The present book links up elements from time series analysis with a selection of statistical procedures used in general practice including the statistical software package SAS Statistical Analysis System). Consequently this book addresses students of statistics as well as students of other branches such as economics, demography and engineering, where lectures on statistics belong to their academic training. But it is also intended for the practician who, beyond the use of statistical tools, is interested in their mathematical background. Numerous problems illustrate the applicability of the presented statistical procedures, where SAS gives the solutions. The programs used are explicitly listed and explained. No previous experience is expected neither in SAS nor in a special computer system so that a short training period is guaranteed. This book is meant for a two semester course (lecture, seminar or practical training) where the first two chapters can be dealt with in the first semester. They provide the principal components of the analysis of a time series in the time domain. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 deal with its analysis in the frequency domain and can be worked through in the second term. In order to understand the mathematical background some terms are useful such as convergence in distribution, stochastic convergence, maximum likelihood estimator as well as a basic knowledge of the test theory, so that work on the book can start after an introductory lecture on stochastics. Each chapter includes exercises. An exhaustive treatment is recommended. This book is consecutively subdivided in a statistical part and an SAS-specific part. For better clearness the SAS-specific part, including the diagrams generated with SAS, always starts with a computer symbol, representing the beginning of a session at the computer, and ends with a printer symbol for the end of this session.

Traditional annotation methods are often error-prone due to the small subset of proteins with experimentally verified function. Goal of this thesis was to analyse the function and evolution of protein domains in order to understand molecular processes in the cell. The focus was on signalling domains of little understood function, as well as on functional sites of protein domains in general. Glucosaminidases (GlcNAcases) represent key enzymes in signal transduction pathways. Together with glucosamine transferases, they serve as molecular switches, similar to kinases and phosphatases. Little was known about the molecular function and structure of the GlcNAcases. In this thesis, the GlcNAcases were identified as remote homologues of N-acetyltransferases. By comparing the homologous sequences, I was able to predict functional sites of the GlcNAcase family and to identify the GlcNAcases as the first family member of the acetyltransferase superfamily with a distinct catalytic mechanism, which is not involved in the transfer of acetyl groups. In a similar approach, the sensor domain of a plant hormone receptor was studied. I was able to predict putative ligand-binding sites by comparing evolutionary constraints in functionally diverged subfamilies. Most of the putative ligand-binding sites have been experimentally confirmed in the meantime. Due to the importance of enzymes involved in cellular signalling, it seems impossible to find substitutions of catalytic amino acids that turn them catalytically inactive. Nevertheless, by scanning catalytic positions of the protein tyrosine phosphatase families, I found many inactive domains among single domain and tandem domain phosphatases in metazoan proteomes. In addition, I found that inactive phosphatases are conserved throughout evolution, which led to the question about the function of these catalytically inactive phosphatase domains. An analysis of evolutionary site rates of amino acid substitutions revealed a cluster of conserved residues in the apparently redundant domain of tandem phosphatases. This putative regulatory center might be responsible for the experimentally verified dimerization of the active and inactive domain in order to control the catalytic activity of the active phosphatase domain. Moreover, I detected a subgroup of inactive phosphatases, which presumably functions in substrate recognition, based on different evolutionary site rates within the phosphatase family. The characterization of these new regulatory modules in the phosphatase family raised the question whether inactivation of enzymes is a more general evolutionary mechanism to enlarge signalling pathways and whether inactive domains are also found in other enzyme families. A large-scale analysis of substitutions at catalytic positions of enzymatic domains was performed in this work. I identified many domains with inactivating substitutions in various enzyme families. Signalling domains harbour a particular high occurrence of catalytically inactive domains indicating that these domains have evolved to modulate existing regulatory pathways. Furthermore, it was shown that inactivation of enzymes by single substitutions happened multiple times independently in evolution. The surprising variability of amino acids at catalytic positions was decisive for a subsequent analysis of the diversity of functional sites in general. Using functional residues extracted from structural complexes I could show that functional sites of protein domains do not only vary in their type of amino acid but also in their structural location within the domain. In the process of evolution, protein domains have arisen from duplication events and subsequently adapted to new binding partners and developed new functions, which is reflected in the high variability of functional sites. However, great differences exist between domain families. The analysis demonstrated that functional sites of nuclear domains are more conserved than functional sites of extracellular domains. Furthermore, the type of ligand influences the degree of conservation, for example ion binding sites are more conserved than peptide binding sites. The work presented in this thesis has led to the detection of functional sites in various protein domains involved in signalling pathways and it has resulted in insights into the molecular function of those domains. In addition, properties of functional sites of protein domains were revealed. This knowledge can be used in the future to improve the prediction of protein function and to identify functional sites of proteins.}, subject = {Dom{\"a}ne }, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Pozgajova2005, author = {Pozgajova, Miroslava}, title = {Studies on formation and stabilization of pathological thrombi in vivo}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-16784}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2005}, abstract = {Platelet activation and adhesion resulting in thrombus growth is essential for normal hemostasis, but can lead to irreversible, life-threatening vessel occlusion.

