Пряма регенерація мікропагонів з листкових дисків ківі (Actinidia delisiosa (Chev.) Liang, Ferguson) в умовах in vitro
The method of direct regeneration of microshoots from leaf disks of kiwi fruit is developed. The factors influencing morphogenetic potency of leaf disks of 4 kiwi fruit cultivars (Bruno, Monti, Tomuri, Sanishton) in condition in vitro are determined. The genetically uniform plant material is obtained.Розроблено спосіб прямої регенерації мікропагонів з листкових дисків ківі. Визначено фактори, що впливають на морфогенетичні потенції листкових дисків 4 сортів ківі (Бруно, Монті, Томурі, Саніштон) в умовах in vitro. Отримано генетично однорідний рослинний матеріал
Caloric restriction and the nutrient-sensing protein kinase TOR1 alter the pattern of protein phosphorylation in quiescent and non-quiescent cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The application of yeast as a model organism for studying eukaryotic pathways, notably mechanisms and processes of chronological aging, has been recognized for decades. In fact, several signalling pathways of longevity regulation are conserved across phyla; humans (and other mammals) have orthologs and homologs of yeast proteins integrated into these pathways. One of such pathways is the TOR pathway that responds to nutrient levels, notably via TORC1 (a complex with protein kinase activity; contains TOR1 as a core protein). My thesis taps into both of those advantageous properties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae: its ease of culturing for chronological aging studies, and well annotated proteome. I study the chronologically aging quiescent and non-quiescent cell populations under caloric restriction or not using wild-type or tor1 single gene deletion mutant strains. I use quantitative phosphoproteomics – by means of mass spectrometry – to assess the differences and similarities between different cell populations. Caloric restriction has previously been shown to extend the chronological lifespan of yeast and other organisms. Reduced TOR1 activity (such as via inhibitors or by gene deletion) is also shown to extend yeast chronological lifespan in literature. Quiescence, an ability of a nutrient-limited post-mitotic cell to re-enter the cell cycle when the nutrient supply is restored, is also a lifespan-extending process. Combining these factors, I compared the phosphoproteomes of quiescent and non-quiescent yeast cells limited or not limited in calorie supply and having or lacking the TOR1 protein. I found that both the diet and the state of quiescence have significant effect on the phosphorylation of proteins. Moreover, I found that a single-gene-deletion mutation that eliminates the TOR1 protein has a significant impact on both the state of quiescence and the cell phosphoproteome
Orthodox actors and equal opportunities policies in the Republic of Moldova in the context of the transformation of post-Soviet societies
This article examines how the key Orthodox actors in Moldova have reacted to challenging equal opportunities legislation. The author suggests, on the basis of an economic approach to religion, that under the conditions of a deregulated religious market they use various strategies to promote their agendas. The Moldovan Orthodox Church (the Metropolitanate of Moldova), autonomous within the Russian Orthodox Church, previously relied on making private bargains with the government; but this policy ended with the adoption of the 2013 Law on Ensuring Equality in the Republic of Moldova. Now the Metropolitanate tries to assimilate the strategies of direct action, but without success. The so-called ‘non-mentioning’ radicals, technically being part of the Metropolitanate of Moldova, but not praying for its bishop, are involved in direct political activism – from setting up protest camps to street fighting – to confront de-stigmatization of homosexuality. The Bessarabian Metropolitanate of the Romanian Orthodox Church utilizes the strategies of European ‘public’ churches and gains influence through performing some useful social functions. This article concludes that all actors have their own advantages and weaknesses; nevertheless, so far the Metropolitanate of Moldova remains the strongest; while the other competitors are serving specific religious niches, it is this body which still possesses the potential to influence society more broadly
