From jenn at peace.tbcnet.com Fri Mar 1 18:14:24 2002 From: jenn at peace.tbcnet.com (jenn at peace.tbcnet.com) Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2002 17:14:24 -0600 (CST) Subject: [BiO BB] "SSCA Considered Harmful" - from Ben Tilly (Perlmonks.org) Message-ID: I feel very strongly about this possible legislation, which is why I am forwarding this letter to all of you. Please take the minute or so to read about the SSCA if you are not already aware of it's implications to you and your work. -Jennifer *** On Thursday, Feb 28, 2002 Senator Hollings lead a hearing on his proposed Security Systems Standards and Certification Act, known as the SSSCA. The problem, as Mike Godwin said at http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/200202/msg00273.html, is that Congress doesn't understand the technical issues involved. So we must find examples of those technical issues in contexts that they understand. Email makes a good example. Most people are familiar with it, and it shows the relevant copyright issues. I am sending you an email. If you like it, you might forward it to a friend with a brief comment added. You might send it back to me with corrections made. You might copy phrases out of it to put into a report or memo. It might, as with the message I linked, find its way onto a website on the Internet. By the act of writing you this email, I have a copyright on my words. In these common tasks you have redistributed, modified, and taken away my attribution. Under the SSSCA the software cannot be allowed to let you do that because the software is failing to protect my copyright. According to Hollywood and Senator Hollings, you would be a pirate and criminal for abusing my copyrighted material. Under existing copyright law your actions might infringe, or might be fair use. Mostly it is fair use. So how would the SSSCA solve the problem of your using email as it was designed and intended to be used? Very simply, it would make your email program illegal. The software must be rewritten. Once rewritten it cannot contain a "forward" button. It cannot allow you to copy and paste text from it. It cannot allow you to create a reply with my words included. It cannot allow you to send mail to existing email programs because they don't implement copyright protection. According to the good Senator, only pirates and criminals would want to do any of these things. My copyrighted content MUST be protected from criminals and pirates like you. Email is but one kind of program that is affected. (Do not be fooled. The phrase they use may be "digital device", but their definition of a digital device includes virtually all software programs.) Our lives are filled with electronic content that we produce, transfer, and manipulate. Whether you paste from one Word document to another or copy a spreadsheet, features you use can violate copyrights. Therefore Senator Hollings wants to ban your software. They call this the Security Systems Standards and Certification Act. They claim it is meant to protect poor copyright holders (like me) from criminals and pirates (like you). I call this the complete dismantling and destruction of our computer infrastructure. Please let your representatives know what you call it. You can find their contact information as follows: Senators: http://www.senate.gov/contacting/index_by_state.cfm Congress: http://congress.org/ Sincerely, Ben Tilly PS Your email software has not (yet) been crippled in accord with the proposed SSSCA. Please feel free to use it to forward this message. From paolo at ist.unige.it Tue Mar 5 10:27:15 2002 From: paolo at ist.unige.it (Paolo Romano) Date: Tue, 5 Mar 2002 16:27:15 +0100 Subject: [BiO BB] Call for Papers - NETTAB 2002 Message-ID: <200203051527.QAA20936@ist.unige.it> Dear BioBB members, I'm glad to announce the launch of the Call for Contributions for the NETTAB 2002 Workshop on "Agents in Bioinformatics". Hope to see many of you in Bologna on next July. Bye. Paolo Romano --- NETTAB - NETWORK TOOLS AND APPLICATIONS IN BIOLOGY Second International Workshop on "AGENTS IN BIOINFORMATICS" Call for contributions (oral communications, posters and software demos) July 12th-14th, 2002 Bologna, Italy http://www.nettab.org/ SCOPE Agents and multi-agent systems are the emerging new way of computing. The integration of biological data resources will deal, in the Semantic Web Generation, with agents and software robots. In the last five years there has been a growing interest in the application of agent-based systems in different fields such as e-commerce, transports and health. Agent based systems and applications are well suited to support bioscientists during the process of genome analysis and annotation, so as to the problems of effectively managing and improving the processes that are involved with protein structure prediction. Some specialized projects in this topic are beginning to appear. It may now be a good time to report on the results achieved in this area, to discuss the benefits (and drawbacks) that agent-based systems may bring to bioinformatics domains, and also to provide a list of the research topics that should be tackled in the near future to make the deployment of bioinformatics agent-based systems a reality. The aim of this workshop is to bring together who are working towards the vision of a genome analysis and annotation using agents-based systems. The workshop will also aim to inspire collaboration between these two communities, to strengthen the relationships within bioinformatics community, to activate an osmosis cooperation between bioinformatics and computer science communities, to collect the latest ideas, achievements and proposals in the application of agents and multi-agent systems to the bioinformatics area. The worshop is organized in sessions where invited speakers present the state of art of relevant ongoing projects, sessions for oral communications and a tutorial day. The scientific programme is available at http://www.nettab.org/2002/progr.html .

