This paper presents two parallel formulations for the Barnes-Hut algorithm on the Cell architecture, which differ in tree distribution and construction phases of the algorithm. In the initial parallelization, the domains are dynamically partitioned and assigned to the synergistic processing elements (SPEs), and SPEs construct local trees of the sub-domains in parallel. The enhanced parallelization scheme provides better clustering of the particles by sequentially constructing the global tree of the entire work space in the power processing element (PPE) and by partitioning the tree into sub-trees that can fit in the Local Store. SPEs operate on the sub-tree data and construct local trees in parallel. Our experimental evaluation indicates that this application performs much faster on the Cell BE compared to the Intel Xeon based system. Specifically, our first and second methods on the Cell BE outperform Intel Xeon by a factor of 5.8 and 7.1 for 8192 particles, respectively. 相似文献

Corynebacterium callunae (NCIB 10338) grows faster on glutamate than ammonia when used as sole nitrogen sources. The levels of glutamine synthetase (GS; EC 6.3.1.2) and glutamate synthase (GOGAT; EC 1.4.1.13) of C. callunae were found to be influenced by the nitrogen source. Accordingly, the levels of GS and GOGAT activities were decreased markedly under conditions of ammonia excess and increased under low nitrogen conditions. In contrast, glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH; EC 1.4.1.4) activities were not significantly affected by the type or the concentration of the nitrogen source supplied. The carbon source in the growth medium could also affect GDH, GS and GOGAT levels. Of the carbon sources tested in the presence of 2 mM or 10 mM ammonium chloride as the nitrogen source pyruvate, acetate, fumarate and malate caused a decrease in the levels of all three enzymes as compared with glucose. GDH, GS and GOGAT levels were slightly influenced by aeration. Also, the enzyme levels varied with the growth phase. Methionine sulfoximine, an analogue of glutamine, markedly inhibited both the growth of C. callunae cells and the transferase activity of GS. The apparent K
m values of GDH for ammonia and glutamate were 17.2 mM and 69.1 mM, respectively. In the NADPH-dependent reaction of GOGAT, the apparent K
m values were 0.1 mM for -ketoglutarate and 0.22 mM for glutamine.Abbreviations GDH

We report a novel electrochemical biosensor for direct discrimination of d- and l-mandelic acid (d- and l-MA) in aqueous medium. The glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface was modified with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and γ-globulin (GLOB). Electrochemical characterization of the modified electrodes was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The modified electrode surfaces were also characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Electrochemical response of the prepared electrode (GCE/rGO/GLOB) for discrimination of d- and l-MA enantiomers was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and was compared with bare GCE in the concentration range of 2 to 10 mM. Whereas the bare GCE showed no electrochemical response for the MA enantiomers, the GCE/rGO/GLOB electrode exhibited direct and selective discrimination with different oxidation potential values of 1.47 and 1.71 V and weak reduction peaks at potential values of −1.37 and −1.48 V, respectively. In addition, electrochemical performance of the modified electrode was investigated in mixed solution of d- and l-MA. The results show that the produced electrode can be used as electrochemical chiral biosensor for MA. 相似文献

Different atomic point charge sets are obtained for the αR and C7.eq conformations of the alanine dipeptide by fitting the charges of each conformation to the respective ab initio electrostatic potential surfaces both individually and simultaneously, in both the united atom and the all-atom representations. Using these charge sets, the sensitivity of the relative conformational aqueous free energies to the atomic site charges is investigated. For this particular system, we find that the solute-water contributions to the conformational free energy differences have a rather weak dependence on site charges; the calculated intramolecular contributions, however, show a rather strong dependence on the atomic site charges. It is suggested that the calculated results for the alanine dipeptide using a single, simultaneously fit set of charges for both conformations are in better agreement with experiments than the calculations carried out with charges determined individually for each conformation. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Based on femtosecond time-resolved spectroscopy and single photon timing experiments, intramolecular photoinduced charge transfer has been investigated in two systems containing a peryleneimide chromophore (P) and thiophene (T) groups. The first compound bearing a single thiophene ring (PT1) is used as model and shows a behavior similar to P, studied previously, while in the compound with two thiophene rings attached (PT2) electron transfer from the thiophene donor to the peryleneimide acceptor is observed in benzonitrile. Femtosecond fluorescence upconversion and femtosecond transient absorption experiments in benzonitrile indicate that this ion-pair state formation occurs in 19 ps. This ion-pair state then decays with two time constants of 1400 and 820 ps, probably corresponding to different conformations of the thiophene rings. 相似文献

An intensive care unit (ICU)-based OXA-23-producing multiple-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDRAB) outbreak was detected between October 2005 and October 2006. A total of 47 patients were infected/colonized with the outbreak strain. Clinical data were available from 37 patients. The all-cause mortality rate among the patients exposed to the epidemic strain was 35% (13/37). The outbreak strain and the resistance determinants were characterized both by microbiological methods and by molecular techniques. Cloning and sequencing experiments identified ISAbaI-associated bla(oxa-23) on the chromosome. Screening of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter isolated from the ICU during the outbreak period with PCR identified 97 isolates as positive for the ISAbaI-bla(oxa-23) structure. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and plasmid analyses with selected nonrepetitive isolates revealed the clonality. Disk diffusion on cloxacillin-supplemented agar media and the real-time PCR experiments showed that outbreak isolates are overexpressing the ampC enzyme. This study highlights the occurrence of OXA-23-producing and ampC-overexpressing MDRAB in ICUs. 相似文献

Amphotericin B is a polyene macrolide antibiotic used to treat systemic fungal infections. Amphotericin B's chemotherapeutic action requires the formation of transmembrane channels, which are known to transmit monovalent ions. We have investigated the ion passage pathways through the pore of a realistic model structure of the channel and computed the associated thermodynamic properties. Our calculations combined the free energy computations using the Poisson equation with a continuum solvent model and the molecular simulations in which solvent molecules were present explicitly. It was found that there are no substantial structural barriers to a single sodium or chloride ion passage. Thermodynamic free energy calculations showed that the path along which the ions prefer to move is off center from the channel's central axis. In accordance with experiments, Monte Carlo molecular simulations established that sodium ions can pass through the pore. When it encounters a chloride anion in the channel, the sodium cation prefers to form a solvent-bridged pair configuration with the anion. 相似文献
