Abstract
Double-spin asymmetries and absolute cross sections were measured at large Bjorken x (0.25≤x≤0.90), in both the deep-inelastic and resonance regions, by scattering longitudinally polarized electrons at beam energies of 4.7 and 5.9 GeV from a transversely and longitudinally polarized (3)He target. In this dedicated experiment, the spin structure function g(2)((3)He) was determined with precision at large x, and the neutron twist-3 matrix element d(2)(n) was measured at ⟨Q(2)⟩ of 3.21 and 4.32 GeV(2)/c(2), with an absolute precision of about 10(-5). Our results are found to be in agreement with lattice QCD calculations and resolve the disagreement found with previous data at ⟨Q(2)⟩=5 GeV(2)/c(2). Combining d(2)(n) and a newly extracted twist-4 matrix element f(2)(n), the average neutron color electric and magnetic forces were extracted and found to be of opposite sign and about 30 MeV/fm in magnitude.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of the target-normal single-spin asymmetry in deep-inelastic scattering from the inclusive reaction 3)He(↑)(e,e')X on a polarized (3)He gas target. Assuming time-reversal invariance, this asymmetry is strictly zero in the Born approximation but can be nonzero if two-photon-exchange contributions are included. The experiment, conducted at Jefferson Lab using a 5.89 GeV electron beam, covers a range of 1.7<W<2.9 GeV, 1.0<Q(2)<4.0 GeV(2) and 0.16<x<0.65. Neutron asymmetries were extracted using the effective nucleon polarization and measured proton-to-(3)He cross-section ratios. The measured neutron asymmetries are negative with an average value of (-1.09±0.38)×10(-2) for invariant mass W>2 GeV, which is nonzero at the 2.89σ level. Our measured asymmetry agrees both in sign and magnitude with a two-photon-exchange model prediction that uses input from the Sivers transverse momentum distribution obtained from semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering.

Abstract
The Q(weak) experiment has measured the parity-violating asymmetry in ep elastic scattering at Q(2)=0.025(GeV/c)(2), employing 145 μA of 89% longitudinally polarized electrons on a 34.4 cm long liquid hydrogen target at Jefferson Lab. The results of the experiment's commissioning run, constituting approximately 4% of the data collected in the experiment, are reported here. From these initial results, the measured asymmetry is A(ep)=-279±35 (stat) ± 31 (syst) ppb, which is the smallest and most precise asymmetry ever measured in ep scattering. The small Q(2) of this experiment has made possible the first determination of the weak charge of the proton Q(W)(p) by incorporating earlier parity-violating electron scattering (PVES) data at higher Q(2) to constrain hadronic corrections. The value of Q(W)(p) obtained in this way is Q(W)(p)(PVES)=0.064±0.012, which is in good agreement with the standard model prediction of Q(W)(p)(SM)=0.0710±0.0007. When this result is further combined with the Cs atomic parity violation (APV) measurement, significant constraints on the weak charges of the up and down quarks can also be extracted. That PVES+APV analysis reveals the neutron's weak charge to be Q(W)(n)(PVES+APV)=-0.975±0.010.

Abstract
We report on parity-violating asymmetries in the nucleon resonance region measured using inclusive inelastic scattering of 5-6 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons off an unpolarized deuterium target. These results are the first parity-violating asymmetry data in the resonance region beyond the Δ(1232). They provide a verification of quark-hadron duality-the equivalence of the quark- and hadron-based pictures of the nucleon-at the (10-15)% level in this electroweak observable, which is dominated by contributions from the nucleon electroweak γZ interference structure functions. In addition, the results provide constraints on nucleon resonance models relevant for calculating background corrections to elastic parity-violating electron scattering measurements.

