As Hi-C technologies have developed, attempts have been made to model the 3D structure of the genome. These tools are Chrom3D [1] and miniMDS [2], which can be used to model a 3D genome structure based on Hi-C data. There have been several studies to map UV and cisplatin-induced DNA damages on human cell lines. The effects of chromatin states in damage formation were well established. However, the effect of 3D structure of the genome on DNA damage formation remains unclear. Here we used Hi-C data from HeLa cells to produce a 3D genome model. Then we checked UV damage distribution on these created models. Moreover, we have created simulated UV damage datasets. Simulated datasets have the same nucleotide content as true reads, but they are randomly selected from input DNA sequencing. Because damage-seq reads have a certain nucleotide bias due to the damage site, by using these simulated reads we normalized the true damage signal. Hence, eliminating the nucleotide context bias. Since HeLa cells are cancer cell-line, there could be some chromosomal defects in our data that can affect our results. To eliminate such effects if there were any, we generated simulated datasets using input DNA sequencing. When we checked the damage distribution of these simulated datasets, (6-4)PP showed a decrease in damage towards the outer parts of the nucleus from its center. However, CPD damage distribution was more uniform throughout the nucleus. Furthermore, we normalized the true damage values with our new simulated datasets (from input DNA sequencing) and checked expected/observed damage ratio distribution throughout the nucleus. To the best of our knowledge there has been a single study addressing the effect of 3D genome structure on UV-induced mutagenesis [3], implying that outer regions of the genome are more likely to be damaged compared to the center region. Our observed/expected damage values also show that UV damage increases, both (6-4)PP and CPD, towards the outer regions of the nucleus.

Effects of 3D Registration on Subspace Based Face Recognition Methods
USTUN, Bulent; Halıcı, Uğur; ULUSOY PARNAS, İLKAY (2008-04-22)
The effect of 3D registation is examined through various subspace based recognition algorithms. Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm and its variations are used for registration and Eigenface, Fisherface, NMF (Nonnegative Matrix Factorization) and ICA (Independent Component Analysis) are used for recognition. It is observed that ICP and its variations converges to the place on the database FRGC v. 1 used. Among the recognition algorithms Fisher-face and ICA are performed better than the others.
Effect of production parameters on porosity and hole properties in laser sintering rapid prototyping process
İlkgün, Özkan; Erdal Erdoğmuş, Merve; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2005)
Selective laser sintering (SLS) is a rapid prototyping method in which three-dimensional objects are constructed by sintering thin layers of a variety of powdered materials via laser beam. In SLS, as in most other Rapid Prototyping methods, the produced parts exhibit varying degrees of intrinsic porosity due to the discrete nature of layer-by-layer production. Selective scanning and discrete bonding of individual particles or clusters of particles impart local porosity, which is mostly an undesired trait as...
Effect of scaffold architecture and BMP-2/BMP-7 delivery on in vitro bone regeneration
Yilgor, Pinar; Sousa, Rui A.; Reis, Rui L.; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2010-11-01)
The aim of this study was to develop 3-D tissue engineered constructs that mimic the in vivo conditions through a self-contained growth factor delivery system. A set of nanoparticles providing the release of BMP-2 initially followed by the release of BMP-7 were incorporated in poly(epsilon-caprolactone) scaffolds with different 3-D architectures produced by 3-D plotting and wet spinning. The release patterns were: each growth factor alone, simultaneous, and sequential. The orientation of the fibers did not ...

Nowadays researchers have been considered to exploring the new high-k materials to be used in state of art CMOS technology to replace conversional SiO2 dielectrics. Various high-k dielectrics materials HfO2 have been considered, but the HfO2 has reported as one of the most promising materials among them. In addition, crystallization and morphological variations change the electrical performance of the device. Hence we aim to study effects of annealing temperature on the Structural, chemical and electrical c...
Effect of chirality on the stability of carbon nanotubes : Molecular-dynamics simulations
Erkoc, S; Malcıoğlu, Osman Barış (2001-07-01)
The effect of chirality on the structural stability of single-wall carbon nanotubes have been investigated by performing molecular-dynamics computer simulations. Calculations have been realized by using an empirical many-body potential energy function for carbon. It has been found that carbon nanotube in chiral structure is more stable under heat treatment relative to zigzag and armchair models. The diameter of the tubes is slightly enlarged under heat treatment.
