Tor Signaling in the Fungal Kingdom
… In organisms ranging from yeasts to humans, the Tor signaling pathway responds to nutrient-derived signals and orchestrates cell growth. While in the baker's yeast <italic>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</italic> Tor responds to nutrient-derived signals and orchestrates cell growth and proliferation, in …

The early Neolithic tor enclosures of Southwest Britain
Along with causewayed enclosures, the tor enclosures of Cornwall and Devon represent the earliest enclosure of large open spaces in Britain and are the earliest form of surviving non-funerary monument. Their importance is at least as great as that of causewayed enclosures, and it might be argued …

Application of the Tor Functor on Commutative R-Modules
… may be considered as generalizations of k-vector spaces. An element a∈A is a torsion element of a module A if there is a nonzerodivisor r∈R such that ra=0. For an arbitrary ring R if we take Q to be the localization of R with respect to the set of nonzerodivisors then we can show for any …

High-fidelity simulation of load balancing methods in Tor
… two novel performance improving algorithms for Tor using the Shadow simulation framework. The first is Tightrope, a path selection algorithm for improving the load balancing of Tor circuits across the Tor network. The second is using the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) scheme to accurately …

Charakterisierung von spontan phagenresistenten Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor Mutanten
… das O-Antigen der Serogruppe O1 den Phagenrezeptor darstellt. Zusätzlich wurden phagenresistente Mutanten des transluzenten O1 El Tor Inaba Stammes P27459 nach Inkubation mit einem lytischen K139-Derivat isoliert. Analysen des LPS-Laufverhaltens in Polyacrylamid-Gelen (PAA) zeigten, daß viele …

The role of TOR in regulation of Arabidopsis circadian oscillators
Plants possess internal circadian oscillators, containing a series of gene expression feedback loops. These oscillators enable plants to coordinate their biological processes with the light- dark cycles of the Earth. Arabidopsis circadian oscillators are entrained by internal and external cues, …

TOR NETWORK VIDEO FINGERPRINTING OVER RESIDENTIAL WI-FI AND CONGESTED NETWORK INTERFACES
Both ordinary, concerned citizens and malicious actors, such as extremist groups, use the Onion Router (Tor) to encrypt their web traffic and protect their online anonymity. This usage has led to an interest in attacks on Tor, such as video fingerprinting, which seeks to identify what video is …

Optimization of load balancing in anonymous dynamical networks with application to Tor
Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2025-05-01

Performance and security tradeoffs of provable website traffic fingerprinting defenses over Tor
… called BuFLO, or Buffered Fixed-Length Obfuscator, that provides strong privacy guarantees at the expense of high overhead. Orthogonal to these defenses, the popular Tor anonymity network provides some protection against these attacks but is nonetheless susceptible. In this dissertation, we …

Investigation of the Role of TOR and Nutrient Restriction on Lifespan of Arabidopsis thaliana
<p>The Target of Rapamycin (TOR) kinase is evolutionarily conserved and is a key regulator, controlling many cellular functions to promote survival and growth in all eukaryotes. Several model organisms have indicated a relationship between TOR signaling and life expectancy, such as yeast, fruit …

Modulation of plant growth by day length dependent regulation of the TOR signaling pathway
… plant of day length duration (photoperiod). The TOR (Target of Rapamycin) kinase pathway is a central hub where cellular energy levels are perceived and translated into specific growth responses across kingdoms. In plants, the TOR pathway has been associated with rapid growing tissue including …

Measuring the impact of site configurations on site fingerprinting over the web and Tor
… mechanisms or anonymity systems, such as the Tor network. In this thesis, we examine how changes to a site’s configuration (i.e., the size of the site, site content, hosting strategies, etc.) can influence an adversary’s ability to successfully fingerprint a user’s visit to a site over the web …

Inactivation of Tor Proteins Affects the Dynamics of Endocytic Proteins in Early Stage of Endocytosis
<p>Tor2 is an activator of the Rom2/Rho1 pathway that regulates α-factor internalization. Since the recruitment of endocytic proteins such as actin binding proteins and the amphiphysins precedes the internalization of α-factor, I hypothesized that loss of Tor function leads to an alteration in the …

Insulin and TOR pathways regulate cellular and organismal growth through the myc oncogene in Drosophila
… its role in glucose and lipid import, nutrient storage, and translation of RNAs implicated in ribosome biogenesis (Vanhaesebroeck et al. 2001). Moreover several lines of evidence implicate this pathway as a causal factor in cancer (Sale, 2008; Zeng and Yee 2007; Hursting et al., 2007; Chan et …

The Application of Laser Technology for Railroad Top of Rail (TOR) Friction Modifier Detection and Measurements
… devices, such as independent lasers and detectors, are examined in a comprehensive parametric study to determine the most suitable configuration for a prototype with adequate third-body detection. A prototype is constructed considering parameters such as sunlight contamination, vibrations, and …

Application of Optical Detection Methods for Top-of-Rail (TOR) Lubricity Evaluation on a Moving Platform for Revenue Service Track
… in which the Top-of-Rail Friction Modifiers (TORFM) and flange grease both spread down rail and eventually wear away. This literature review also highlights previous research in the field of rail lubrication and the benefits that rail lubricants, specifically TORFM, provide for the railroads. …

Characterization of metabolomic dynamics in synchronized Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cell cultures and the impact of TOR inhibition on cell cycle, proliferation and growth
… Ser/Thr protein kinase “Target of Rapamycin” (TOR) has emerged as a major signaling node that integrates the sensing of numerous growth signals to the coordinated regulation of cellular metabolism and growth. Although the TOR signaling pathway has been widely studied in heterotrophic organisms, …

The localization of mTORC1 signaling
… as being coordinated by the Target of Rapamycin (TOR) Pathway. TOR is a serine/threonine kinase that resides in two distinct protein complexes which in mammals are referred to as mTORC1 and mTORC2. While significant emphasis has been placed on defining which pathways TOR controls and on how TOR …
