Optimalizující skriptovatelný generátor map krajiny / Optimizing scriptable generator of terrain maps

Zábský, Matěj January 2015 (has links)
The goal of this thesis is to develop a procedural terrain height map generator programmable using a Turing complete scripting language. The generator must allow rendering of partial maps by generating arbitrary rectangular region of the map described by any script. The thesis explains why this means the traditional script execution model won't work in this case and proposes a novel two stage model, which executes the scripts in two stages - a simulation stage and a rendering stage.

Klonierung und funktionelle Analyse des Aktinreorganisators p150-Spir / Cloning and functional analysis of the p150-Spir actin reorganizator

Otto, Ines Maria January 2001 (has links) (PDF)
Die c-Jun-N-terminale Kinase (JNK), ein Mitglied der Familie der MAP-Kinasen (Mi-togen Activated Protein Kinases), wirkt als signalübertragender Effektor, der den klei-nen GTPasen der Rho–Familie Rac und Cdc42 nachgeschaltet ist. Rho-GTPasen spielen eine Schlüsselrolle in der Regulation von zellulären Aktinstrukturen und steuern Prozesse in der Zelle, die Änderungen der Aktinstruktur erfordern, wie z.B. Änderungen der Zellmorphologie, Zellmigration, Wachstum und Differenzierung. Genetische Studien an der Fruchtfliege Drosophila melanogaster konnten eine Rolle des Drosophila-JNK-Homologs DJNK(basket) in der Regulation von Zellbewegungen und Zellmorphologieänderungen während der Drosophila-Embryogenese zeigen. Inhibierung der Funktion von DJNK auf allen Stufen der DJNK-Signaltransduktions-kaskade führt zum sogenannten dorsal closure-Phänotyp der Embryonen mit fehlender Zellstreckung und fehlender Migration dorsaler Epithelzellen. Der molekulare Mechanismus, mit dessen Hilfe Rho-GTPasen Aktinstrukturen regu-lieren und wie JNK Einfluss auf Zellmorphologie und Zellbewegung nimmt, ist bisher nicht bekannt. Die Identifizierung neuer, mit JNK interagierender Proteine könnte zum besseren Verständnis der Funktion und Regulation von JNK führen. In dieser Arbeit wurde ein Yeast-Two-Hybrid-Screen mit dem Drosophila-Homolog DJNK/basket durchgeführt, der zur Entdeckung des Drosophila-Proteins p150-Spir als Interaktionspartner von DJNK führte. Der C-terminus des p150-Spir-Proteins enthält eine JNK-Interaktionsdomäne, ein DEJL-Motiv (Docking Site for Erk and JNK, LxL) und wird von aktivierten JNK-Proteinkinasen phosphoryliert. p150-Spir ist ein Multi-Domänen-Protein, das in seiner aminoterminalen Hälfte eine Aufeinanderfolge von vier WH2-Domänen (Wiskott Aldrich Homology Domain 2) enthält. WH2-Domänen binden monomeres Aktin, Proteine mit WH2 Domänen, wie z.B. WASP oder WAVE sind Aktinreorganisatoren. Die transiente Überexpression von p150-Spir in NIH3T3-Mausfibroblasten führt ebenfalls zu einer Aktinreorganisation. Eine weitere Domäne in p150-Spir ist eine modifizierte FYVE-Zinkfinger-Struktur (mFYVE) im zentralen Bereich des Proteins, die für die subzelluläre Lokalisation von p150-Spir von Bedeutung ist. Mutationen, welche die Zinkfingerstruktur zerstören, führen bei Überexpression in NIH3T3-Zellen zu einer zytoplasmatischen Lokalisation der mutierten p150-Spir-Proteine, während Wildtyp-p150-Spir perinukleär akkumuliert. Spir-Proteine sind evolutionär hoch konserviert. Es konnten Spir-ähnliche Sequenzen auf den humanen Chromosomen 16 und 18, in der Maus und in der Seescheide Ciona savignyi gefunden werden. Der höchste Grad an Konservierung besteht im Bereich der funktionellen Proteindomänen. Ein in allen Spir-Proteinen ent-haltenes, als Spir-Box bezeichnetes hoch konserviertes Sequenzmotiv befindet sich unmittelbar vor dem mFYVE-Zinkfinger. Die Spir-Box zeigt Strukturverwandschaft zur Rab-GTPase-Bindungsregion in Rabphilin 3A, einem Protein, das ebenfalls eine FYVE-Domäne