When grown under K+ limitation, Escherichia coli induces the K+-translocating KdpFABC complex. The stimulation of ATPase activity by NH4+ ions was shown for the first time. Substitutions in KdpA, which is responsible for K+ binding and translocation, revealed that enzyme complexes KdpA:G232A and KdpA:G232S have comple…

A concept combining optics and microwave pulses with the negative charge-state of the nitrogen-vacancy (NV—) center in diamond is demonstrated through experiments that are equivalent to single-qubit gates, and decoherence for this qubit is examined. The spin levels of the ground state provide the two-level system. Opt…

Hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) exhibits a unique ability to release and activate H2O2 from the urea-hydrogen peroxide adduct (UHP). This UHP/HFIP system was investigated in epoxidation of olefins, using various fluoroketones as catalysts. With reactive olefins, no catalyst was required. With monosubstituted olefins, epo…

Crystalline nanobelts of ZnO and SnO2 were prepared from a thermal evaporation of oxide powders inside an alumina tube in the absence of catalysts. Typical dimensions of the nanobelt samples ranged from approximately 10 to 100 microns in length, 30 to 300 nm in width, and 6 to 30 nm in thickness. Room temperature Rama…
