M. T1 - Anti-hemagglutinin antibody derived lead peptides for inhibitors of influenza virus binding T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - Antibodies against spike proteins of influenza are used as a tool for characterization of viruses and therapeutic approaches. However, development, production and quality control of antibodies is expensive and time consuming. To circumvent these difficulties, three peptides were derived from complementarity determining regions of an antibody heavy chain against influenza A spike glycoprotein. Their binding properties were studied experimentally, and by molecular dynamics simulations. Two peptide candidates showed binding to influenza A/Aichi/2/68 H3N2. One of them, termed PeB, with the highest affinity prevented binding to and infection of target cells in the micromolar region without any cytotoxic effect. PeB matches best the conserved receptor binding site of hemagglutinin. PeB bound also to other medical relevant influenza strains, such as human-pathogenic A/California/7/2009 H1N1, and avian-pathogenic A/MuteSwan/Rostock/R901/2006 H7N1. Strategies to improve the affinity and to adapt specificity are discussed and exemplified by a double amino acid substituted peptide, obtained by substitutional analysis. The peptides and their derivatives are of great potential for drug development as well as biosensing.

The ability to adapt movement to maintain performance under such perturbations appears to be trainable through exposure to task variability, which encourages movement variability. The aim of the present study was to investigate the extent to which various wearable resistance loading magnitudes alter coordination and induce movement variability during running. To investigate this, 14 participants (three female and 11 male) performed 10 sub-maximal velocity shuttle runs with either no weight, 1%, 3%, or 5% of body weight attached to the lower limbs. Sagittal plane lower limb joint kinematics from one complete stride cycle in each run were assessed using functional data analysis techniques, both across the participant group and within-individuals. At the group-level, decreases in ankle plantarflexion following toe-off were evident in the 3% and 5% conditions, while increased knee flexion occurred during weight acceptance in the 5% condition compared with unloaded running. At the individual-level, between-run joint angle profiles varied, with six participants exhibiting increased joint angle variability in one or more loading conditions compared with unloaded running. Loading of 5% decreased between-run ankle joint variability among two individuals, likely in accordance with the need to manage increased system load or the novelty of the task. In terms of joint coordination, the most considerable alterations to coordination occurred in the 5% loading condition at the hip-knee joint pair, however, only a minority of participants exhibited this tendency. Coaches should prescribe wearable resistance individually to perturb preferred coordination patterns and encourage movement variability without loading to the extent that movement options become limited.

Um Qualitätsmängel zu minimieren und Absatzchancen von Nutzpflanzen zu steigern sind umfangreiche Analysen hinsichtlich ihrer stofflichen Zusammensetzung notwendig. Chromatographische Techniken gekoppelt an ein Massenspektrometer und die Kernspinresonanzspektroskopie wurden dafür bislang verwendet. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde ein Gaschromatograph an ein Flugzeitmassenspektrometer (GC-TOF-MS) gekoppelt, um physiologische Prozesse bzw. Eigenschaften (die Schwarzfleckigkeit, die Chipsbräunung, das Physiologische Alter und die Keimhemmung) von Nutzpflanzen aufzuklären. Als Pflanzenmodell wurde dafür die Kartoffelknolle verwendet. Dazu wurden neue analytische Lösungsansätze entwickelt, die eine zielgerichtete Auswertung einer Vielzahl von Proben, die Etablierung einer umfangreichen Referenzspektrenbibliothek und die sichere Archivierung aller experimentellen Daten umfassen. Das Verfahren der Probenvorbereitung wurde soweit modifiziert, dass gering konzentrierte Substanzen mittels GC-TOF-MS analysiert werden können. Dadurch wurde das durch die Probenvorbereitung limitierte Substanzspektrum erweitert. Anhand dieser Lösungsansätze wurden physiologisch relevante Stoffwechselprodukte identifiziert, welche indikativ (klassifizierend) bzw. prädiktiv (vorhersagend) für die physiologischen Prozesse sind. Für die