besitzt. Rab-GTPasen sind wie FYVE-Domänenproteine in die Regulation zellulärer Vesikeltransportprozesse involviert. Das Vorhandensein beider Do-mänen in p150-Spir deutet auf eine Rolle des Proteins in zellulären Transportprozes-sen hin. Ein denkbares Modell wäre, daß p150-Spir unter der Kontrolle von JNK-Signalen zelluläre Aktinstrukturen reguliert, die für Transportprozessse in der Zelle von Bedeutung sind; p150-Spir fungiert damit möglicherweise als direktes Bindeglied zwischen MAPK-Signaltransduktionskaskaden und dem Aktinzytoskelett. / Summary c-Jun-N-terminal kinases (JNKs) are members of the MAPK family (mitogen activated protein kinases) and act as downstream effectors of Rho family-GTPases, Rac and Cdc42. Rho family GTPases are involved in the regulation of cellular actin structures and control cellular processes which require remodelling of the actin skeleton, such as morphological changes, migration, growth and differentiation. A role for the Drosophila JNK-homolog DJNK/basket in the regulation of cell move-ment and cell shape changes during Drosophila embryogenesis arises from its func-tion in the process of dorsal closure. Inhibition of the DJNK-cascade results in a mu-tant phenotyp, where the dorsal elongation and migration of the epithelial cells fails. However, a direct link between JNK signaling and actin reorganization has not yet been established. A Yeast-Two-Hybrid-Screen using DJNK as a bait led to the discovery of the new Drosophila protein p150-Spir. p150-Spir is a multi-domain protein with a stretch of acidic amino acids, a cluster of 4 WH2-domains (Wiskott Aldrich Homology Domain 2), a Spir-Box and a modified FYVE zinc-finger motif (mFYVE). In addition, the C-terminus of p150-Spir harbors a docking site for ERK and JNK, LXL (DEJL-motif) and is phosphorylated by JNK in vitro and in vivo. When coexpressed with p150-Spir in NIH3T3 cells, JNK translocates to and colocalizes with p150-Spir at discrete spots around the nucleus. In its N-terminal part p150-Spir possesses 4 WH2-Domains. WH2-domains bind monomeric actin and WH2-family proteins, such as WASP and WAVE are involved in actin reorganization. We can show that in NIH3T3 mouse fibroblasts, p150-Spir co-localizes with F-actin and its overexpression induces clustering of filamentous actin around the nucleus. A modified FYVE zinc-finger structure (mFYVE) is located in the central region of the protein. FYVE-fingers mediate cell membrane localization of proteins. Disruption of the p150-Spir mFYVE-structure by deletion mutagenesis or cysteine/serine substitu-tions shows that the mFYVE-domain determines the subcellular localisation of p150-Spir. In contrast to the perinuclear distribution of the wild type p150-Spir, the mutated protein exhibits a uniform cytoplasmic distribution. Spir-family proteins are highly conserved among different species. Comparison of Drosophila p150-Spir sequences to EST data bases identified similar sequences in human (on chromosomes 16 and 18), mouse and the ascidian Ciona savignyi. A con-served sequence motif found in all Spir proteins - called Spir-Box - is located in the N-terminus, next to the mFYVE domain. Close inspection of the Spir-Box sequence revealed homology to the GTPase binding region of Rabphilin 3A, a FYVE domain containing protein which binds the small GTPase Rab3a. Rab-GTPases are involved in the regulation of cellular vesicle trafficking processes. The presence of a mFYVE domain in p150-Spir protein and a Spir-Box - a possible Rab-GTPase binding motif - suggests a potential function of Spir proteins in vesicel transport. In a possible model Spir initiates remodelling processes of the actin cytoskeleton, necessary for cellular transport processes under the control of JNK signals and thereby provides a direct link between MAPK-signaling and the actin cytoskeleton.
