A Study of English Translation Strategies of Subtitles of the Domestic Animated Film Chang’an from the Perspective of Eco-translatology

This article conducts an analysis and exploration of the English subtitles translation of the domestic animated film Chang’an from the perspective of eco-translatology.Taking three-dimensional transformation as the entry point,it analyzes the adaptation and selection of subtitle translators in the translation process from the dimensions of language,culture,and communication in Chang’an,aiming to enrich the practical analysis of eco-translatology and provide valuable insights and references for the theoretical construction and practical application of eco-translatology.This article enriches the practical analysis of eco-translatology and also validates to a certain extent the applicability of“three-dimensional”transformation.

Lack of transcriptional coordination between mitochondrial and nuclear oxidative phosphorylation genes in the presence of two divergent mitochondrial genomes

In most eukaryotes,oxidative phosphorylation(OXPHOS)is the main energy production process and it involves both mitochondrial and nuclear genomes.The close interaction between the two genomes is critical for the coordinated function of the OXPHOS process.Some bivalves show doubly uniparental inheritance(DUI)of mitochondria,where two highly divergent mitochondrial genomes,one inherited through eggs(F-type)and the other through sperm(M-type),coexist in the same individual.However,it remains a puzzle how nuclear OXPHOS genes coordinate with two divergent mitochondrial genomes in DUI species.In this study,we compared transcription,polymorphism,and synonymous codon usage in the mitochondrial and nuclear OXPHOS genes of the DUI species Ruditapes philippinarum using sex-and tissue-specific transcriptomes.Mitochondrial and nuclear OXPHOS genes showed different transcription profiles.Strong co-transcription signal was observed within mitochondrial(separate for F-and M-type)and within nuclear OXPHOS genes but the signal was weak or absent between mitochondrial and nuclear OXPHOS genes,suggesting that the coordination between mitochondrial and nuclear OXPHOS subunits is not achieved transcriptionally.McDonald-Kreitman and frequency-spectrum based tests indicated that M-type OXPHOS genes deviated significantly from neutrality,and that F-type and M-type OXPHOS genes undergo different selection patterns.Codon usage analysis revealed that mutation bias and translational selection were the major factors affecting the codon usage bias in different OXPHOS genes,nevertheless,translational selection in mitochondrial OXPHOS genes appears to be less efficient than nuclear OXPHOS genes.Therefore,we speculate that the coordination between OXPHOS genes may involve post-transcriptional/translational regulation.

On Subtitle Translation of Game of Thrones from the Perspective of Eco-translatology

HBO TV series–Game of Thrones has gone viral ever since its first release in 2011 and its soaring popularity among Chineseaudience has no doubt benefited from the"appropriate"E-C subtitles attached to it. This paper, through the analysis and discussion ofthe E-C subtitles of Game of Thrones from the perspective of Eco-translatology, demonstrates that the approach of Translation as Adap-tation and Selection(TAS) proves to be operational in subtitle translation, and gives further recommendations in the communicativetransformation of subtitle translation.
