T1  - Diversity and interactions of wood-inhabiting fungi and beetles after deadwood enrichment
JF  - PLoS ONE
N2  - Freshly cut beech deadwood was enriched in the canopy and on the ground in three cultural landscapes in Germany (Swabian Alb, Hainich-Dun, Schorfheide-Chorin) in order to analyse the diversity, distribution and interaction of wood-inhabiting fungi and beetles. After two years of wood decay 83 MOTUs (Molecular Operational Taxonomic Units) from 28 wood samples were identified. Flight Interception Traps (FITs) installed adjacent to the deadwood enrichments captured 29.465 beetles which were sorted to 566 species. Geographical 'region' was the main factor determining both beetle and fungal assemblages. The proportions of species occurring in all regions were low. Statistic models suggest that assemblages of both taxa differed between stratum and management praxis but their strength varied among regions. Fungal assemblages in Hainich-Dun, for which the data was most comprehensive, discriminated unmanaged from extensively managed and age-class forests (even-aged timber management) while canopy communities differed not from those near the ground. In contrast, the beetle assemblages at the same sites showed the opposite pattern. We pursued an approach in the search for fungus-beetle associations by computing cross correlations and visualize significant links in a network graph. These correlations can be used to formulate hypotheses on mutualistic relationships for example in respect to beetles acting as vectors of fungal spores.

T1  - Measurement of the branching ratio Γ(Λ\(^0_b\)→ψ(2S)Λ\(^0\))/Γ(Λ\(^0_b\)→J/ψΛ\(^0\)) with the ATLAS detector
JF  - Physics Letters B
N2  - An observation of the View the Λ\(^0_b\)→ψ(2S)Λ\(^0\) decay and a comparison of its branching fraction with that of the Λ\(^0_b\)→J/ψΛ\(^0\) decay has been made with the ATLAS detector in proton–proton collisions at \(\sqrt {s}\)=8 TeV at the LHC using an integrated luminosity of 20.6 fb\(^{-1}\). The J/ψJ/ψ and ψ(2S) mesons are reconstructed in their decays to a muon pair, while the Λ\(^0\)→pπ\(^-\) decay is exploited for the Λ\(^0\) baryon reconstruction. The Λ\(^0_b\) baryons are reconstructed with transverse momentum p\(_T\)>10 GeV pT>10 GeV and pseudorapidity |η|<2.1. The measured branching ratio of the Λ\(^0_b\)→ψ(2S)Λ\(^0\) and Λ\(^0_b\)→J/ψΛ\(^0\) decays is Γ(Λ\(^0_b\)→ψ(2S)Λ\(^0\))/Γ(Λ\(^0_b\)→J/ψΛ\(^0\))=0.501±0.033(stat)±0.019(syst), lower than the expectation from the covariant quark model.

T1  - RC3H1 post-transcriptionally regulates A20 mRNA and modulates the activity of the IKK/NF-\(\kappa\)B pathway
JF  - Nature Communications
N2  - The RNA-binding protein RC3H1 (also known as ROQUIN) promotes TNF\(\alpha\) mRNA decay via a 3'UTR constitutive decay element (CDE). Here we applied PAR-CLIP to human RC3H1 to identify ~3,800 mRNA targets with >16,000 binding sites. A large number of sites are distinct from the consensus CDE and revealed a structure-sequence motif with U-rich sequences embedded in hairpins. RC3H1 binds preferentially short-lived and DNA damage-induced mRNAs, indicating a role of this RNA-binding protein in the post-transcriptional regulation of the DNA damage response. Intriguingly, RC3H1 affects expression of the NF-\(\kappa\)B pathway regulators such as I\(\kappa\)B\(\alpha\) and A20. RC3H1 uses ROQ and Zn-finger domains to contact a binding site in the A20 3'UTR, demonstrating a not yet recognized mode of RC3H1 binding. Knockdown of RC3H1 resulted in increased A20 protein expression, thereby interfering with I\(\kappa\)B kinase and NF-\(\kappa\)B activities, demonstrating that RC3H1 can modulate the activity of the IKK/NF-\(\kappa\)B pathway.