Schwarzfleckigkeitsneigung und die Chipseignung wurde jeweils ein biochemisches Modell zur Vorhersage dieser Prozesse aufgestellt und auf eine Züchtungspopulation übertragen. Ferner wurden für die Schwarzfleckigkeit Stoffwechselprodukte des Respirationsstoffwechsels identifiziert sowie Aminosäuren, Glycerollipide und Phenylpropanoide für das Physiologische Alter als relevant erachtet. Das physiologische Altern konnte durch die Anwendung höherer Temperaturen beschleunigt werden. Durch Anwendung von Keimhemmern (Kümmelöl, Chlorpropham) wurde eine Verzögerung des physiologischen Alterns beobachtet. Die Applikation von Kümmelöl erwies sich dabei als besonders vorteilhaft. Kümmelöl behandelte Knollen wiesen im Vergleich zu unbehandelten Knollen nur Veränderungen im Aminosäure-, Zucker- und Sekundärstoffwechsel auf. Chlorpropham behandelte Knollen wiesen einen ähnlichen Stoffwechsel wie die unbehandelten Knollen auf. Für die bislang noch nicht identifizierten Stoffwechselprodukte wurden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit das Verfahren der „gezielten An-/Abreicherung“, der „gepaarten NMR/GC-TOF-MS Analyse“ und das „Entscheidungsbaumverfahren“ entwickelt. Diese ermöglichen eine Klassifizierung von GC-MS Signalen im Hinblick auf ihre chemische Funktionalität. Das Verfahren der gekoppelten NMR/GC-TOF-MS Analyse erwies sich dabei als besonders erfolgversprechend, da es eine Aufklärung bislang unbekannter gaschromatographischer Signale ermöglicht. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden neue Stoffwechselprodukte in der Kartoffelknolle identifiziert, wodurch ein wertvoller Beitrag zur Analytik der Metabolomik geleistet wurde. N2 - Several factors influence the quality of crops. These include particular storage conditions and cultivar properties. Minimization of quality defects requires the employment of comprehensive metabolic analysis to enhance the marketing potential of crops. From this point of view chromatographic techniques coupled either with a mass spectrometer or the combination with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy have been successfully applied to solve the main tasks. In the present work, a gas chromatograph was coupled to a time of flight mass spectrometer (GC-TOF-MS) to analyze physiological processes and attitudes of crops like black spot bruising, chips tanning, physiological aging, and sprouting inhibition. For this purpose the potato tuber was employed as a model plant. Therefore, new analytical approaches were developed comprising the targeted analysis of a multitude of samples, the establishment of a comprehensive mass spectral reference library and the built up of a secure archival storage system. Furthermore, the sample preparation protocol was modified to analyze trace components with the help of GC-TOF-MS as well. This helped to extend the discovery of more endogenous metabolites. These analytical approaches were required to identify physiological relevant indicative and predictive metabolites. Consequently, a biochemical model was build up for the process of black spot bruising and chips tanning respectively. These models could be applied to an unknown breeding progeny. Metabolites of the respiratory chain were identified as relevant for the process of black spot bruising whereas amino acids, lipids and phenylpropanoids were of high importance for the process of physiological aging.  The process of physiological aging could be accelerated while applying higher temperatures and could be delayed while applying sprouting inhibitors, like caraway oil and chlorpropham. Compared to chlorpropham, caraway oil exhibited more advantages with respect to storage attitudes although it caused significant changes in the amino acid, sugar and secondary metabolism during a common storage period. However, the chlorpropham treated tubers showed a similar phenotype in comparison to the control tubers. In addition, several methods were developed with respect to the classification of yet unidentified signals. These cover the decision tree process, the targeted enrichment and depletion of specific metabolites with the help of solid phase extraction and the paired NMR and GC-MS analyses. The paired NMR and GC-MS analysis appears very promising because it allows for the identification of unknown GC-MS signals. Thus, this work makes a valuable contribution to the analytics of the metabolome, as new metabolites could be identified which are of physiological relevance for the potato tuber.

