Project description:This paper describes data from five studies focused on the individual fish identification of the same species. The lateral images of five fish species are present in the dataset. The dataset's primary purpose is to provide a data to develop a non-invasive and remote method of individual fish identification using fish skin patterns, which can serve as a substitute for the common invasive fish tagging. The lateral images of the whole fish body on the homogenous background for Sumatra barb, Atlantic salmon, Sea bass, Common carp and Rainbow trout are available with automatically extracted parts of the fish with skin patterns. A different number of individuals (Sumatra barb - 43, Atlantic salmon - 330, Sea bass - 300, Common carp - 32, Rainbow trout - 1849) were photographed by the digital camera Nikon D60 under controlled conditions. The photographs of only one side of the fish with several (from 3 to 20) repetitions were taken. Common carp, Rainbow trout and Sea bass were photographed out of the water. Atlantic salmon was photographed underwater, out of the water, and the eye of the fish was photographed by the microscope camera. Sumatra barb was photographed under the water only. For all species, except Rainbow trout, the data collection was repeated after a different period (Sumatra barb - four months, Atlantic salmon - six months, Sea bass - one month, Common carp - four months) to collect the data for a study of skin patter changes (ageing). The development of the method for photo-based individual fish identification was performed on all datasets. The identification accuracy for all species for all periods was 100% using the nearest neighbour classification. Different methods for skin pattern parametrization were used. The dataset can be used to develop remote and non-invasive individual fish identification methods. The studies focused on the discrimination power of the skin pattern can benefit from it. The changes of skin patterns due to fish ageing can be explored from the dataset.

Project description:Tunable and durable photochromic materials are a rapidly expanding area of interest, with applications ranging from biomedical devices to industrial-fields. Here we examine electrospun poly (methacrylic acid) PMAA nanofibers covalently modified with the highly photochromic molecule, spiropyran (SP) or a derivate SP which is firstly coupled to a cyclodextrin molecule (?CDSP). The photochromic properties of the starting materials and of the nanofibers were investigated. ?CDSP, PMAASP and PMAA-?CDSP polymers exhibited a reverse photochromism. The kinetic results revealed a faster isomerization process for the ?CDSP molecule, than that for the PMAA-?CDSP and for the PMAASP, the slowest one. The fastest isomerization is attributed to the presence of a large number of hydroxyl groups of the ?CD which stabilizes the merocyanine form via hydrogen bonding, and the slowest isomerization is related to the PMAA chain structure that stabilizes the spiropyran form. Thus, combining the PMAA and ?CD properties the photo-isomerization can be modulated. The photoreversibility of this material was verified by UV-visible measurements cycling visible and UV light. Infrared spectroscopy and water contact angle were used for the nanofiber surface characterization, demonstrating the presence of the spiropyran on the mats surface and also showing a minimal effect on nanofiber size and shape when compared to PMAA fiber.

Project description:A major roadblock to fully realizing molecular electronic devices is the ability to control the properties of each molecule in the device. Herein we report the control of the magnetic properties of single-molecule magnets (SMMs), which can be used in memory devices, by using a photo-isomerizable diarthylenthene ligand. Photo-isomerization of the diarylethene ligand bridging two manganese salen complexes with visible light caused a significant change in the SMM behavior due to opening of the six-membered ring of diarylethene ligand, accompanied by reorganization of the entire molecule. The ring-opening activated the frequency-dependent magnetization of the complex. Our results are a major step towards the realization of molecular memory devices composed of SMMs because the SMM behaviour can be turned on and off simply by irradiating the molecule.

Project description:While the GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) satellite mission is of great significance in understanding various branches of Earth sciences, the quality of GRACE monthly products can be unsatisfactory due to strong longitudinal stripe-pattern errors and other flaws. Based on corrected GRACE Mascon (mass concentration) gridded mass transport time series and updated LDCgam (Least Difference Combination global angular momenta) data, we present a new set of monthly gravity models called LDCmgm90, in the form of Stokes coefficients with order and degree both up to 90. The LDCgam inputs are developed by assimilating degree-2 Stokes coefficients from various versions of GRACE (including Mascon products) and SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging) monthly gravity data into combinations of outputs from various global atmospheric, oceanic, and hydrological circulation models, under the constraints of accurately measured Earth orientation parameters in the Least Difference Combination (LDC) scheme. Taking advantages of the relative strengths of the various input solutions, the LDCmgm90 is free of stripes and some other flaws of classical GRACE products.