Written by a pioneer and authority, this invaluable book covers all the key aspects and current affairs in the field of biotechnology, with topics ranging from genome projects, through animal and human cloning, to biowarfare. * * Reviews for the book * * ------------------------------------------------------------ "This thoughtful and provocative book comes at the perfect time, when so many questions are being raised about this field. Hwa Lim has been pivotal in establishing and shaping the field of bioinformatics, his book will open this world to many others." Malorye A. Branca Vice President Cambridge Healthtech Institute Publications, USA ------------------------------------------------------------ "As an "outsider" to this extremely hot field of research and business, I am awed by the clarity and simplicity this author is able to transmit to the readers. As the Vice President for Research of a growing research university with fast and robust growing activity in this area, I have tried, in vain, to read other books about this subject. I usually am more confused by jargons beyond my grasp. This is the first book I read who tells me what it was, what it is, where it is, and where it is expected to be in the years to come. I can only say, BRAVO!" Da Hsuan Feng, Ph.D. Vice President for Research and Graduate Education and Professor of Physics Office of the Vice President for Research & Graduate Education University of Texas at Dallas, USA ------------------------------------------------------------ "This book is thoroughly documented and contains all you need to know to be really on top of the biotech subject. Genetically Yours is a true "Bio-Bible", and I strongly recommend anyone who is interested in the field to read it. As well as Hwa A. Lim's field of expertise (bioinformatics) helps us to algorithmically decipher the complex world of genes, his books gives us a comprehensive understanding of the biotech industry. " Olivier Griperay Vice President, Biotech Projects Invest in France Agency North America The French Agency for International Investment, USA ------------------------------------------------------------ "A topical book, well timed and beautifully written by one of the foremost and dynamic proponents of the field of Genetics and its impact on our daily lives, especially on the fields of medicaments, food and informatics. With this book, Hwa Lim does an admirable service to professionals and lay persons alike, assembling and nicely presenting the Genetics scientific facts and findings, and their socio-economic and business implications. His immaculate discussion of the genetic composition of humans and other living creatures and commodities, makes us hope that he will soon take on the challenge of covering the spiritual dimension, because that holds a few relevant variables that beg to be addressed." Salah H. Mandil, PhD Vice President eStrategies, WiseKey SA, Geneva, and previously: Director, Health Informatics & Telematics, World Health Organisation, Geneva ------------------------------------------------------------ "In this book, Dr. Hwa A. Lim succinctly captures the genomics revolution offering the reader excellent view of the knowledge and opportunities available in modern biological sciences. It's a very comprehensive review on genomics, bioinformatics, biotech and related fields. This book brilliantly describes the post genomics era giving information on biotechnology approaches that are available today which will allow major advances in medicine and agriculture in the very near future. As the global head of Functional Genomics at Novartis, and being very close to this field, I am certain that this book offers scientists and non-scientists a unique opportunity to grasp the major scientific advances of our times. It's a must read for anyone interested in a fresh perspective of these fast moving fields." Dalia Cohen, Ph.D Vice President Gloabl Head Of Functional Genomics Noavartis Pharmaceutical, USA ------------------------------------------------------------ "This informative and comprehensive book nicely brings out role of bioinformatics and genomics in biotechnology research. Dr Hwa Lim has done an excellent job in addressing scientific, economic and social aspects of this new evolving branch of life sciences. This book comes at a perfect time."

