DNA Damage and DNA repair mechanism in Space
DNA repair systems in Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
DNA Replication: It is a unique and complex process that takes place in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Do you know how many chromosomes you have? How does the number of chromosomes in a particular organism remain constant? It is because of the DNA Replication process that takes place during the S-phase (synthetic phase) of the cell division (mitosis or meiosis) in each and every cell.
Replication occurs in three major steps: the opening of the double helix and separation of the DNA strands, the priming of the template strand, and the assembly of the new DNA segment. During separation, the two strands of the DNA double helix uncoil at a specific location called the origin. Several enzymes and proteins then work together to prepare, or prime, the strands for duplication. Finally, a special enzyme called DNA polymerase organizes the assembly of the new DNA strands.
DNA Replication is a very unique and complex multistep biological process of producing two identical replicas from one original DNA molecule. It occurs in all living organisms (both prokaryotes and eukaryotes) because it forms an essential part of biological inheritance. It requires a number of enzymes, protein factors, and metal ions.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
In his public lecture, Christian Timmerer provides insights into the fascinating history of video streaming, starting from its humble beginnings before YouTube to the groundbreaking technologies that now dominate platforms like Netflix and ORF ON.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

– Repair of thymine-thymine dimers
– Apurinic/apyrimidinic repair
– Removal of uracil
• Direct repair
– Dealkylation of G by G alkyltransferases
• Mismatch repair
• Recombination repair
21. Two types of excision repair are
base excision repair and
nucleotide excision repair
22. Excision repair
• Incision: Enz recognise type of damage. Enz
involved depends on type of damage.
– DNA N-glycosylases--deaminated base, alkylated
or oxidised bases, bases with opened rings
– Depurination--Apurinic-apyrimidinic (AP)
endonuclease;
• Excision of damaged base
• Re-synthesis of new DNA
• Nick is joined by ligase

Mutations can occur in the:
• Coding regions or exons
• Intron/exon (splicing)
junction/site
• Regulatory region
31. Class, Group & Type of Mutations
Mutation Group Type
Substitution Synonymous Silent
Non-synonymous Missense
Nonsense
Splice site
Promoter
Deletion Multiple of 3
Not multiple of 3 Frameshift
Large deletion Partial/whole
gene deletion
32. Class, Group & Types of Mutations:
continued
Insertion Multiple of 3
Not multiple of 3 Frameshift
Large insertion Partial/whole gene
duplication
Expansion of Dynamic mutation
trinucleotide repeats
33. missense mutation:non-conservative substitution
a mutation results a change in an amino acid
where the new amino acids has a different property than the
old amino acid. The protein with the new primary structure
may have reduced or no activity. Or qualitative changes with
different characteristics but same biological activity
34. nonsense mutations:
a mutation results in a new stop translation condon
formed before the naturally occuring one.
Translation is stopped prematurely and a shortened
protein with no biological activity is made. mRNA
transcripts degraded by nonsense mediated decay
35. frameshift mutation:
a deletion or insertion of one base results in a change in the
translational reading frame resulting in premature stop codon
downstream. mRNA maybe degraded by nonsense mediated
decay or a truncated protein is produced.
36. Summary
• DNA damage can be increased by
biological, chemicals and physical factors.
• Lesions include loss of base, wrong base,
altered base, thymine dimers, strand
breaks or deletion-insertion.
• Damage is repaired by repair enzymes
• Mechanism of repair include base excision
repair and nucleotide excision repair