Abstract
The parity-violating cross-section asymmetry in the elastic scattering of polarized electrons from unpolarized protons has been measured at a four-momentum transfer squared Q2 = 0.624 GeV2 and beam energy E(b) = 3.48 GeV to be A(PV) = -23.80 ± 0.78(stat) ± 0.36(syst) parts per million. This result is consistent with zero contribution of strange quarks to the combination of electric and magnetic form factors G(E)(s) + 0.517G(M)(s) = 0.003 ± 0.010(stat) ± 0.004(syst) ± 0.009(ff), where the third error is due to the limits of precision on the electromagnetic form factors and radiative corrections. With this measurement, the world data on strange contributions to nucleon form factors are seen to be consistent with zero and not more than a few percent of the proton form factors.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of the double-spin asymmetry A{LT} for charged pion electroproduction in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic electron scattering on a transversely polarized {3}He target. The kinematics focused on the valence quark region, 0.16<x<0.35 with 1.4<Q{2}<2.7 GeV{2}. The corresponding neutron A{LT} asymmetries were extracted from the measured {3}He asymmetries and proton over {3}He cross section ratios using the effective polarization approximation. These new data probe the transverse momentum dependent parton distribution function g{1T}{q} and therefore provide access to quark spin-orbit correlations. Our results indicate a positive azimuthal asymmetry for π{-} production on {3}He and the neutron, while our π{+} asymmetries are consistent with zero.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of target single spin asymmetries in the semi-inclusive (3)He(e,e'π(±))X reaction on a transversely polarized target. The experiment, conducted at Jefferson Lab using a 5.9 GeV electron beam, covers a range of 0.16 < x < 0.35 with 1.4 < Q(2) < 2.7 GeV(2). The Collins and Sivers moments were extracted from the azimuthal angular dependence of the measured asymmetries. The π(±) Collins moments for (3)He are consistent with zero, except for the π(+) moment at x = 0.35, which deviates from zero by 2.3σ. While the π(-) Sivers moments are consistent with zero, the π(+) Sivers moments favor negative values. The neutron results were extracted using the nucleon effective polarization and measured cross section ratios of proton to (3)He, and are largely consistent with the predictions of phenomenological fits and quark model calculations.

Abstract
Intensive theoretical and experimental efforts over the past decade have aimed at explaining the discrepancy between data for the proton electric to magnetic form factor ratio, G(E)/G(M), obtained separately from cross section and polarization transfer measurements. One possible explanation for this difference is a two-photon-exchange contribution. In an effort to search for effects beyond the one-photon-exchange or Born approximation, we report measurements of polarization transfer observables in the elastic H(e[over →],e(')p[over →]) reaction for three different beam energies at a Q(2)=2.5 GeV(2), spanning a wide range of the kinematic parameter ε. The ratio R, which equals μ(p)G(E)/G(M) in the Born approximation, is found to be independent of ε at the 1.5% level. The ε dependence of the longitudinal polarization transfer component P(ℓ) shows an enhancement of (2.3±0.6)% relative to the Born approximation at large ε.

Abstract
Among the most fundamental observables of nucleon structure, electromagnetic form factors are a crucial benchmark for modern calculations describing the strong interaction dynamics of the nucleon's quark constituents; indeed, recent proton data have attracted intense theoretical interest. In this Letter, we report new measurements of the proton electromagnetic form factor ratio using the recoil polarization method, at momentum transfers Q2=5.2, 6.7, and 8.5 GeV2. By extending the range of Q2 for which G(E)(p) is accurately determined by more than 50%, these measurements will provide significant constraints on models of nucleon structure in the nonperturbative regime.