For center of mass distance, this should be simple to calculate. For closest approach (for an extended molecule with a specific surface), this might require a bit more effort. There are some excellent tools to help you compute/visualize this. Specifically look at VMD (http://www.ks.uiuc.edu). There are other tools you can look at on http://sal.kachinatech.com which might be relevant.

Please find a text version of my CV below. ------------------------------------------------------------------ CURRICULUM VITAE ================ Version current as of : 14.Mar.2002 Microsoft Word format CV available on request. PERSONAL DETAILS ---------------- Name : Jeremy Smith. Date of Birth : 13.02.78. Address : York. Please E-mail me for contact details. Telephone : Please E-mail me for contact details. E-Mail : jezza_com at hotmail.com. Nationality : British. EDUCATION --------- 1999 - 2000 MRes Bioinformatics : University of York. (Comprises three projects, and a set of modules, please see later for description.) 1999 Summer Internship University of York. Statistical analysis of microarray probe effectiveness in yeast using C (Prof. Rod Hubbard). Internship was gained by my performance in the Bioinformatics MRes interviews. Skills gained: LINUX, vim, C, statistical analysis. 1996 - 1999 BSc in Biology (genetic module bias) at University of York, 2.1 grade. Third year Bioinformatics research project (1999) entitled : "A phylogenetic study of SINE sequences in the Sus scrofa genome using ClustalX and BLAST" (Prof. John Sparrow, Prof. Young)- proposed new relationships, and discovered a possible link with T-RNAs, to which high homology was shown. 1994 - 1996 Sixth Form College, Colchester : 4 'A' levels - Chemistry (B), Biology (C), Art and Design (A), General Studies (C). 1990 - 1994 Philip Morant School, Colchester : 10 GCSEs including Maths, English, Geography, Art and Design. CAREER OBJECTIVE ---------------- High level Bioinformatics programmer/manager. I have began programming at the age of 6, and have a genuine fascination with Bioinformatics. COMMERCIAL EXPERIENCE (1 YEAR IN TOTAL) --------------------------------------- 2000 Perl/Java Developer for Yacc Labs, Leeds. Dynamically generated web sites using Perl CGI/DBI, liasing with customers to establish their needs. 2001 - 2002 Perl/Java Developer for PA News (the Press Association), Howden. Database management with Perl DBI, XML generation/DTD design, XSLT processing. Produced a Perl script which generated valid XML from a database transaction. MRes Bioinformatics Course Overview October 2000 ================================================ Fall Term : ( Introduction to Computers. ( Molecular Sequence Analysis. ( Genomics. ( Neural Nets. ( Numerical Skills I. ( Skills in Presentation. ( Introduction to Programming (Java). Spring Term : ( Molecular Structure. ( Structural Bioinformatics (Quanta). ( Logic and Learning. ( Molecular Aspects of Disease (essay). ( Numerical Skills II. ( Transferable Skills I. ( Perl Programming. Student Project I - "Three dimensional visualisation of conserved active site residues within catalase." - Poster presentation. Student Project II - "Salmon stock separation using Kohonen Neural Network techniques". Description : ----------- A large data-set of salmon scale micro-photographs was made available from a PhD thesis. These had been classified by river locality and the aim of the project was to somehow train a neural network to classify an unknown scale upon presentation. The Kohonen neural network provides topographical clustering of classes - visually separating the inputs. Annuli are yearly bands which can be used to determine the age and locality of a specimen, an algorithm to detect and highlight annuli was devised. A data set of annuli was used to train the Kohonen neural network - and known scales were presented. The network could separate scales from two of the rivers (classes), but not the third. Student Project III (3 months) at UCL, London. : ------------------------------------------------ Project Title: "An online microarray database with data submission and retrieval facilities, extended with the addition of online clustering of user submitted data" Abstract from the project : "The sheer pace of oligo-nucleotide microarray data generation has dictated new demands on computer hardware, not just in terms of processing and analysis, but also storage and accessibility. The diverse medium of the Internet offers new prospects for centralised data repositories, online clustering of expression data, and information dissemination of academic progress in microarray technologies. This project offers an Internet-based microarray resource consisting of a MySQL database with submission and retrieval facilities, extended with an online analysis facility offering all the functionality of Gavin Sherlock's XCluster (a UNIX command line microarray clustering program). It is the only Internet facility currently which offers the important SOM and K-means clustering methods." This project was awarded 72%. PDF available on request. Supervisor quote: "Jeremy has created a micro-array database that will not only be a valuable resource for our own data management and analysis, but will provide access for the general community and a convenient and accessible format. Jeremy's efforts may well influence the further development of micro-array databases, and he achieved these results with very little input and guidance. A very good performance" - Professor D. Goldstein Supervisor, UCL. RELEVANT SKILLS --------------- Talented Object Oriented Programmer ----------------------------------- C++ --- Fluent - QT3 on Linux/GCC 2.96 application development. A recent 3 month project in my spare time has been the design and realisation of a Kohonen neural network in C++.

