One of the priorities and internationally accepted approaches to the management of innovation processes in the global economy is the cluster approach, a product of the integration of economic processes, which is a powerful tool to promote regional development. It has been effectively studied in the article the regional cluster with data items to ensure the effective interaction of all participants in the process of achieving economic goals. The paper presents an algorithm of information modeling of regional industrial cluster, comprising the steps of determining the hierarchical structure of the processes, the organization of all kinds of flows, the description of the logical structure and the information needs of each process.

Economic aspects of local authorities functioning

© The authors. The relevance of the study on economic aspects of local authorities' functioning is due to their dual nature in the complex system of market relations. In this regard, this article is aimed at economic aspects' revealing of local authorities' functioning, as well as the disclosure of various interest levels' interaction in the system of municipal management. A leading approach in the study of this problem is the method of the effectiveness assessing of local authorities' functioning. The article presents the analysis of domestic researchers' different points of view in relation to the substantial characteristics of municipal economy, reveals the nature of the interaction of various interest levels in the system of municipal relations, discloses the duality of local authorities' position in the municipal system of economic relations, proposes a classification of business entities under the municipal economy, proves the specificity of the economic and moral relations in the system of local authorities. The article is valuable for researchers, teachers and students studying the problems of formation and development of the national municipal economy, research methods within the discipline "Economics of public (government) services", "Municipal economy", as well as specialists of local authorities who are concerned with the improvement and development of municipal economy

NucTools: analysis of chromatin feature occupancy profiles from high-throughput sequencing data

Background: Biomedical applications of high-throughput sequencing methods generate a vast amount of data in which numerous chromatin features are mapped along the genome. The results are frequently analysed by creating binary data sets that link the presence/absence of a given feature to specific genomic loci. However, the nucleosome occupancy or chromatin accessibility landscape is essentially continuous. It is currently a challenge in the field to cope with continuous distributions of deep sequencing chromatin readouts and to integrate the different types of discrete chromatin features to reveal linkages between them. Results: Here we introduce the NucTools suite of Perl scripts as well as MATLAB- and R-based visualization programs for a nucleosome-centred downstream analysis of deep sequencing data. NucTools accounts for the continuous distribution of nucleosome occupancy. It allows calculations of nucleosome occupancy profiles averaged over several replicates, comparisons of nucleosome occupancy landscapes between different experimental conditions, and the estimation of the changes of integral chromatin properties such as the nucleosome repeat length. Furthermore, NucTools facilitates the annotation of nucleosome occupancy with other chromatin features like binding of transcription factors or architectural proteins, and epigenetic marks like histone modifications or DNA methylation. The applications of NucTools are demonstrated for the comparison of several datasets for nucleosome occupancy in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Conclusions: The typical workflows of data processing and integrative analysis with NucTools reveal information on the interplay of nucleosome positioning with other features such as for example binding of a transcription factor CTCF, regions with stable and unstable nucleosomes, and domains of large organized chromatin K9me2 modifications (LOCKs). As potential limitations and problems we discuss how inter-replicate variability of MNase-seq experiments can be addressed

Assessment of potential pathogenicity among clinical strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa using bioluminescent technique

The aim: to study the influence of P. aeruginosa exometabolites on E. coli lux+ bioluminescence and experimentally prove the expediency of use of a bioluminescent method for an estimation of their potential pathogenicity. Objectives and Methods. Exometabolites of P. aeruginosa (n = 27) nosocomial strains were used. Index of potential pathogenicity (IPP) was calculated with the formula: IPP = (Ik — Io)/Ik × 100%, where Ik — intensity of Escherichia coli lux+ bioluminescence in control test (LB), Io — intensity of a bioluminescence in experimental test (exometabolites). Results. Protocol of analysis implementation and exposure duration has been determined. According to IPP, P. aeruginosa strains were subdivided into 3 groups: strains with low degree of pathogenicity, moderate and highly pathogenic. The group of IPP ³ 70% was characterized by reliably high correlation coefficient relatively to pyocyanin production, film-forming ability. This indicates the possibility of bioluminescent method application as screening or additional method of the assessment of P. aeruginosa isolate aggressiveness, and in purulent-septic infections (PSI) in particular