Previous experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and experimental autoimmune neuritis (EAN) models have demonstrated that T cells play a major role in these diseases. Which roles CD4 and CD8 T cells specifically have in the initiation, propagation and termination of an autoimmune nervous system disorder remains controversial. To this end two transgenic mice specifically expressing the neo-antigen (Ag) ovalbumin (OVA) in either the central nervous system (CNS) or peripheral nervous system (PNS) were to be generated. The myelin basic protein (MBP) is a major component of the myelin sheath both within the CNS and the PNS. Therefore the MBP promoter was employed for its distinct regulatory elements to facilitate exclusive CNS or PNS OVA expression. The adoptive transfer of OVA specific MHCI restricted (OT-I) and MHCII restricted (OT-II) TCR Tg T cells extended the OVA Tg mouse model by allowing potentially encephalitogenic T cells to be tracked in vivo.

The post collision interaction (PCI) effect is investigated in free variable size krypton and argon clusters near the Kr 3d and Ar 2p ionization energies. The core ionization energies of surface and bulk sites in variable size clusters can be clearly distinguished. This is mostly due to the polarization screening. It is found that the asymmetry, which is a consequence of PCI, is characteristically smaller for clusters than for isolated atoms. Moreover, there is less asymmetry for bulk sites than for surface sites in variable size rare gas clusters. We assign the results in terms of mechanisms that are based on quantum mechanical models of post collision interaction. Complementary experiments on the photoionization of free van der Waals clusters are performed by using zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy in the Ar 2p-, Kr 3d-, Ne 1s-, and N2-regimes. The experimental approach is also suitable to detect cluster size dependent changes in electronic structure. This also allows us to study post collision interaction in variable size clusters. The parameters of the PCI profiles deduced for ZEKE experiments indicate that there are no significant changes in core ionization dynamics compared to near-threshold experiments. Results from model calculations in Kr 3d ionization energy indicate that different geometric sites can be clearly distinguished from each other by their substantial shift in Kr 3d ionization energy, though the dimer shows almost the same Kr 3d ionization energy as the free atom. A comparison with the experimental results indicates that there is resemblance with the model calculations, even though close-lying ionization energies are blended and require deconvolutions of the experimental spectra. It is evident from the present work that one can observe distinct shifts in core ionization energies in van der Waals clusters that are formed in wide size distributions of a jet expansion. The emission of ultraviolet fluorescence radiation from variable size argon clusters is investigated with high spectral resolution in the Ar 2p-excitation regime. The fluorescence excitation spectra reveal strong fluorescence intensity in the Ar 2p-continuum, but no evidence for the occurrence of discrete low-lying core-exciton states in the near-edge regime. This finding is different from the absorption and photoionization cross sections of argon clusters and the solid. The dispersed fluorescence shows a broad molecular band centered near 280 nm. The present results are consistent with the formation of singly charged, excited moieties within the clusters, which are assigned as sources of the radiative relaxation in the 280 nm regime. A fast energy transfer process (interatomic Coulombic decay, ICD) is assigned to be primarily the origin of these singly charged, excited cations besides intra-cluster electron impact ionization by Auger electrons. Our findings give possibly the first experimental evidence for ICD in the core level regime. Free, variable size nitrogen clusters are investigated in the N 1s excitation regime in comparison with the free molecule and solid nitrogen. The conversion of Rydberg states into core excitons, surface and bulk, was studied. The experimental results are simulated by ab initio calculations using (N2)13 as a reasonable prototype cluster structure that allows us to simulate both surface and bulk properties in comparison with the isolated molecule. The present results clearly show that there are specific properties, such as molecular orientation, in molecular van der Waals clusters, which do not exist in atomic van der Waals clusters. It is shown that inner and outer surface sites give rise to distinct energy shifts of the low lying surface core excitons.