 Title: The Physiology of Literature: A.A. Ukhtomskii and The Principle of The Dominant Russian physiologist Aleksei Alekseevich Ukhtomskii played exceptional role in the development of Russian humanities in general and Russian literary studies in particular; of special interest is his significant influence on the early works of Mikhail Bakhtin. He discovered and introduced into the scientific circulation the dominant principle that has become a point of departure in developing different important concepts such as dominant, chronotope, dialogue and others. This thesis, in a way, is a genealogical recounting of early 20th century Russian literary theory in light of its associations with the work of Ukhtomskii and a demonstration how his ideas can be used in further literary studies.

The jealousy derives from the interaction of difference and comparison. It is mainly reflected in wealth, reputation, status and love. This study reveals what¡¦s the dominant strategy and who can survive in the society via game theory to analyze and describe the result of the interaction between a jealous one and his rival for wealth on the different levels of jealousy. It is found as below: (1).Whether the jealous person takes offensive action or not, he will receive the most harm or punishment; so it is a dominant strategy for him. (2). If someone tortures by themselves, he will suffer misery from jealousy; so it is a dominant strategy for him. (3). If the jealous person desires to catch up with his rivals via honest means, he will turn jealousy into competitive ability; as a result, those that have opposite intention will gradually be eliminated through competition. (4). If the jealous person defames, or even attacks his rivals, and attempts to benefit from them, it is happened that the extra return will make up for the cost based on jealousy; consequently it is a dominant strategy so that they will be replaced step by step.

In this thesis, I characterized the association of Arf4GDP with ER-Golgi intermediate compartment membranes. We confirmed that GDP-arrested Arf4 mutants associated with membranes irrespective of nature of tag or mutation. Recruitment appeared specific since loss of N-terminal myristoylation abolished binding. Surprisingly, mutations of residues unique to class II Arfs did not prevent recruitment of Arf4 to peripheral puncta. We then examined the failure of the GDP-arrested Arf4 mutant to disrupt Golgi structure. We identified residues R79 and E113 (likely involved in salt bridge interaction) only present in Arf1 and Arf5 as critical to the ability of their GDP-arrested mutants to disrupt Golgi structure. As predicted, introduction of these residues transformed Arf4GDP into a dominant negative mutant. Interestingly, overexpression of the putative ArfGDP receptor membrin prevented the effects of dominant negative Arf1 but not dominant negative Arf4. These results will facilitate identification of a novel Arf target critical to protein trafficking.
