The blocking effect of boundaries in SrTiO 3 bicrystals on the chemical diffusion of oxygen is monitored in situ. The optical technique that is applied allows precise recording of spatial profiles as a function of time. The low symmetrical boundary (near Σ 13) shows a pronounced chemical resistance reflected by a dist…

The YER057c/YIL051c/YjgF protein family is a set of 24 full-length homologs, each approximately 130 residues in length, and each with no known function or relationship to proteins of known structure. To determine the function of this family, the structure of one member--the YjgF protein from Escherichia coli--was solv…

N,O -Bis(trimethylsilyl)-α-amino acids ( N,O -BTMS-AA), mediated by o -phenylene phosphorochloridate (PPC), could oligomerize into polypeptides. The mechanism might go through sequential steps, i.e., the activation of amino acid, the elongation of peptide chain, and the termination of elongation reaction, as can be tr…

The total structure factors of the molten trivalent metal halides MX 3 , where M 3+ denotes La 3+ or Ce 3+ and X - denotes C1 - , Br - or I - , have been measured by using neutron diffraction. Difference function methods were then applied on assuming that the LaX 3 and CeX 3 melts for a given halide ion are isomorphic…

We analyze the origin of medium-range structural order in a simple monatomic liquid simulated by molecular dynamics. Convincing evidence is presented that this structural order, manifested by a prepeak in the structure factor, can be interpreted as chemical ordering in a mixture of atoms and atom-size vacancies. It is…