}, subject = {Photoionisation}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Kackstaetter2003, author = {Kackstaetter, Uwe R.}, title = {Contaminant diffusion and sorption of an artificial leachate in selected geologic barriers of Frankonia, Bavaria, Germany}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-16151}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2003}, abstract = {The geologic barrier represents the final contact between a landfill and the environment. Ideally suited are clays and mudstones because of sufficient vertical and lateral extent, low hydraulic conductivities and high sorptive characteristics. Since hydraulic conductivity is no longer the single criteria to determine transport and retardation of contaminants in geologic landfill barrier materials, diffusive and sorptive characteristics of 4 different clay and mudstone lithologies in Northern Bavaria, were investigated. Cored samples from various depths were included in this study and subjected to evaluations of geochemistry, mineralogy, physical parameters, sorption and diffusion. A transient double reservoir with decreasing source concentration was designed and constructed using clear polycarbonate cylinders for undisturbed clay plugs of 2 to 4cm thickness. Samples were also fitted with internal electrical conductivity probes to determine the migration of the diffusive front. A multi chemical species synthetic landfill leachate was contrived to simulate and evaluate natural pollutant conditions. A computational method for determining mineralogy from geochemical data was also developed. It was found that sorptive processes are mostly controlled by the quality and type of fine grained phyllosilicates and the individual chemical species involved exhibited linear, Freundlich, as well as Langmuir sorption properties. Effective diffusion and sorption coefficients were also determined using POLLUTEv6 (GAEA, 1997) software and receptor reservoir concentrations for K, Na, Ca, Cu, NH4, Cl, NO3, SO4, and concentration totals at predetermined time intervals. Anion exclusion proved to be a major factor in the diffusion process and was used to explain many observed anomalies. Furthermore, diffusion coefficients were found not to be static with a multi chemical species leachate, but actually varied during the course of the experiment. Strong indications point toward the major role of pore space quality, shape, and form as control of diffusive properties of a geologic barrier.

The half wave potential of the first oxidation wave correlates linearly with the number of Cl- and OMe-substituents. AM1-CISD derived values of the absorption energies are in good agreement with the experiments but differ strongly for the oscillator strengths as well as for neutral compounds and their corresponding mono radical cations. The small solvent dependence of the experimental UV/Vis spectra in CH2Cl2 and MeCN reflects a minor charge transfer character of the electronic transitions. The UV/Vis/NIR spectra of the series of TAAs and their corresponding radical cations and the AM1 computations reveal that even small substituents may lead to strong symmetry breaking and to a modified electronic structure. The spectroscopic properties of a series of four bis-TAA donor-bridge-donor X-B-X dimers, composed of two asymmetric TAA chromophores (monomers) were investigated. UV/vis-, fluorescence and transient absorption spectra were recorded and compared with those of the corresponding X-B monomers. The excited states of the dimers are described as MV states which show, depending on the chemical nature of the bridge, a varying amount of interactions. It was found that superradiant emission only proceeds in the case of weak and medium coupling. Whether the first excited state potential energy surface of the dimers is a single minimum or a double minimum potential depends on the solvent polarity and the electronic coupling. In the latter case, the dimer relaxes