After considering e-value does the size of the protein matter in the multiple alignment...say for example i have a query sequence of 200 aa's and get a match with a protein of 800 aa's, should I edit out the unrelated aa for an alignment or leave them in?Or doesn't it matter?

The full discussion thread should be included below. Basically I Asked about a full MPI paralleled version of the BLAST application. The only response I have received so far is by the company MSC software that produces a package called MSC.LIFE. All I know so far is what I have learned from the sales brochure and a quick conversation with Dr. Landman. It appears that instead of a parallel version of BLAST, MSC has produced a full parallel suite of software which includes the BLAST application. Here is the webpage if you are interested. http://www.mscsoftware.com/hpc/lifesciences/life.cfm . I am in the unfortunate position of being a computer expert (use term loosely) trying like sin to learn enough Genetics/Biology to effectively make decisions and support the researchers in this field. That's the short of it so far. If anyone has any comments or questions give me a shout. Sometimes it's not a matter of what you know, but who you know.

SCIENCE NEWS =========================================================================== -Different Parts of Brain Handle Fantasy & Reality http://www.bio.com/Redirectors/LinkRedirect03_27.jhtml?link=1 The ability to recognize objects in the real world is handled by different parts of the brain than those that allow us to imagine what the world is like. That is the result of a brain mapping experiment published in the March 28 issue of the journal Neuron. -Animals Use Scent to Determine Identity http://www.bio.com/Redirectors/LinkRedirect03_27.jhtml?link=2 The tiny Belding's ground squirrels appear to be "kissing". Instead, they are sniffing to analyze secretions from facial scent glands, hoping to learn from the complex odor bouquet who is family and who's not. More remarkably, they are determining in a matter of seconds precisely who is close-enough kin to risk their lives helping -- and perhaps even whether they are too closely related to for mating. -Mammalian Protein Resembles Snake Venom Toxin http://www.bio.com/Redirectors/LinkRedirect03_27.jhtml?link=3 Scientists have found that a protein resembling snake venom neurotoxin modulates the sensitivity of specific receptors in the brain that are targets of nicotine, the primary addictive drug in tobacco. The researchers say that the protein, lynx1, may be a new tool with which to probe how nicotine and other drugs activate ?pleasure centers? of the brain. -Forging a Link Between Brain and Bone http://www.bio.com/Redirectors/LinkRedirect03_27.jhtml?link=4 The adipose-derived hormone leptin is well known for its influence on feeding behavior. Animals with genetic defects in leptin signaling become obese when supplied unlimited food. However, even when food supply is limited to prevent obesity, leptin still exerts profound effects on various organs, including the bones. -Mouse Protein Enhances Fruit Fly Memory http://www.bio.com/Redirectors/LinkRedirect03_27.jhtml?link=5 Researchers have found that they can enhance memory in fruit flies by boosting the level of a protein called PKM. The scientists could trigger memory enhancement in the flies by using either a fly or a mouse version of PKM. The study, published in the April issue of Nature Neuroscience, provides an important new clue about a fundamental mechanism of memory common to flies, humans, and most other animals. -Building a Better Mouse Cage http://www.bio.com/Redirectors/LinkRedirect03_27.jhtml?link=6 Mice have done a lot for biomedical research. Dr. Germain F. Rivard decided to do something for them. "I disliked Static and Ventilated micro isolator caging systems for the poor air quality and the bad air ventilation they provided to the mice. I decided to invent a completely new system that resolved all those problems cost-effectively."
