Resistência Individual e Memórias Coletivas em Álbuns Fotográficos no Poço da Draga/Fortaleza-CE

A partir de uma ação de extensão intitulada Fotobiografias: a Fortaleza que se encontra em acervos fotográfico pessoais, buscamos refletir sobre como a partir de fotografias podemos desvelar as biografias individuais, mas também a biografia de uma cidade. A ação é realizada no Poço da Draga. Tomamos esse território a partir das fotografias que as pessoas guardam em suas casas e escutamos suas narrativas. As fotografias promovem aparições, evocam narrativas, acionam lembranças, interligam relações. Podemos tomar essas paisagens narrativas como patrimônios da cidade? Como podemos a partir da memória, refleti-las como “espaços da recordação”, que nos permitem repensar a própria leitura social, histórica e antropológica da cidade? Desta forma, partimos das narrativas de Dona Zenir, uma das moradoras mais antigas do lugar. A partir de suas narrativas e imagens ela nos leva às pessoas, às suas vivências, aproxima-se das vivências compartilhadas com outras mulheres, e costura, através da memória, o Poço da Draga à história de Fortaleza.Palavras-Chave: Biografias. Álbuns Fotográficos. Resistências urbanas. Patrimônio. INDIVIDUAL RESISTANCE and collective memories in Photographic albums in poço da Draga/Fortaleza-CE Abstract: Departing from na extension activity named Photobiographies: the Fortaleza that can be found in personal photographic archives, we aim to reflect about photographs can reveal not only individual biographies but also the biography of a city. The activity takes place in Poço da Draga. We approach this territory through photographs that people keep in their homes and the narratives they tell about them. The photographs evoke narratives, activate memories, interconnect relationships. Can we consider these narrative landscapes as heritage of Fortaleza? How can we think about them as “spaces of remebrance” that allow us to reconsider social, historical and anthropological readings of the city? We take as a starting point the narratives told by Dona Zenir, one of the oldest residents of Poço da Draga. Her narratives and images take us to people, their lives, bring us closer to the lived experiences shared with other women, entwining – through memory – Poço da Draga to the history of Fortaleza.Key words: Biographies.

Desenvolvimento de aplicativo destinado à classificação de soja: Relato de experiência

A extensão universitária reflete as ações empreendidas pela academia, alinhadas às demandas da comunidade, no sentido de proporcionar uma formação ampliada e cidadã. Neste sentido, o presente relato de experiência descreve as atividades de cunho extensionistas voltadas ao desenvolvimento de um aplicativo para dispositivo Android, com linguagem Java, cuja finalidade é disponibilizar ao produtor rural uma ferramenta para a classificação do grão soja durante o processo de comercialização, que possibilite um comparativo entre os resultados apurados pelo aplicativo com os advindos da empresa recebedora. O projeto foi desenvolvido no Instituto Federal Goiano – Campus Iporá, em Goiás, com foco tecnológico e participação de discentes do curso superior de Tecnologia em Análise e Desenvolvimento de Sistemas e sob orientação de profissionais das áreas de Ciências Agrárias, Ciências Sociais Aplicadas e Tecnologia da Informação. A proposta fundamenta-se em possibilitar ao produtor realizar a própria classificação da soja comercializada em tempo real, conforme os padrões legalmente instituídos por normativas do Ministério da Agricultura Pecuária e Abastecimento (MAPA), a fim de gerar uma base de dados específica, por lote, no ato da comercialização, reduzindo disparidades e prejuízos decorrentes. Palavras-chave: Atividade extensionista; Solução tecnológica; Agro 4.0 Development of application for soybeans classification: experience report Abstract: University extension programs reflect actions undertaken by the academy, following the community’s demands as well as providing comprehensive and civic education. To this degree, the present experience report describes an extension activity regarding developing a software tool to enable farmers to classify soybeans during the commercialization process and compare the results collected with the customer enterprises. The project was developed at the Instituto Federal Goiano – Campus Iporá, in Goiás, Brazil, focusing on technologies and the participation of higher education students from the Software Analysis and Development course, oriented by professionals from the Agricultural Sciences and Information Technology Applied Social Sciences areas. The software was developed in the programming language Java targeting execution on Android devices. Following the legal standards specified by the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture, Cattle and Supplying, the created software enables farmers to classify their commercialized soybeans in real-time, establishing a database organized by the product’s batch at the moment of the trading. In this way, the possible mismatch and loss resulting from the trade are reduced. Keywords: Extension activity; Technological solution; Agro 4.0

Akt Kinase Intervenes in Flavivirus Replication by Interacting with Viral Protein NS5

Arthropod-borne flaviviruses, such as Zika virus (ZIKV), Usutu virus (USUV), and West Nile virus (WNV), are a growing cause of human illness and death around the world. Presently, no licensed antivirals to control them are available and, therefore, search for broad-spectrum antivirals, including host-directed compounds, is essential. The PI3K/Akt pathway controls essential cellular functions involved in cell metabolism and proliferation. Moreover, Akt has been found to participate in modulating replication in different viruses including the flaviviruses. In this work we studied the interaction of flavivirus NS5 polymerases with the cellular kinase Akt. In vitro NS5 phosphorylation experiments with Akt showed that flavivirus NS5 polymerases are phosphorylated and co-immunoprecipitate by Akt. Polymerase activity assays of Ala- and Glu-generated mutants for the Akt-phosphorylated residues also indicate that Glu mutants of ZIKV and USUV NS5s present a reduced primer-extension activity that was not observed in WNV mutants. Furthermore, treatment with Akt inhibitors (MK-2206, honokiol and ipatasertib) reduced USUV and ZIKV titers in cell culture but, except for honokiol, not WNV. All these findings suggest an important role for Akt in flavivirus replication although with specific differences among viruses and encourage further investigations to examine the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway as an antiviral potential target.