T1 - MALDI-TOF-MS-based identification of monoclonal murine Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies within one hour JF - Antibodies N2 - During the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, many virus-binding monoclonal antibodies have been developed for clinical and diagnostic purposes. This underlines the importance of antibodies as universal bioanalytical reagents. However, little attention is given to the reproducibility crisis that scientific studies are still facing to date. In a recent study, not even half of all research antibodies mentioned in publications could be identified at all. This should spark more efforts in the search for practical solutions for the traceability of antibodies. For this purpose, we used 35 monoclonal antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 to demonstrate how sequence-independent antibody identification can be achieved by simple means applied to the protein. First, we examined the intact and light chain masses of the antibodies relative to the reference material NIST-mAb 8671. Already half of the antibodies could be identified based solely on these two parameters. In addition, we developed two complementary peptide mass fingerprinting methods with MALDI-TOF-MS that can be performed in 60 min and had a combined sequence coverage of over 80%. One method is based on the partial acidic hydrolysis of the protein by 5 mM of sulfuric acid at 99 degrees C. Furthermore, we established a fast way for a tryptic digest without an alkylation step. We were able to show that the distinction of clones is possible simply by a brief visual comparison of the mass spectra. In this work, two clones originating from the same immunization gave the same fingerprints. Later, a hybridoma sequencing confirmed the sequence identity of these sister clones. In order to automate the spectral comparison for larger libraries of antibodies, we developed the online software ABID 2.0. This open-source software determines the number of matching peptides in the fingerprint spectra. We propose that publications and other documents critically relying on monoclonal antibodies with unknown amino acid sequences should include at least one antibody fingerprint. By fingerprinting an antibody in question, its identity can be confirmed by comparison with a library spectrum at any time and context.

Without the contextual stability of a permanent organizational position, the question “who one is” will be more difficult to answer. At the same time, a stable occupational identity might provide an even more important orientation to one’s career attitudes and goals in atypical employment situations. So, although atypical employment might pose different challenges on identity, identity can still be a valid concept to assist the understanding of behaviour, attitudes, and well-being in these situations. Our analysis does not attempt to “reinvent” the concept of identity, but will elaborate how existing conceptualizations of identity as being a multiple (albeit perceived as singular), fluid (albeit perceived as stable), and actively forged (as well as passively influenced) construct that can be adapted to understand the effects of atypical employment contexts. Furthermore, we suggest three specific ways to understand the longitudinal dynamics of the interplay between atypical employment and identity over time: passive incremental, active incremental, and transformative change. We conclude with key learning points and outline a few practical recommendations for more research into identity as an explanatory mechanism for the effects of atypical employment situations.

Symbolic regression is a powerful and general method suitable for data-driven identification of mathematical expressions. In particular, the structure and parameters of those expressions are identified simultaneously. We consider two main variants of symbolic regression: sparse regression-based and genetic programming-based symbolic regression. Both are applied to identification, prediction and control of dynamical systems. We introduce a new methodology for the data-driven identification of nonlinear dynamics for systems undergoing abrupt changes. Building on a sparse regression algorithm derived earlier, the model after the change is defined as a minimum update with respect to a reference model of the system identified prior to the change. The technique is successfully exemplified on the chaotic Lorenz system and the van der Pol oscillator. Issues such as computational complexity, robustness against noise and requirements with respect to data volume are investigated. We show how symbolic regression can be used for time series prediction. Again, issues such as robustness against noise and convergence rate are investigated us- ing the harmonic oscillator as a toy problem. In combination with embedding, we demonstrate the prediction of a propagating front in coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators. Additionally, we show how we can enhance numerical