Strigolactones are carotenoid-derived plant hormones that were first discovered in root exudates as germination stimulants for weeds. They have two main functions: regulating shoot branching inhibition and promoting symbiotic interactions through root exudates. There are two proposed models for how strigolactones regulate shoot branching - the canalization model, where they repress accumulation of the auxin efflux carrier PIN1 in plasma membranes, making it harder for buds to connect to the main stem and branch out. The other is the direct action model, where strigolactones and cytokinins directly affect branching in buds by regulating the transcription factor BRANCHED1. There are still outstanding questions about

Steroid hormones like estrogen bind to nuclear receptors to influence gene expression, while tropic hormones activate cell membrane receptors coupled to messengers like cAMP or IP3/DAG. These messengers then activate intracellular kinase pathways to induce cellular responses.
JAK STAT SIGNALLING PATHWAY
The JAK-STAT signaling pathway transmits signals from extracellular chemical signals to the cell nucleus, which leads to DNA transcription and cellular activity. It consists of receptors, Janus kinases (JAKs), and signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs). When ligands bind to receptors, JAKs phosphorylate themselves and STATs, causing STAT dimers to enter the nucleus and promote transcription. Disrupted JAK-STAT signaling can cause immune deficiency and cancer. Drugs targeting JAK-STAT are used to reduce immune response and treat disorders like cancer and rheumatoid arthritis.
Jak stat
The JAK-STAT signaling pathway transmits signals from extracellular chemicals to the nucleus, activating transcription of target genes. It consists of a cell surface receptor, associated Janus kinases (JAKs), and signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs). When a ligand binds the receptor, JAKs phosphorylate STATs, which form dimers and translocate to the nucleus to regulate gene expression. The Ras/MAPK pathway similarly relays signals from cell surface receptors via Ras, Raf, MEK, and MAPK proteins to influence transcription. Both pathways are tightly regulated and important for processes like cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis, with dysregulation contributing to diseases.
Signaling Pathways

Receptors
Receptors are proteins that bind to specific molecules called ligands. There are two main types of receptors: intracellular receptors located inside the cell, and cell surface receptors located in the plasma membrane. Receptor function involves binding of a ligand, which causes a conformational change in the receptor and transmission of a signal. Some important receptor types include ligand-gated ion channels, G protein-coupled receptors, and enzyme-linked receptors such as receptor tyrosine kinases. Mutations in receptor tyrosine kinases can cause developmental disorders and cancers due to effects on cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis.

regulation of Transcription in prokaryotes can be done under operons and cascade of gene expression ; also we can divide it into negative and positive responses which the lac operon is a good example of it.
Introduction to cell signalling
Cell signaling involves chemical communication between cells through signaling molecules that bind to receptors on other cells. When a signaling molecule binds its receptor, it triggers a change within the cell through a process called signal transduction. This allows cells to respond to their environment and coordinate their actions. There are several types of cell signaling including paracrine signaling between nearby cells, endocrine signaling through hormones carried in the bloodstream, and autocrine signaling where cells produce factors to stimulate themselves. Cell surface receptors that span the membrane play an important role in signal transduction.
Final nuclear receptor
Nuclear receptors are a family of transcription factors that bind small molecule ligands and regulate gene expression. They contain several domains including a DNA binding domain and ligand binding domain. Upon ligand binding, nuclear receptors undergo a conformational change and recruit coactivators or corepressors to activate or repress transcription. They are classified into three classes based on their localization and dimerization properties. Class II nuclear receptors like PPARs form heterodimers with RXR, bind lipids, and regulate metabolism. PPARγ agonists like glitazones bind PPARγ, activate gene transcription, and have antidiabetic effects like sensitizing tissues to insulin.

Types of receptors
Types of Receptors
Receptors are protein molecules in the target cell or on its surface that bind ligands. There are two types of receptors: internal receptors and cell-surface receptors.
Cell signalling
Cell signaling pathways allow communication between cells through the use of intracellular and extracellular messengers. They are broadly classified as pathways initiated by lipid-soluble messengers, like steroid hormones, or water-soluble messengers, like most hormones and neurotransmitters. The pathways involve messenger binding to receptors which then activates intracellular proteins, resulting in changes in gene transcription, ion channels, or enzymatic activity. This leads to cellular responses like changes in metabolism, secretory activity, or proliferation. In orthodontics, these pathways govern processes like osteoblast differentiation during bone formation and osteoclast recruitment during bone resorption in response to mechanical forces.

