alterations in metabolic profiles and proteomic composition were proposed to lead to the generation of new phenotypes. These phenotypes, e.g. small colony variants, were found to be more resilient and represent a survival strategy used by some bacteria, including staphylococci species to withstand alterations in environmental conditions. The primary aim of this thesis was to study the adjustments that occur in cytoplasmic metabolites and proteins in S. aureus in response to environmental stresses. Bacterial cells from the same stock culture were exposed a range of environmental conditions for comparison of the cytoplasmic metabolite and protein compositions to determine whether measurable and differential adaptive mechanisms could be determined. It was hypothesised that S. aureus would adjust its metabolic profiles and protein composition to facilitate survival under the growth conditions tested. The first study harvested cells at the mid exponential phase of growth under ideal conditions at 37ºC for comparison with equivalent sets of cells which were exposed to prolonged cold stress for 2 weeks at 4 °C. Principle component analysis (PCA) of the metabolomic and proteomic data indicated that the prolonged exposures to cold stress conditions generated cells with different metabolite and protein profiles compared with corresponding cells harvested at the mid-exponential phase of growth. All replicate samples from the prolonged cold treatment were tightly clustered and well resolved from the control reference samples. The ribosomal proteins S1, S7, S8, L3, L5, L10, L17, L24, L25, and L30 and citric acid were substantially elevated in the cytoplasmic fractions from the cells adapted to cold-stress but most amino acids showed a reduction in their concentration in cold-stressed samples. This study provided strong evidence supporting the hypothesis that specific changes in metabolic homeostasis and protein composition were essential for acclimatized processes necessarily for empowering survival in response to prolonged cold stress. The response of S. aureus to multiple combination of environmental conditions to mimic those on the human skin or within a wound site: pH6-8, temperature 35-37 °C, and 0-5% NaCl added, was also investigated. Cultures grown under optimal conditions at 37°C and pH7 with no additional NaCl were designated as…

▼ It is well known that B-form DNA is not the only structure formed in the genome. In addition to the genetic information encoded in the nucleotide sequence of genomic DNA, non-B-form structures provide a second layer of information to regulate genome functions. G-quadruplex (G4) and i-Motif (i-M) are two four-stranded non-B-form structures formed in the guanine (G)- rich and cytosine (C)-rich regions of the genome, respectively. Recently, G4 DNA was visualized in human cells. Despite strong in vitro evidence that C-rich sequences can fold into i-M structures, the in vivo existence of these structures in the human genome has remained elusive to date. I have generated an antibody fragment (called i-Mab) that recognizes i-M structures with exquisite selectivity and affinity. For the first time, by visualizing i-M structures using i-Mab, I have shown that these structures are dynamically formed in the nuclei of human cells. I demonstrate that the in vivo formation of i-Ms is cell-cycle and pH dependent. In addition, I provide evidence that telomeres might adopt i-M structures. These results support the notion that i-Ms, in concert with G4s, could impart biologically relevant roles in the functioning of the genome. In addition, I used published whole cancer genome sequence data to find mutations in cancer patients that overlap potential RNA G4-forming sequences in 5' untranslated regions (UTRs) of mRNAs. Using RNAfold software, I assessed the effect of these mutations on the thermodynamic stability of RNA G4s in the context of full-length 5' UTRs. Of the 217 identified mutations, I found that 33 are predicted to destabilize and 21 predicted to stabilize RNA G4. I experimentally validated the effect of destabilizing mutations in the 5' UTRs of BCL2 and CXCL14 and one stabilizing mutation in the 5' UTR of TAOK2. These mutations resulted in an increase or a decrease in translation of these mRNAs, respectively. These findings suggest that mutations that modulate the G4 stability in the noncoding regions could act as cancer driver mutations, which present an opportunity for early cancer diagnosis using individual sequencing.