weather predictions to commercially forecast power production of green energy power plants. We employ symbolic regression for synchronization control in coupled van der Pol oscillators. Different coupling topologies are investigated. We address issues such as plausibility and stability of the control laws found. The toolkit has been made open source and is used in turbulence control applications. Genetic programming based symbolic regression is very versatile and can be adapted to many optimization problems. The heuristic-based algorithm allows for cost efficient optimization of complex tasks. We emphasize the ability of symbolic regression to yield white-box models. In contrast to black-box models, such models are accessible and interpretable which allows the usage of established tool chains. N2 - In der vorliegenden Arbeit nutzen wird symbolische Regression zur automatisierten Modellierung dynamischer Systeme. Symbolische Regression ist eine mächtige und vielseitige Methode, welche zur Daten-getriebenen Identifikation von mathematischen Ausdrücken geeignet ist. Insbesondere werden dabei Struktur und Parameter des gesuchten Ausdrucks parallel ermittelt. Zwei Varianten der symbolischen Regression werden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit in Betracht gezogen: sparse regression und symbolischer Regression basierend auf genetischem Programmieren. Beide Verfahren werden für die Identifikation, Vor- hersage und Regelung dynamischer Systeme angewandt. Wir führen eine neue Methodik zur Identifikation von dynamischen Systemen, welche eine spontane Änderung erfahren, ein. Die Änderung eines Modells, wel- ches mit Hilfe von sparse regression gefunden wurde, ist definiert als sparsamste Aktualisierung im Hinblick auf das Modell vor der Änderung. Diese Technik ist beispielhaft am chaotischem Lorenz System und dem van der Pol Oszillator demonstriert. Aspekte wie numerische Komplexität, Robustheit gegenüber Rauschen sowie Anforderungen an Anzahl von Datenpunkten werden untersucht. Wir zeigen wie symbolische Regression zur Zeitreihenvorhersage genutzt wer- den kann. Wir nutzen dem harmonischen Oszillator als Beispielmodell, um Aspekte wie Robustheit gegenüber Rauschen sowie die Konvergenzrate der Optimierung zu untersuchen. Mit Hilfe von Einbettungsverfahren demonstrieren wir die Vorhersage propagierenden Fronten in gekoppelten FitzHugh-Nagumo Oszillatoren. Außerdem betrachten wir die kommerzielle Stromproduktionsvorhersage von erneuerbaren Energien. Wir zeigen wie man diesbezügliche die numerische Wettervorhersage mittels symbolischer Regression verfeinern und zur Stromproduktionsvorhersage anwenden kann. Wir setzen symbolische Regression zur Regelung von Synchronisation in gekoppelten van der Pol Oszillatoren ein. Dabei untersuchen wir verschiedene Topologien und Kopplungen. Wir betrachten Aspekte wie Plausibilität und Stabilität der gefundenen Regelungsgesetze. Die Software wurde veröffentlicht und wird u. a. zur Turbulenzregelung eingesetzt. Symbolische Regression basierend auf genetischem Programmieren ist sehr vielseitig und kann auf viele Optimierungsprobleme übertragen werden. Der auf Heuristik basierenden Algorithmus erlaubt die effiziente Optimierung von komplexen Fragestellungen. Wir betonen die Fähigkeit von symbolischer Regression, sogenannte white-box Modelle zu produzieren. Diese Modelle sind – im Gegensatz zu black-box Modellen – zugänglich und interpretierbar. Dies ermöglicht das weitere Nutzen von etablierten Methodiken.

This species is an established model system in the study of the genetics, evolution, and ecology of heterostylous floral polymorphisms. Despite the long history of research focused on this and related species, the continued development of this system has been restricted due the absence of genomic and transcriptomic resources. Results We present here a de novo draft genome assembly of P. veris covering 301.8 Mb, or approximately 63% of the estimated 479.22 Mb genome, with an N50 contig size of 9.5 Kb, an N50 scaffold size of 164 Kb, and containing an estimated 19,507 genes. The results of a RADseq bulk segregant analysis allow for the confident identification of four genome scaffolds that are linked to the P. veris S-locus. RNAseq data from both P. veris and the closely related species P. vulgaris allow for the characterization of 113 candidate heterostyly genes that show significant floral morph-specific differential expression. One candidate gene of particular interest is a duplicated GLOBOSA homolog that may be unique to Primula (PveGLO2), and is completely silenced in L-morph flowers. Conclusions The P. veris genome represents the first genome assembled from a heterostylous species, and thus provides an immensely important resource for future studies focused on the evolution and genetic dissection of heterostyly. As the first genome assembled from the Primulaceae, the P. veris genome will also facilitate the expanded application of phylogenomic methods in this diverse family and the eudicots as a whole.