in a symmetry broken CT state. The [2.2]paracyclophane bridged dimer is an example for a weakly coupled system, because the spectroscopic behavior is very similar to the corresponding p xylene monomer. In contrast, anthracene as well as p-xylene bridges mediate a stronger coupling and reveal a significant cooperative influence on the optical properties. A series of [2.2]paracylophane bridged bis-TAA MV radical cations X-B-X+ were analyzed by a GMH three-level model which takes two transitions into account: the IV-CT band and the bridge band. From the GMH analysis, one can conclude that the [2.2]paracyclophane moiety is not the limiting factor which governs the intramolecular charge transfer. The electronic interactions are of course smaller than direct conjugation but from the order of magnitude of the couplings of the [2.2]paracyclophane MV species it can be assumed that this bridge is able to mediate significant through-space and through-bond interactions. From the exponential dependence of the electronic coupling V between the two TAA localized states on the distance r between the two redox centers, it was inferred that the HT proceeds via superexchange mechanism. The analysis reveals that even significantly longer conjugated bridges should still mediate significant electronic interactions, because the decay constant of a series of conjugated MV species is small. The absorption properties of a series of bis-TAA-[2.2]paracyclophane dications X+-B-X+ were presented. The localized and the CT transitions of these dications are explained and analyzed by an exciton coupling model which also considers the photophysical properties of the monomeric TAA radical cations. Together with AM1-CISD calculated transition moments, experimental transition moments and transition energies of the bis-TAA dications were used to calculate electronic couplings by a GMH approach. These couplings are a measure for interactions of the excited MV CT states. The modification of the diabatic states reveals similarities of the GMH three-level model and the exciton coupling model. Comparison of the two models shows that the transition moment between the excited mixed-valence states of the dimer equals the dipole moment difference of the ground and the excited bridge state of the corresponding monomer. Thianthrenophane (1) has a cavity which offers enough room to potentially enable endohedral coordination to small ions or molecules. For the complexation of silver(I) perchlorate, the complex stability constants of thianthrenophane logK1=5.45 and of thianthrene logK2=9.16 were determined by UV/Vis titration. Single competition transport experiments with ten metal salts demonstrate a very high selectivity of thianthrenophane as a carrier for silver(I) and a distinctly higher transport rate compared to carriers such as thianthrene and 14-ane-S4. Although the X-ray crystal structure analysis of the polymeric [Ag(1)]ClO4 shows an exohedral coordination to silver(I), the formation of an endohedral [Ag(1)]+ complex is suggested to be the explanation for the unusual carrier selectivity of silver(I) by 1 in bulk liquid membrane.}, subject = {Triarylamine}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Kriegisch2005, author = {Kriegisch, Volker}, title = {Electron transfer processes between organic redox centres and electrodes via active bridges in self-assembled monolayers}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-15892}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2005}, abstract = {Cyclovoltammetrische Messungen der Ferrocenalkylthiole 1 - 3 belegen, dass homogene, gemischte Monolagen aus redoxaktiven Verbindungen und redoxinaktiven Alkylthiolen gebildet werden. Die von Creager et al. bestimmten ET Raten der Ferrocenalkylthiole 1 - 3 konnten hierbei verifiziert werden. Wie erwartet erfolgt eine Abnahme der ET Geschwindigkeit bei einer Kettenverl{\"a}ngerung des Alkylspacers von 2 nach 3. Eine unterschiedliche Konnektivit{\"a}t zwischen Redoxzentrum und Alkylspacer, z. B. die Einf{\"u}hrung einer Carbonyl-Funktion im Falle von 1, unter Beibehaltung der Kettenl{\"a}nge zeigt keinen bemerkbaren Einfluß auf den ET. Trotzt vergleichbaren Abstands der aromatischen Ferrocenthiole 4 und 5 zu der C8-Alkyl-Verbindung 2 zwischen Redoxzentrum und Elektrode, weisen diese aufgrund ihrer starken Konjugation