▼ Angiogenesis is known to be induced and maintained in tumors by the constant expression of the hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) and human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In fact, tumor recurrence, aggressive metastatic legions and patient mortality rates are known to be positively correlated with overexpression of these two proteins. The HIF-1α and VEGF promoters contain a polypurine/polypyrimidine (pPu/pPy) tract, which are known to play critical roles in their transcriptional regulation, and are structurally dynamic where they can undergo a conformational transition between B-DNA, single stranded DNA and atypical secondary DNA structures such as G-quadruplexes and i-motifs. We hypothesize that the i-motif and G-quadruplex structures can form within the pPu/pPy tracts of the HIF-1α and VEGF proximal promoters, which play important roles in the transcriptional regulation of these genes by acting as scaffolds for alternative transcription factor binding sites. The purpose of this dissertation was to elucidate the transcriptional regulation of the HIF-1α and VEGF genes through the atypical DNA structures that form within the pPu/pPy tracts of their proximal promoters. We investigated the interaction of the C-rich and guanine-rich (G-rich) strands of both of these tracts with transcription factors heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) K and nucleolin, respectively, both in vitro and in vivo and their potential role in the transcriptional control of HIF-1α and VEGF. In this dissertation, we demonstrate that both nucleolin and hnRNP K bind selectively to the G- and C-rich sequences, respectively, in the pPu/pPy tract of the HIF-1α and VEGF promoters. Specifically, the small interfering RNA-mediated silencing of either nucleolin or hnRNP K resulted in the down-regulation of basal VEGF gene, and the opposite effect was seen when the transcription factors were overexpressed, suggesting that they act as activators of VEGF transcription. Taken together, the identification of transcription factors that can recognize and bind to atypical DNA structures within pPu/pPy tracts will provide new insight into mechanisms of transcriptional regulation of the HIF-1α and VEGF gene.

▼ MYC is overexpressed in most types of tumors, but a means to selectively decrease its expression is yet to be found. Our recent findings on modulation of BCL2 gene expression through protein interactions with the BCL2 i-motif have provided a basis for further investigation of MYC gene control. It is proposed that the MYC i-motif could function by a similar molecular switch mechanism as in BCL2.Binding sites for heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K (hnRNP K) within the MYC promoter also exist in the i-motif-forming sequence. Circular dichroism and bromine footprinting confirmed that this DNA sequence is able to form an i-motif, and systematic mutation of the cytosine residues in this sequence has revealed a 5:5:5 loop configuration. Indeed, all loops of the i-motif, when folded into a 5:5:5 loop configuration, contain the hnRNP K consensus sequence (CCCT). Previous studies show that hnRNP K binds to this i-motif-forming sequence, but it was assumed to be single-stranded. Binding studies revealed that hnRNP K has more binding affinity to its consensus sequence in the i-motif compared to a mutant sequence where the i-motif cannot form. Further investigation of the MYC promoter revealed an additional two runs of cytosine seven bases downstream of the MYC i-motif. Biophysical studies showed that the additional two runs were not involved in i-motif formation, however recent studies describe their importance for transcriptional activation. We found that hnRNP K preferred the longer 5CT sequence compared to the i-motif forming 4CT sequence when using a competitive binding assay. Utilizing luciferase reporters containing either the 4CT or 5CT sequence validated that hnRNP K required both the i-motif and 5th CT element for maximum transcriptional activation. Competition binding studies and bromine footprinting showed that hnRNP K bound to the downstream 5th CT element and the central and lateral loops of the i-motif.Additionally, we found that co-overexpression of Sp1 and hnRNP K induced a 10-fold increase in luciferase activity in the 5CT reporter only. We hypothesize that Sp1 continuously primes the promoter to initiate transcription inducing more negative superhelicity and increasing the melting of duplex DNA. This increased melting grants hnRNP K’s three KH domains access to the i-motif loops and the 5Th CT element. Confirmation by ChIP analysis validated that Sp1 overexpression causes an increase in hnRNP K occupancy at the MYC promoter. These findings provide new insight into the mechanisms of MYC transcriptional control by the i-motif and G-quadruplex.Recently, our group has demonstrated that two small molecules IMC-48 and IMC-76 can interact with the i-motif and can be an effective means to modulate BCL2 expression. Based on these results with the BCL2 i-motif, we employed a similar strategy and screened and identified small drug-like molecules that interact with MYC i-motif, using a FRET high-throughput assay. We then further validated that IMC-16 stabilizes the MYC i-motif through the interactions with the loops… Advisors/Committee Members: Hurley, Laurence H (advisor), Sun, Daekyu (committeemember), Smith, Cathy (committeemember), Rimsza, Lisa (committeemember), Hurley, Laurence H.

▼ Construction projects are commonly acknowledged as successful when they are completed on time, within budget, and in accordance with specifications and to stakeholders’ satisfaction. Many of the projects exceed the original cost; get cancelled prior to completion, while others fail on terms of the delivered functionality. While large amounts of time and resources are dedicated to selecting and designing projects, it remains of paramount importance that projects be adequately managed in organizations if they are to achieve their performance objectives. The purpose of the study was to establish the influence of Project Management Information System on project performance in the construction industry; a case of Nairobi County, Kenya. The Objectives of this study were to determine the influence of: the system, quality information, the system user and the system use on performance of construction projects. Descriptive survey was used this enabled the researcher obtain the opinions of project managers in their natural setting and it is also good for management decision making. The target population of the study was 98 from which a sample size of 80 was determined from the Krejice and Morgan table (1970), purposive sampling was used to select the sample from the target population.
