Sso7d is a basic 7-kDa DNA-binding protein from Sulfolobus solfataricus, also endowed with ribonuclease activity. The protein consists of a double-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet, onto which an orthogonal triple-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet is packed, and of a small helical stretch at the C-terminus. Furthermore,…
Creation of an autologous heart valve by tissue engineering offers a promising approach to cardiac surgery. Although we have demonstrated successful formation of native valve analogous tissue in vitro, hemodynamic competence remains a serious problem. The aim of this study was to optimize in vitro formation of collage…
The realization of electrooptic coefficients leading to digital drive voltage levels is an important objective if polymeric electrooptic materials are to achieve significant commercial application. Polymeric materials characterized by electrooptic coefficients somewhat greater than those of the dominant commercial mat…
Summary Much of the Paris Basin is covered with loess, dominated by particles 2–50 μm in diameter, which has undergone strong pedogenesis. We have investigated the mineralogical changes that have accompanied the development of a Podzoluvisol in such material. Four silt‐size and two clay‐size fractions from five horizo…
Spark plasma sintering (SPS) was applied to the production of non-lead ferroelectric Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 ceramics. A powder compact of a calcined oxide mixture was embedded in a mixture of ZrO 2 and Sb-doped SnO 2 powders in a carbon die and heated for a very short duration under a constant current of 450 A. This process l…
A series of SiC‐AlN compositions of 0, 10, 25, 50, 75, 90, and 100 mol% AlN were hot pressed at 2100°C for a 1 h soak at a pressure of 35 MPa under vacuum. 2H‐wurtzite SiC‐AlN solid‐solution structures were formed for compositions with 25‐100 mol% AlN. The associated lattice parameters for these solid solutions follow…

Site-directed mutagenesis was used to determine the efficacy of changing surface residues to improve crystal quality. Nine mutants of the 24 kDa fragment of the Escherichia coli DNA gyrase B subunit were produced, changing residues on the protein's surface. The mutations changed either the charge or the polarity of th…
We report here the results of magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity, magnetoresistance (MR), heat-capacity, and ${}^{151}\mathrm{Eu}$ M\"ossbauer-effect measurements on the compound ${\mathrm{Eu}}_{2}{\mathrm{CuSi}}_{3},$ crystallizing in an ${\mathrm{AlB}}_{2}$-derived hexagonal structure. The results estab…
To prevent crystals from moving in orbit and sedimenting upon their return to earth, the model protein thaumatin was crystallized in agarose gel in the Advanced Protein Crystallization Facility during the eight-day Space Shuttle mission STS-95 (November 1998). The quality of tetragonal crystals grown in microgravity w…
Surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystals (SSFLCs) fabricated by adopting polymer stabilization in terms of the UV photocure of doped photocurable monoacrylates with mesogenic side chains at a temperature where the LC medium is in the SmC * phase under the simultaneous application of a monopolar electric field,…
The use of agricultural residues for power production has generated increasing interest in the conversion of rice husks to higher quality fuels by thermochemical conversion processes such as pyrolysis, combustion, and gasification. However, the reliable design and operation of thermochemical conversion systems require…
Atomic structures, energies, and stress distributions of symmetrical 〈011〉 tilt grain boundaries (GB's) and selected GB triple junctions (TJ's) in diamond as well as a multiply twinned diamond particle have been calculated using an analytic bond order potential function. In general, energies of 〈011〉 tilt GB's are abo…
Thirteen pedons representing the mountains, the upper footslopes, the lower footslopes, and the alluvial terraces of a volcanic slope in Mindanao, the Philippines were studied to understand relationships between the degree of soil development and fertility characteristics. Soils in the upper and the lower footslopes w…
Effects of Al 2 O 3 doping on the dielectric properties of barium strontium titanate for application in phased array antennas have been studied. The grain size of the specimen is maximum for barium strontium titanate doped with 1 wt% Al 2 O 3 . The density and the real part of the relative dielectric constant decrease…
We describe a model for the layer-thinning transition in free-standing liquid-crystal films based on the successive, spontaneous formation of dislocation loops. As the film temperature increases and the smectic order and layer compressional modulus decrease, the condition for creating a dislocation loop of critical ra…
As one of high power characteristics of the piezoelectric ceramics in Pb(Mn 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 –PbTiO 3 –PbZrO 3 system, the limit vibration velocity ( v max ), is defined as the vibration velocity that generate the fixed temperature rise was evaluated. From this system, a new material with a higher v max of 0.79 m/s whi…
Desorption of NO molecules from Pd(110) at 490 K mediates the emission of N 2 and N 2 O. The N 2 emitted at 490 K has a spatial distribution with a maximum intensity at 38° from the surface normal in the [001] direction, which is expressed by 0.9 cos 4.2 θ + 1.9 cos 46 (θ ± 38°). In contrast, the desorptions of NO and…
Atomic structures and energies of symmetrical 〈001〉 tilt grain boundaries (GB's) in diamond have been calculated over a wide range of misorientation angle using a many-body analytic potential, and for some selected short-period grain boundaries with tight-binding and first-principles density-functional methods. The gr…
