Pseudomonas aeruginosa alcohol dehydrogenase (PaADH; ADH, EC 1.1.1.1) catalyzes the reversible oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and ketones, using NAD as coenzyme. We crystallized the ternary complex of PaADH with its coenzyme and a substrate molecule and determined its struct…

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and optical spectroscopy measurements were performed on InAs nanorods 7 to 25 nm long. Both methods reveal a clear dependence of the band-gap on length, with a red shift for longer rods. This (zero-dimension like) behavior is different than that of CdSe rods, where the band-gap is n…

Two PcSn(IV) dicarboxylate molecules were obtained through efficient microwave methodology with the aim to test them as corrosion inhibitors in the oil industry. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis, (1)H, (13)C NMR, and X-ray diffraction. The relative configuration of the two carboxylate…

Abstract The conversion of poly(amic acid) into polyimide (PI) was achieved with far‐infrared radiation (FIR) and conventional thermal treatments. The structure and properties of PI films during different stages of imidization were studied with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, weight‐loss analysis during imidi…

We present a universal relation for crack surface cohesion including surface relaxation. Specifically, we analyze how N atomic planes respond to an opening displacement at its boundary, producing structurally relaxed surfaces. Via density-functional theory, we verify universality for metals (Al), ceramics $(\ensuremat…

Neutron scattering studies of single crystal LiNiPO4 reveal a spontaneous first-order commensurate-incommensurate magnetic phase transition. Short- and long-range incommensurate phases are intermediate between the high temperature paramagnetic and the low temperature antiferromagnetic phases. The modulated structure h…

Adsorption of proteins onto film surfaces built up layer by layer from oppositely charged polyelectrolytes is a complex phenomenon, governed by electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonds, and hydrophobic interactions. The amounts of the interacting charges, however, both in polyelectrolytes and in proteins adsorbed on such…

We report the observation in solution of the recently discovered tetrahedral Au 20 cluster coordinated with eight PPh 3 (Ph = phenyl) ligands. The composition and molecular weight of the Au 20 (PPh 3 ) 8 complex were confirmed by the isotopic pattern and accurate mass measurement of its doubly charged cation using hig…

Regenerable and reusable dendritic catalysts have been synthesized by the ionic assembly of polyammonium dendrimers and polyoxometalate (POM) trianionic units. These dendrimers (see example depicted, in which the POM is [PO4{WO(O2)2}4]3−) are found to catalyze, at ambient temperature, the quantitative epoxidation of o…

We have demonstrated a new mechanism for modulating light with light by controlling the efficiency with which light is coupled into a plasmon polariton wave. An optical fluence of 15 mJ/cm^2 in the control channel is sufficient to achieve nearly a 10-fold intensity modulation of the signal beam reflected from a Glass/…