In eukaryotes, gene expression is controlled through chromatin structure, pre-transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation involving transcription factors and RNA processing, and pre-translational and post-translational regulation involving translation initiation, protein processing and degradation.
Ch17 217 228
This document discusses the regulation of gene expression through transcriptional control mechanisms. It begins by explaining that gene expression is regulated by extracellular signals through modification of transcription factors, and that this transcriptional regulation plays important roles in nervous system functioning. It then describes the various steps in the process of gene expression, with a focus on transcriptional regulation. Specifically, it explains that transcription initiation is a key control point, and involves positioning RNA polymerase at start sites and controlling initiation rates. Core promoters set the start sites and direction of transcription for RNA polymerases. Transcription factors are also described as key regulators that recruit the basal transcription complex and achieve significant transcription levels.
Gene expression
Gene expression in eukaryotes is regulated through various mechanisms including histone modification, DNA methylation, enhancers, and combinations of regulatory proteins. Gene regulation occurs through positive and negative elements that increase or decrease expression. Key examples are the lac and tryptophan operons in prokaryotes, which are regulated by repressors and inducers to control metabolic pathways in response to environmental conditions.
Tyrosine kinase linked receptors
This document discusses receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and their role in signal transduction. It notes that RTKs are membrane proteins that transmit signals from outside the cell into the cell. When a ligand binds to an RTK, it causes the receptor to dimerize and phosphorylate itself. This activated RTK then transmits the signal by activating downstream proteins like Ras via GRB2 and Sos. Ras further transduces the signal to serine/threonine kinases and transcription factors, ultimately leading to responses in the cell like growth, differentiation, and metabolism. There are 58 known RTK subfamilies involved in various cellular processes.

As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptx
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptx
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

Strigolactones
- 1. Strigolactones and its functions in regulation of Shoot Branching Abhishesh Bajracharya Anita Shrestha
- 3. Introduction - Strigolactones are carotenoid-derived hormones - First discovered in root exudates as potent germination stimulants (for a weed) - Main functions: - Signalling component for plant development (branching inhibition) - Root exudates to promote symbiotic interaction - Structure includes a tricyclic lactone linked to a hydroxymethyl butenolide
- 4. Signaling Mechanism ● Based upon hormone-activated proteolysis ● In presence of SL, TCP-domain transcription factor BRANCHED1 (BR1) is transcribed. ● Hydrolysis of SL causes conformational changes of receptor protein.
- 5. Strigolactone Signaling in Regulation of Shoot Branching - No consensus after the primary signalling mechanism - Two models: - SLs regulate protein levels of auxin efflux carrier (PIN) in plasma membrane (Canalization model) - SLs regulate transcription of TCP domain tf BRANCHED1 (BRC1) (Direct action model)
- 6. Canalization - Basis: Buds are also auxin sources; Buds that form the strongest canalized link to main stem tend to be the buds that grow out - SLs repress PIN1 accumulation in plasma membrane - Makes it harder for buds to canalize into the main stem which results in reduced branching - Controversial: Since it depends upon relative levels of auxin transport (from buds and main stem); hard to interpret data.
- 7. Direct Action Model ● SL and cytokinin affect branching directly in the bud. ● Auxin inhibits outgrowth of dormant buds indirectly. ● SL might be second messenger of auxin ● BRC1 might be direct target of SL signaling
- 8. Outstanding questions - Functions of SMXL proteins - Exact understanding of the receptor (D14) and repressor (SMXL) interactions - How does SL regulate branching?
Editor's Notes
- A,B,C = tricyclic lactone; D=hydroxymethyl butenolide
- -F-box protein component of a Skp 1-Cullin-F-box (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex targets repressor protein (D53/SMXL) for polyubiquitination and degradation by the 26S proteasome. -receptor is destabilized -TPR is co-repressor
- Auxin transport down the primary shoot dampens the flow of auxin from buds. Further reading: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6433298/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4528729/
- -SL and CK are primarily synthesized in root and transported to shoot through xylem. -Cytokinin inhibit the expression of TF (BRC1) that regulate bud outgrowth; whereas, SL promote BRC1 -Both SL and CK synthesis are regulated by auxin, so they were thought to be plausible second messenger of auxin -unless given a strigolactone supply by grafting, strigolactone-deficient mutants respond very poorly to auxin added to the stump after decapitation indicating that auxin requires strigolactones to elicit its inhibitory effect -the constitutively low levels of BRC1 expression in SL-deficient mutants, and the constitutively high levels in smxl678, suggest that BRC1 is indeed a transcriptional target of SL signalling; but, in monocots, there is very little evidence that SLs act via transcriptional regulation of BRC1 family members (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5450845/)