sehr hohe ET Geschwindigkeiten auf. Die elektronischen Kopplungsfaktoren selbst deuten auf einen nichtadiabtischen ET zwischen Redoxzentrum und Elektrode hin. Wie erwartet kommt es zu einem Anwachsen der Kopplungsfaktoren bei sich verk{\"u}rzender Kettenl{\"a}nge oder bei Einf{\"u}hrung konjugierter Spacersysteme. Zusammenfassend kann gesagt werden, dass Erfahrungen hinsichtlich der Pr{\"a}paration der Monolagen gesammelt, die gemessenen ET Raten f{\"u}r der literaturbekannten Verbindungen 1 - 3 best{\"a}tigt und diese Informationen auf die konjugierten Verbindungen 4 und 5 angewandt werden konnten. Im zweiten Teil wurden die Triarylamin- (29, 32) und Phenothiazinalkylthiole (35) bez{\"u}glich ihres ET Verhaltens in gemischten Monolagen untersucht. Mittels Cyclovoltammetrie konnte gezeigt werden, daß einheitlich geformte, verd{\"u}nnte Monolagen vorliegen. Die ET Raten der Triarylamin- (29, 32) und Phenithiazinalkylthiole (35) sind jedoch um den Faktor 10 bis 100 h{\"o}her als vergleichbare Ferrocenalkylthiole gleicher Kettenl{\"a}nge [1, 2], wohingegen f{\"u}r Monolagen, welche [Ru(bpy)2(pp)]+-Alkythiole enthalten, {\"a}quivalente Werte gefunden wurden [3]. Die ET Geschwindigkeit wird von zwei Parametern beeinflusst: dem elektronischen Kopplungsmatrixelement und der Regorganisationsenergie \&\#61548;\&\#61472; [4]. Die ET Geschwindigkeit in Donor-substituierten Alkylthiolen wird haupts{\"a}chlich durch \&\#61548; beeinflusst und sogar kleine {\"A}nderungen dieser zeigen eine große Auswirkung auf die zu untersuchenden Prozesse. Aus diesem Grund wird eine Zunahme der ET Geschwindigkeit von Ferrocen (hohe Reorganisationsenergie) {\"u}ber die Phenothiazinverbindung 35 und [Ru(bpy)2(pp)]+ zu den Triarylaminchromophoren 29 und 32 (niedrige Reorganisationsenergie) beobachtet. Weiterhin spielt, im Gegensatz zu Beobachtung von Creager et al. an {\"a}quivalenten Ferrocenverbingungen, die Anbindung des Redoxzentrums an den Alkylspacer eine bedeutende Rolle. Im Falle der elektronenreichen Ether-verbr{\"u}ckten Verbindung 29 wird der ET nicht alleine durch \&\#61548;, sondern ebenso durch mesomere Effekte bestimmt. Bei 29 kommt es durch Lokalisation der positiven Ladung nahe der Ether Funktion formal zu einer Kettenverk{\"u}rzung um eine „Methyleneinheit", welche schließlich in h{\"o}heren ET Geschwindigkeiten resultiert. Im dritten Teil dieser Dissertation wurde ein Serie „molekularer Dr{\"a}hte" bestehend aus Methoxy- oder Chlorid-substituierten Triarylamin- und Phenothiazinverbindungen mit unterschiedlichen Br{\"u}ckeneinheiten und Br{\"u}ckenl{\"a}ngen zwischen Redoxzentrum und Ankerfunktion dargestellt und im Hinblick auf ihr ET Verhalten untersucht. Durch cyclovoltammetrische und UV/Vis-spektroskopische Untersuchungen konnte gezeigt werden, dass sowohl die Oxidationspotentiale als auch die energetischen Zust{\"a}nde der Chromophore recht gut durch Einf{\"u}hrung unterschiedlicher Redoxzentren und Br{\"u}ckeneinheiten beeinflusst werden k{\"o}nnen. Trotz erfolgreicher Kontrolle der Dichte der Chromophoreinheiten in den gemischten Monolagen konnte nur f{\"u}r die Verbindungen 49, 52 und 87 mit Nitril-substituierten Br{\"u}ckeneinheiten verl{\"a}ssliche ET Geschwindigkeiten erhalten werden. Bei diesen Chromphoren ist ein Absinken der ET Geschwindigkeit bei zunehmender Dichte der redoxaktiven Molek{\"u}le in den gemischten Monolagen zu beobachten, welche auf eine {\"A}nderung der Adsorptionsgeometrie hindeutet. Bei zunehmender Packungsdichte der Chromophore f{\"u}hrt dies zu einer aufrechteren Stellung der redoxaktiven Spezies. F{\"u}r alle anderen Verbindungen konnten keine Werte aufgrund der zu schnellen ET Geschwindigkeiten ermittelt werden. Konformelle, wie auch die sehr geringe Abstandsabh{\"a}ngigkeit des ET, resultieren in hohen ET Geschwindigkeiten oder auch ung{\"u}nstige HOMO-LUMO Energien bez{\"u}glich des Donors, der Br{\"u}cke und der Elektrode sind Gr{\"u}nde f{\"u}r dieses Verhalten. Die Tatsache, dass Verbindung 49 und 52 beinahe die gleichen Geschwindigkeitskonstanten des ETs unabh{\"a}ngig von der Anzahl der Br{\"u}ckeneinheiten (n = 2, n = 3) besitzen, deutet darauf hin, dass ein Hopping-Prozess stattfindet, bei welchem eine geringere L{\"a}ngenabh{\"a}ngigkeit des ETs als bei eine Superexchange-Mechanismus zu erwarten ist.}, subject = {Monoschicht}, language = {en} }
