Mining for specialized metabolism genes in Red Sea brine pool prokaryotic metagenomes for antibacterial and anticancer activities by Ziko, Laila

“…A subset of specialized metabolites (SMs) produced by microbes confer activities of pharmaceutical importance, such as antibacterial and anticancer effects, and are coded by specialized metabolism gene clusters (SMGCs) in the organisms’ genomes. …”

Identification and preliminary characterization of the 2,5-diphenyloxazole biosynthetic pathway in streptomyces polyantibioticus SPRT by Kemp, Ian Kyle

“…To determine whether the hypothesis pertaining to the DPO biosynthetic pathway was correct, initial efforts were made to identify the genes coding for benzoic acid synthesis and the DPO NRPS in the S. polyantibioticus SPRT genome using PCR amplification, Southern hybridization and sequencing. …”

Towards a social constructivist game-based learning model: a case of using digital games in sports studies in South Africa by Titus, Simone

“…Qualitative data were captured, coded and analysed using Atlas TI. The findings of the quantitative data reveal that there are distinct group preferences, which are linked to historical legacies of segregation, including socio-geographic containment. …”

Language and the opportunity to learn science in bilingual classrooms in the Eastern Cape, South Africa by Probyn, Margaret Joan

“…The lesson transcripts were analysed using socio-cultural discourse analysis and this included coding and content analysis to arrive at patterns in the data, which were exemplified by extracts from the data; some of these were of necessity fairly long, so as to take account of both the content and language of the lessons and to trace how ideas were developed over time, within and across lessons, though language. …”

Conceptual understanding, career aspiration, self-efficacy and experience of third-year chemistry students by Dagogo, Ibiye Tonye

“…The qualitative data from the questionnaires and interviews were subjected to inductive thematic analysis, which allows the themes to emerge from the study without applying a pre-existing coding scheme. My original contribution to knowledge as it relates to students’ persistence is that persistence depends on a number of inter-related factors, which are different for individual students. …”

Creating and analysing an African pan-genome by Bourn, Jessica Jean

“…For each group, nucleotide sequences that were absent from the human reference genome were assembled and extracted, which resulted in the identification of 43.37 Mbp of non-redundant non-reference genomic sequence and 31 novel predicted protein-coding genes from African individuals. Alignment to other pan-genome sequences, whole genomes from different human populations, and the complete telomere-to-telomere human genome validated a large portion of the sequences as nonreference and confirmed that the dataset contained sequences specific to African populations. …”

Investigation of the effects of image compression on the geometric quality of digital protogrammetric imagery by Kwabena-Forkuo, Eric

“…The JPEG standard algorithm &Us into three general categories: the baseline sequential process that provides a simple and efficient algorithm for most image coding applications, the extended DCT-based process that allows the baseline system to satisfy a broader range of applications, and an independent lossless process for application demanding that type of compression. …”