Abstract
Immunodeficiency, centromeric region instability, and facial anomalies (ICF), a rare recessive chromosome instability syndrome, involves the loss of DNA methyltransferase 3B activity and the consequent hypomethylation of a small portion of the genome. We demonstrate for the first time that ICF cells are strongly hypersensitive to a genotoxic agent, namely, ionizing radiation. However, unlike cell lines from patients with ataxia telangiectasia or Nijmegen breakage syndrome, chromosome instability syndromes also associated with unusual sensitivity to ionizing radiation, ICF cells did not show any deficiencies in their cell cycle checkpoints. ICF lymphoblastoid cell lines demonstrated increased apoptosis, long-term cell cycle arrest, and loss of viability in clonogenicity assays after irradiation compared to analogous normal cell lines. Also, the ICF cell lines were subject to high frequencies of rapid non-apoptotic cell death upon irradiation but not to abnormally high levels of radiation-induced, cytogenetically detectable chromosome abnormalities. ICF-associated undermethylation of some regulatory gene(s) might lead to an exaggerated response to radiation-induced breaks in DNA yielding increased rates of cell death and irreversible cell cycle arrest. As a defense against their frequent spontaneous breaks in chromosomes 1 and 16, ICF patients may be abnormally prone to chromosome break-induced apoptosis, non-apoptotic cell death, and permanent cell cycle arrest so as to minimize the number of cycling cells with spontaneous rearrangements. A similarly increased cell death and cycle-arrest response to chromosome breaks due to cancer-linked DNA hypomethylation might occur during carcinogenesis.

Abstract
The ICF syndrome (immunodeficiency, centromeric region instability, facial anomalies) is a unique DNA methylation deficiency disease diagnosed by an extraordinary collection of chromosomal anomalies specifically in the vicinity of the centromeres of chromosomes 1 and 16 (Chr1 and Chr16) in mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes. These aberrations include decondensation of centromere-adjacent (qh) heterochromatin, multiradial chromosomes with up to 12 arms, and whole-arm deletions. We demonstrate that lymphoblastoid cell lines from two ICF patients exhibit these Chr1 and Chr16 anomalies in 61% of the cells and continuously generate 1qh or 16qh breaks. No other consistent chromosomal abnormality was seen except for various telomeric associations, which had not been previously noted in ICF cells. Surprisingly, multiradials composed of arms of both Chr1 and Chr16 were favored over homologous associations and cells containing multiradials with 3 or >4 arms almost always displayed losses or gains of Chr1 or Chr16 arms from the metaphase. Our results suggest that decondensation of 1qh and 16qh often leads to unresolved Holliday junctions, chromosome breakage, arm missegregation, and the formation of multiradials that may yield more stable chromosomal abnormalities, such as translocations. These cell lines maintained the abnormal hypomethylation in 1qh and 16qh seen in ICF tissues. The ICF-specific hypomethylation occurs in only a small percentage of the genome, e.g., ICF brain DNA had 7% less 5-methylcytosine than normal brain DNA. The ICF lymphoblastoid cell lines, therefore, retain not only the ICF-specific pattern of chromosome rearrangements, but also of targeted DNA hypomethylation. This hypomethylation of heterochromatic DNA sequences is seen in many cancers and may predispose to chromosome rearrangements in cancer as well as in ICF.

Abstract
The ICF (immunodeficiency, centromeric instability and facial abnormalities) syndrome is a rare recessive disease characterized by immunodeficiency, extraordinary instability of certain heterochromatin regions and mutations in the gene encoding DNA methyltransferase 3B. In this syndrome, chromosomes 1 and 16 are demethylated in their centromere-adjacent (juxtacentromeric) heterochromatin, the same regions that are highly unstable in mitogen-treated ICF lymphocytes and B cell lines. We investigated the methylation abnormalities in CpG islands of B cell lines from four ICF patients and their unaffected parents. Genomic DNA digested with a CpG methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme was subjected to two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Most of the restriction fragments were identical in the digests from the patients and controls, indicating that the methylation abnormality in ICF is restricted to a small portion of the genome. However, ICF DNA digests prominently displayed multicopy fragments absent in controls. We cloned and sequenced several of the affected DNA fragments and found that the non-satellite repeats D4Z4 and NBL2 were strongly hypomethylated in all four patients, as compared with their unaffected parents. The high degree of methylation of D4Z4 that we observed in normal cells may be related to the postulated role of this DNA repeat in position effect variegation in facio- scapulohumeral muscular dystrophy and might also pertain to abnormal gene expression in ICF. In addition, our finding of consistent hypomethylation and overexpression of NBL2 repeats in ICF samples suggests derangement of methylation-regulated expression of this sequence in the ICF syndrome.