Project description:Biochemical assay interference is becoming increasingly recognized as a significant waste of resource in drug discovery, both in industry and academia. A seminal publication from Baell and Holloway raised the awareness of this issue, and they published a set of alerts to identify what they described as PAINS (pan-assay interference compounds). These alerts have been taken up by drug discovery groups, even though the original paper had a somewhat limited data set. Here, we have taken Lilly's far larger internal data set to assess the PAINS alerts on four criteria: promiscuity (over six assay formats including AlphaScreen), compound stability, cytotoxicity, and presence of a high Hill slope as a surrogate for non-1:1 protein-ligand binding. It was found that only three of the alerts show pan-assay promiscuity, and the alerts appear to encode primarily AlphaScreen promiscuous molecules. Although not enriching for pan-assay promiscuity, many of the alerts do encode molecules that are unstable, show cytotoxicity, and increase the prevalence of high Hill slopes.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia are the top cause for disabilities in later life and various types of experiments have been performed to understand the underlying mechanisms of the disease with the aim of coming up with potential drug targets. These experiments have been carried out by scientists working in different domains such as proteomics, molecular biology, clinical diagnostics and genomics. The results of such experiments are stored in the databases designed for collecting data of similar types. However, in order to get a systematic view of the disease from these independent but complementary data sets, it is necessary to combine them. In this study we describe a heterogeneous network-based data set for Alzheimer's disease (HENA). Additionally, we demonstrate the application of state-of-the-art graph convolutional networks, i.e. deep learning methods for the analysis of such large heterogeneous biological data sets. We expect HENA to allow scientists to explore and analyze their own results in the broader context of Alzheimer's disease research.

Project description:BackgroundThe seagrass Posidonia oceanica L. Delile, commonly known as Neptune grass, is an endemic species of the Mediterranean Sea. It hosts a distinctive and diverse epiphytic community, dominated by various macroalgal and animal organisms. Mediterranean bryozoans have been extensively studied but quantitative data assessing temporal and spatial variability have rarely been documented. In Lepoint et al. (2014a, b) occurrence and abundance data of epiphytic bryozoan communities on leaves of Posidonia oceanica inhabiting Revellata Bay (Corsica, Mediterranean Sea) were reported and trophic ecology of Electra posidoniae Gautier assessed.New informationHere, metadata information is provided on the data set discussed in Lepoint et al. (2014a) and published on the GBIF portal as a sampling-event data set: http://ipt.biodiversity.be/resource?r=ulg_bryozoa&v=1.0). The data set is enriched by data concerning species settled on Posidonia scales (dead petiole of Posidonia leaves, remaining after limb abscission).

Project description:The interpretation of data-driven experiments in genomics often involves a search for biological categories that are enriched for the responder genes identified by the experiments. However, knowledge bases such as the Gene Ontology (GO) contain hundreds or thousands of categories with very high overlap between categories. Thus, enrichment analysis performed on one category at a time frequently returns large numbers of correlated categories, leaving the choice of the most relevant ones to the user's; interpretation. Here we present model-based gene set analysis (MGSA) that analyzes all categories at once by embedding them in a Bayesian network, in which gene response is modeled as a function of the activation of biological categories. Probabilistic inference is used to identify the active categories. The Bayesian modeling approach naturally takes category overlap into account and avoids the need for multiple testing corrections met in single-category enrichment analysis. On simulated data, MGSA identifies active categories with up to 95% precision at a recall of 20% for moderate settings of noise, leading to a 10-fold precision improvement over single-category statistical enrichment analysis. Application to a gene expression data set in yeast demonstrates that the method provides high-level, summarized views of core biological processes and correctly eliminates confounding associations.

Project description:The identification of common tumor signatures can discover the shared molecular mechanisms underlying tumorgenesis whereby we can prevent and treat tumors by a system intervention. We identified tumor-associated signatures including pathways, transcription factors, microRNAs and gene ontology categories by analyzing gene sets for differential expression between normal vs. tumor phenotypes classes in various tumor gene expression datasets. We obtained the common tumor signatures based on their identified frequencies for different tumor types. Some shared signatures important for various tumor types were uncovered and discussed. We proposed that the interventions aiming at both the shared tumor signatures and the tissue-specific tumor signatures might be a potential approach to overcoming cancer.
