Role of SSD1 in Phenotypic Variation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains Lacking DEG1-Dependent Pseudouridylation
(2021-08-15)
Yeast phenotypes associated with the lack of wobble uridine (U34) modifications in tRNA were shown to be modulated by an allelic variation of SSD1, a gene encoding an mRNA-binding protein. We demonstrate that phenotypes caused by the loss of Deg1-dependent tRNA pseudouridylation are similarly affected by SSD1 allelic status. Temperature sensitivity and protein aggregation are elevated in deg1 mutants and further increased in the presence of the ssd1-d allele, which encodes a truncated form of Ssd1. In addition, ...

1,1′-Ferrocenylene-Bridged Bis(N-Heterocyclic Olefin) Derivatives
(2021-10-18)
The 1,1′-ferrocenylene (fc)-bridged bis(N-heterocyclic olefin) compounds (IMes=CH)₂fc (1, IMes=1,3-dimesitylimidazolin-2-ylidene) and (IPr=CH)₂fc (2, IPr=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene) were synthesised from (ICH₂)₂fc (3) and the respective N-heterocyclic carbene IMes or IPr. Ligand substitution reactions of 1 and 2 with [BH₃(THF)] afforded the complexes [1(BH₃)₂] and [2(BH₃)₂] as mixtures of the rac- and meso-diastereomers. The new ferrocene derivatives 1–3 and the complexes meso-[1(BH₃)₂], ...

Prevalence and utilization of company integration management in Germany: Results of the 2018 BiBB/BAuA survey of employed persons
(2021-09-09)
Objectives
This secondary analysis aims to investigate the implementation of the legally required company integration management (“BEM”) in case of an incapacity for work of at least six weeks and to identify predictors.
Methods
Database is the representative randomized 2018 BIBB/BAuA Employment Survey of 20 012 employed persons in Germany.
Results
Of the 1367 employees entitled to company integration management, 40% received an offer from their employer and 27% accepted it. In the public sector, half of those ...

Extreme droughts in oligotrophic mountain grasslands cause substantial species abundance changes and amplify community filtering
(2021-10-08)
Questions
Mountain grasslands can be strongly affected by extreme droughts such as those related to climate change. What are the impacts of extreme droughts on community composition, diversity, Ellenberg indicator scores and species groups in oligotrophic montane Nardus grasslands, and what are the associated mechanisms of vegetation change?
Location
Rhön Mountains, Germany.
Methods
Over three consecutive years, we investigated the effects of yearly droughts (April–August) in an experimental setup with rainout ...

Das pandemische Manifest
(Oekom verlag, 2021-09-17)
Die Corona-Krise wird häufig als Zeitenwende beschrieben. Zwei Wege scheinen von nun an möglich: Der eine überhöht den vorpandemischen Zustand als positiv besetzte Normalität und dreht das Rad zurück. Doch wir können nicht zum Normalen zurück. Denn das Normale war das Problem.
Der andere Weg zieht Lehren aus der Pandemie und beginnt, unser Zusammenleben neu auszubuchstabieren. Der Horizont ist klar: Die Reduzierung von Ungleichheit ohne Gleichmacherei; die Begründung einer freien und leistungsgerechten ...

The Transformation of Food Culture on the Case of Kyrgyz Nomads - A Historical Overview
(2021-07-27)
The society in Kyrgyzstan experiences a triple burden of malnutrition which occurs when undernutrition, overnutrition and micronutrient deficiency coexists, straining the public health system. This research investigates historical trends of nutrition transition of nomadic and semi-nomadic Kyrgyz and foods consumed earlier before industrialisation and intensification of agriculture started. Qualitative research design inspired by historical analysis and sociological methods were employed. Saturation sampling was used ...

JOBS Program Germany for health promotion among the unemployed in the community setting with institutions for employment promotion (JobsProgramDtl): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(2021-02-01)
Background
Compared to the employed, the unemployed are characterized by a substantially worse health status, particularly with regards to mental health. At the same time, conventional offers of prevention and health promotion rarely reach the unemployed. The JOBS Program is a health promotion program that combines job application training with elements of social learning theory and self-efficacy. Randomized field studies in the USA and Finland found significant positive effects on reintegration into the labor market ...

Strategic framing of genome editing in agriculture: an analysis of the debate in Germany in the run-up to the European Court of Justice ruling
(2021-10-09)
New techniques in genome editing have led to a controversial debate about the opportunities and uncertainties they present for agricultural food production and consumption. In July 2018, the Court of Justice of the European Union defined genome editing as a new process of mutagenesis, which implies that the resulting organisms count as genetically modified and are subject, in principle, to the obligations of EU Directive 2001/18/EG. This paper examines how key protagonists from academia, politics, and the economy ...

Das Potenzial kooperativen Lernens ausschöpfen: Die Bedeutung der transaktiven Kommunikation für eine lernwirksame Zusammenarbeit
(2021-10-26)
Kooperatives Lernen eröffnet Chancen und birgt gleichzeitig Risiken für den Wissenserwerb. Der Beitrag arbeitet die Bedeutung der transaktiven Kommunikation als zentralen Wirkmechanismus für den genuinen Mehrwert kooperativen Lernens heraus. Unter transaktiver Kommunikation wird die fachinhaltliche Bezugnahme auf den Lernpartner verstanden, wobei niedrig-transaktive (z.B. paraphrasierende) von hoch-transaktiven (z.B. integrierenden) Äußerungen unterschieden werden. Es werden Bedingungen, unter denen sich transaktive ...

The financialization of remittances and the individualization of development: A new power geometry of global development
(2021-08-23)
The article argues that the increasing financialization of remittances produces an enormous shift in the political economy of development and contributes to a new power geometry of development. Exploring this power geometry, the article focuses on three main issues: First, migrants intend to support their friends and families on an individual level as remittance senders, and together with the corresponding recipients they form a translocal moral economy. On a macro level, the value of these transactions is high when ...
