Art (Fine arts, Performing arts)

 

Prompt 1

Foreign trade of ideas, goods, and culture has been a driving force throughout Japanese history. Provide an example of one foreign exchange that significantly affected the landscape of Japanese history. Choose two objects and describe origin and the means by which they affected Japanese culture. How did this foreign influence and exchange affect the art, architecture, and/or craft that we see in Japan? (400 words minimum)

Prompt 2

Why is it difficult, and problematic, to describe the arts of Asia as a unified whole? Please provide an example of art from two regions that we covered in class to illustrate your answer and describe in detail. (400 words minimum)

Sample Solution

Art (Fine arts, Performing arts)

It is difficult to describe the arts of Asia as a unified whole. There are many ways to define the geographical region of Asia. For the purpose of this subject guide, it encompasses China, japan, Korea and Mongolia; south Asia, which include the Indian subcontinent; central Asia which includes Tibet; and Southeast Asia encompassing Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. The art and culture of East Asia are unified by powerful philosophical schools of thought and linguistic systems such as Confucianism, Ne-Confucianism, the classical Chinese language, Daoism, Shintoism, and Shamanism. The traditional arts of the Indian subcontinent were made mostly to serve its indigenous religions, notably Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. Tibet and its art, largely based on Vajrayana Buddhism, are becoming increasingly better known as Tibetan Buddhism. Southeast Asia has diverse artistic traditions influenced by Animism, Theravada Buddhism, Islam, Christianity and Hinduism.

After the entry of the virus, the capsid frees viral RNA into the cytoplasm. This is by all accounts regulated by T-cell receptor-interacting molecule 5, a protein that may limit viral replication by repressing the amount of capsid, which can be freed into the cytoplasm (Arhel, 2010; Pertel et al., 2011). Two molecules of the viral genomic RNA and different proteins that are required for replication and integration are found in the viral capsid.

The viral polymerase executes the Reverse transcription. Reverse transcriptase, equipped for using two distinct templates. At first it uses the genomic viral RNA to synthesize a single stranded DNA, then reverse transcriptase uses it as a template to synthesize a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) (Fig. 1) (Zucker et al., 2001). The viral genomic RNA by the activity of RNase is degraded which is presented in the reverse transcriptase enzyme, subsequently permitting the sdDNA molecule to be used for dsDNA synthesis as a template (Zucker et al., 2001).

Afterwards of the reverse transcription, viral double-stranded DNA is associated in the preintegration complex. It is known that the preintegration complex is flexible and that its viral and cellular protein composition differs during its way toward the nucleus (Arhel, 2010). The transportation of the reintegration complex to the nuclear membrane is considered to be interceded through the TNPO3 nuclear pore (Zaitseva et al., 2009; Arhel, 2010; Ocwieja et al., 2011). As soon as in the nucleus, the viral DNA is fastened to the chromatin by the activity of a cell protein, lens epithelium-inferred development variable/p75 (Van Maele et al., 2006). In spite of the fact that integration happens at random process in the cell genome, it has been demonstrated that HIV DNA is fastened to less condensed chromatin region (Brady et al., 2009; Ocwieja et al., 2011).
