    Abstract Biogenesis of eukaryotic box C/D small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins initiates co-transcriptionally and requires the action of the assembly machinery including the Hsp90/R2TP complex, the Rsa1p:Hit1p heterodimer and the Bcd1 protein. We present genetic interactions between the Rsa1p-encoding gene and genes involved in chromatin organization including RTT106 that codes for the H3-H4 histone chaperone Rtt106p controlling H3K56ac deposition. We show that Bcd1p binds Rtt106p and controls its transcription-dependent recruitment by reducing its association with RNA polymerase II, modulating H3K56ac levels at gene body. We reveal the 3D structures of the free and Rtt106p-bound forms of Bcd1p using nuclear magnetic resonance and X-ray crystallography. The interaction is also studied by a combination of biophysical and proteomic techniques. Bcd1p interacts with a region that is distinct from the interaction interface between the histone chaperone and histone H3. Our results are evidence for a protein interaction interface for Rtt106p that controls its transcription-associated activity.

    Abstract Biogenesis of small nucleolar RNAs ribonucleoproteins (snoRNPs) requires dedicated assembly machinery. Here, the authors show that a subset of snoRNP assembly factors interacts, genetically or directly, with factors modulating chromatin architecture, suggesting a link between ribosome formation and chromatin functions.

    Abstract A search for charmed baryons decaying to D(0)p reveals two states: the Lambdac(2880)+ baryon and a previously unobserved state at a mass of [2939.8+/-1.3(stat)+/-1.0(syst)] MeV/c2 and with an intrinsic width of [17.5+/-5.2(stat)+/-5.9(syst)] MeV. Consistent and significant signals are observed for the K(-)pi(+) and K(-)pi(+)pi(-)pi(+) decay modes of the D0 in 287 fb(-1) annihilation data recorded by the BABAR detector at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV. There is no evidence in the D+p spectrum of doubly charged partners. The mass and intrinsic width of the Lambdac(2880)+ baryon and relative yield of the two baryons are also measured.

    Abstract Our goal was to evaluate the diagnostic utility of C-reactive protein (CRP) alone or combined with clinical probability assessment in patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE), and to compare its performance to a D-dimer assay. We conducted a prospective study in which we performed a common immuno-turbidimetric CRP test and a rapid enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) D-dimer test in 259 consecutive outpatients with suspected PE at the emergency department of a teaching hospital. We assessed clinical probability of PE by a validated prediction rule overridden by clinical judgment. Patients with D-dimer levels > or = 500 microg/l underwent a work-up consisting of lower-limb venous ultrasound, spiral computerized tomography, ventilation-perfusion scan, or pulmonary angiography. Patients were followed up for three months. Seventy-seven (30%) of the patients had PE. The CRP alone had a sensitivity of 84% (95% confidence interval [CI).: 74 to 92%) and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 87% (95% CI: 78 to 93%) at a cutpoint of 5 mg/l. Overall, 61 (24%) patients with a low clinical probability of PE had a CRP < 5 mg/l. Due to the low prevalence of PE (9%) in this subgroup, the NPV increased to 97% (95% CI: 89 to 100%). The D-dimer (cutpoint 500 micro g/l) showed a sensitivity of 100% (95% CI: 95 to 100%) and a NPV of 100% (95% CI: 94 to 100%) irrespective of clinical probability and accurately rule out PE in 56 (22%) patients. Standard CRP tests alone or combined with clinical probability assessment cannot safely exclude PE.

    Abstract The hormonal form of vitamin D, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25- (OH)2D3], transiently stimulates the transcription of the c-fos proto-oncogene in osteoblastic cells. We have identified and characterized a vitamin D response element (VDRE) in the promoter of c-fos. The 1,25-(OH)2D3-responsive region was delineated between residues -178 and -144 upstream of the c-fos transcription start site. A mutation that inhibited binding to the sequence concomitantly abolished 1,25-(OH)2D3-induced transcriptional responsiveness; similarly, cloning to the site upstream of a heterologous promoter conferred copy-number-dependent vitamin D responsiveness to a reporter gene, demonstrating that we have identified a functional response element. The structure of the c-fos VDRE was found to be unusual. Mutational analysis revealed that the c-fos VDRE does not conform to the direct repeat configuration in which hexameric core-binding sites are spaced by a few nucleotide residues. In contrast, the entire 36-bp sequence was essential for binding. We identified the vitamin D receptor and the retinoid X receptor alpha as components of the complex that bound the c-fos VDRE. However, our results also show that a putative CCAAT-binding transcription factor/nuclear factor 1 (CTF/NF-1) family member bound the response element in conjunction with the nuclear hormone receptors. The expression of this CTF/NF-1 family member appeared restricted to bone cells. These data hint at new molecular mechanisms of action for vitamin D.

    Abstract L’identification visuelle de structures spatiales à partir d’un semis de points est une tache délicate, pour peu que le nombre d’individus soit élevé. Cet article présente et compare deux méthodes permettant d’améliorer significativement la représentation graphique de données spatiales ponctuelles. La première est basée sur l’estimation d’une fonction de densité de Kernel au sein de fenêtres mobiles, tandis que la seconde repose sur un carroyage spatial. Ces deux méthodes sont appliquées aux accidents de route dans la Communauté urbaine de Lille.

    Abstract Spatial point pattern analysis of large data sets involves powerful visualization techniques. This paper intends to present two suitable methods : the first one is based on kernel density estimation technique, while the second uses regular grid of quadrats superimposed on the event distribution. Both methods are applied to road accidents analysis in the urban community of Lille (France).
