Site-specific phosphorylation of amino acid residues serine, threonine, and tyrosine can have profound effects on protein structure, activity, stability, and interaction with other biomolecules. Phosphorylation sites can be affected in diverse ways in members of any species, one such way is through single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The availability of large numbers of experimentally identified phosphorylation sites, and of natural variation datasets in Arabidopsis thaliana prompted us to analyze the effect of non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNPs) onto phosphorylation sites. Results: From the analyses of 7,178 experimentally identified phosphorylation sites we found that: (i) Proteins with multiple phosphorylation sites occur more often than expected by chance. (ii) Phosphorylation hotspots show a preference to be located outside conserved domains. (iii) nsSNPs affected experimental phosphorylation sites as much as the corresponding non-phosphorylated amino acid residues. (iv) Losses of experimental phosphorylation sites by nsSNPs were identified in 86 A. thaliana proteins, among them receptor proteins were overrepresented. These results were confirmed by similar analyses of predicted phosphorylation sites in A. thaliana. In addition, predicted threonine phosphorylation sites showed a significant enrichment of nsSNPs towards asparagines and a significant depletion of the synonymous substitution. Proteins in which predicted phosphorylation sites were affected by nsSNPs (loss and gain), were determined to be mainly receptor proteins, stress response proteins and proteins involved in nucleotide and protein binding. Proteins involved in metabolism, catalytic activity and biosynthesis were less affected. Conclusions: We analyzed more than 7,100 experimentally identified phosphorylation sites in almost 4,300 protein-coding loci in silico, thus constituting the largest phosphoproteomics dataset for A. thaliana available to date. Our findings suggest a relatively high variability in the presence or absence of phosphorylation sites between different natural accessions in receptor and other proteins involved in signal transduction. Elucidating the effect of phosphorylation sites affected by nsSNPs on adaptive responses represents an exciting research goal for the future.

Nur allzu leicht geraten Rückblicke zu einer bloßen Einordnung eines Werkes in den Kontext seiner Zeit und beschränken sich damit auf seine schlichte Historisierung. Das lange Schaffen Robert King Mertons ließe sich ohne Probleme als bedeutender Teil der Geschichte der Soziologie in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts beschreiben. Doch Merton selbst hat schon früh betont, dass in der Wissenschaft ein grundlegender Unterschied zwischen erzählter (Wissenschafts-)Geschichte und systematischer Analyse eines klassischen theoretischen Werkes besteht. In diesem Sinne geht es darum, jenem Diktum Alfred N. Whiteheads gerecht zu werden, das Merton selbst seinem Hauptwerk Social Theory and Social Structure vorangestellt hat: „A science that hesitates to forget its founders is lost.“ Damit sollte keineswegs die fortbestehende Bedeutung einer Auseinandersetzung mit den klassischen Texten der Soziologie in Zweifel gezogen werden, aber eben nicht in der Form immer wiederkehrender Exegese, die zum gebetsmühlenhaften Wiederholen bereits bekannten Wissens oder zu dessen Banalisierung führen muss. Vielmehr ging es Merton darum, dass der theoretische Wissensfundus sowie die forschungspraktischen und methodischen Erfahrungen und Kenntnisse der Soziologie im Zentrum der Beschäftigung mit den Klassikern und Gründervätern der Disziplin stehen sollten.

T1 - Challenges and opportunities for integrating lake ecosystem modelling approaches JF - Aquatic ecology N2 - A large number and wide variety of lake ecosystem models have been developed and published during the past four decades. We identify two challenges for making further progress in this field. One such challenge is to avoid developing more models largely following the concept of others ('reinventing the wheel'). The other challenge is to avoid focusing on only one type of model, while ignoring new and diverse approaches that have become available ('having tunnel vision'). In this paper, we aim at improving the awareness of existing models and knowledge of concurrent approaches in lake ecosystem modelling, without covering all possible model tools and avenues. First, we present a broad variety of modelling approaches. To illustrate these approaches, we give brief descriptions of rather arbitrarily selected sets of specific models. We deal with static models (steady state and regression models), complex dynamic models (CAEDYM, CE-QUAL-W2, Delft 3D-ECO, LakeMab, LakeWeb, MyLake, PCLake, PROTECH, SALMO), structurally dynamic models and minimal dynamic models. We also discuss a group of approaches that could all be classified as individual based: super-individual models (Piscator, Charisma), physiologically structured models, stage-structured models and traitbased models. We briefly mention genetic algorithms, neural networks, Kalman filters and fuzzy logic. Thereafter, we zoom in, as an in-depth example, on the multi-decadal development and application of the lake ecosystem model PCLake and related models (PCLake Metamodel, Lake Shira Model, IPH-TRIM3D-PCLake). In the discussion, we argue that while the historical development of each approach and model is understandable given its 'leading principle', there are many opportunities for combining approaches. We take the point of view that a single 'right' approach does not exist and should not be strived for. Instead, multiple modelling approaches, applied concurrently to a given problem, can help develop an integrative view on the functioning of lake ecosystems. We end with a set of specific recommendations that may be of help in the further development of lake ecosystem models.

Die These lautet, dass beide Konzepte konflikttheoretisch interpretiert werden müssen, damit sie ihr volles analytisches und erklärendes Potenzial zur Analyse zentraler sozialer Konflikte entfalten können. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass beide Konzepte in ihrem Bedeutungsgehalt konvergieren, ein konflikttheoretisch inspiriertes Verständnis aber unterschiedliche theoretische Strategien erfordert. Während die Opportunitätsstrukturen jenseits des Merton’schen Verständnisses reinterpretiert werden müssen, um verstehen zu können, dass das Handeln sozialer Akteure die Optionen anderer beschränken kann, ist für die Lebenschancen ein Zurück zu Max Webers ursprünglicher Idee angezeigt, um der Bedeutung sozialer Schließung als sozialen Mechanismus einer Auseinandersetzung um knappe Güter nachgehen zu können N2 - The article discusses the development, meaning and theoretical context of both Robert Merton’s concept of “opportunity structure” and the concept of “life-chances” that he took up from Max Weber. In order to analyze crucial social conflicts, I argue that both concepts should follow along the lines of conflict theory. While they converge in terms of meaning, we need different theoretical strategies to make their analytical and explanatory power explicit. First, a reinterpretation of the concept of opportunity structure shows that social actors might reduce others’ access to options while realizing their own aims; second, life-chances should be put again in a Weberian perspective for two reasons. On the one hand Weber already conceptualizes them in the context of social struggles, on the other hand he shows that the mechanism of social closure helps to understand how people exclude others from life-chances by monopolizing resources. N2 - Cet article discute la genèse, la signification et le contexte théorique du concept mertonien de structure d’opportunités et du concept wébérien de chances de vie (Lebenschancen) dont il s’inspire. La thèse défendue ici est que ces deux concepts doivent être interprétés à la lumière de la théorie du conflit pour révéler tout leur potentiel analytique et explicatif pour l’analyse de conflits sociaux majeurs. Nous partons de l’idée que ces deux concepts, qui sont la plupart du temps utilisés de manière intuitive, ont une signification convergente et nécessitent une compréhension inspirée par la théorie du conflit mais différentes stratégies théoriques. Tandis qu’il faut réinterpréter les structures d’opportunités au-delà de leur acception mertonienne pour comprendre que l’action des acteurs sociaux peut limiter les options d’autres acteurs, il convient pour le concept de chances de vie de revenir à l’idée originelle de Max Weber pour mettre en évidence la signification de la clôture sociale comme un mécanisme social de lutte pour des biens rares.
