Replication
Risk Factors:The Cauliflower mosaic virus promoter (CaMV 35S) is used in most transgenic crops to activate foreign genes which have been artificially inserted into the host plant. It is inserted into transgenic plants in a form which is different from that found when it is present in its natural Brassica plant hosts. This enables it to operate in a wide range of host-organism environments which would otherwise not be possible.

Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

A brief information about the SCOP protein database used in bioinformatics.
The Structural Classification of Proteins (SCOP) database is a comprehensive and authoritative resource for the structural and evolutionary relationships of proteins. It provides a detailed and curated classification of protein structures, grouping them into families, superfamilies, and folds based on their structural and sequence similarities.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Professional air quality monitoring systems provide immediate, on-site data for analysis, compliance, and decision-making.

Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
2. Plant Viruses:
• Plant viruses are considered as efficient gene transfer agents as they infect
the intact plants and amplify the transferred genes through viral genome
replication
• They are non integrative vectors Eg, Pepper mint mottle virus, Leaf curl
virus
Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (Caulimovirus)
• Cauliflower mosaic virus (CamV) belongs to the group caulimovirus, can be
used as potential candidate to deliver foreign gene into the plant.
• It is perhaps the best studied viruses among plant virus, which infects several
members belonging to Cruciferae family.
• As an infective agent, can cause disease in wide range of commercially
important cultivated crops.
• Cauliflower mosaic DNA has been subjected to a wide range of
manipulation.
• This was the only and first virus to be manipulated and used as a favourable
choice for genetic engineering work.
3. CaulimoViruses
• Caulimoviruses contain circular ds DNA and are spherical in shape
• This group includes 15 viruses of which CaMV is the most important for
gene transfer
• The other caulimoviruses includes carnation etched virus, dahlia mosaic
virus mirabilis mosaic virus and strawberry vein banding virus
• CaMV is a plant virus that infects mostly brassicaceae family( cauliflower
and turnips) and Solanaceae species
• CaMV is transmitted in a non circulatory manner by aphid species Mysus
• It is a icosahedron structure with a diameter of 52nm built from 420 cap
protein subunits
4. Genome of CaMV
• It has circular ds DNA containing 8kbp
• The promoter 35S RNA is a very strong constitutive promoter responsible
for the transcription of the whole CaMV genome.
• It is well known for its use in plant transformation.
• It causes high levels of gene expression in dicot plants
• The 35S RNA is particularly complex, containing a highly structured 600
nucleotide long leader sequence .
• This leader is followed by seven tightly arranged, longer ORFs that encode
all the viral proteins.
• The mechanism of expression of these proteins is unique, in that the ORF VI
protein (encoded by the 19S RNA) controls translation reinitiation of major
open reading frames on the polycistronic 35S RNA, a process that normally
only happens on bacterial mRNAs
5. Criteria needed for vector:
• The virus must be capable of spreading from cell to cell through
plasmodesmata
• The viral genome should be able to replicate in the absence of viral coat
protein and spreads from cell to cell
•Elicit little or no disease symptoms
• Should have broad range of host
6. CamV Vector:
• Cauliflower mosaic virus can be used as a potential vector due to the
infective nature of its genetic material.
• This could be proved by applying viruses on the leaf rubbed with abrasive
material. The CamV cannot accommodate foreign DNA, if the size exceeds
its normal size.
• The inserted DNA may destabilize infectious nature of the virus.
• Other constraints are the packaging of genome and limitation of the insertion
of foreign DNA.
• Despite the marginal constraints, CamV genome can be packed in
nucleosome and is able to undergo transcription by plant RNA polymerase
II.
• For effective transmission of CaMV the foreign DNA must be encapsulated
in viral protein and the inserted gene should not interfere with native
assembly of virus
• CaMV does not contain any non coding region wherein foreign DNA can be
inserted
7. • The genome of CamV consists of six major and two minor open reading
frames (ORF), in tightly packed arrangements.
• The two ORF regions, one (ORFII) codes for insect transmission factor and
other (ORF VII) with unknown functions can be replaced with gene of
interest.
• So the gene of interest can be replaced in the place of these two genes
• Use of CaMV as a vector pertains to the bacterial dhfr (dihydroxy folate
reductase) gene inserted in the place of gene II and successfully expressed in
plants
• This dhfr gene is needed for providing resistance to methotrexate( inhibitor
of dhfr and extremely toxic to plants)
Limitation of CaMV:
• Limited capacity for insertion
• Infective capacity is lost if few hundreds of nucleotides are introduced
• Because of its exceeding natural genome size they are not effectively
suitable for gene transfer
