Malic enzymes have high cofactor selectivity. An isoform-specific distribution of residues 314, 346, 347 and 362 implies that they may play key roles in determining the cofactor specificity. Currently, Glu314, Ser346, Lys347 and Lys362 in human c-NADP-ME were changed to the corresponding residues of human m-NAD(P)-ME…

Sec14 is the major phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns)/phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) transfer protein in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is the founding member of the Sec14 protein superfamily. Recent functional data suggest that Sec14 functions as a nanoreactor for PtdCho-regulated presentation of PtdIns to PtdIns ki…

We present direct laser writing of channels in chalcogenide glass under light filamentation conditions. Because of the intrinsic properties of the filament, the positive refractive index profile of the channels exhibits a cylindrical symmetry of high quality. The role of the repetition rate is also investigated. It is…

Electrostatic properties of two-dimensional nanosystems can be completely described by their non-trivial geometry modes. In this paper we prove that these modes as well as the corresponding eigenvalues are invariant under any conformal transformation. This invariance suggests a new way to study electrostatic conformal…

We analyze the deformation of the potential energy surface (PES) due to the incorrect description of fractional electron systems (the nonlinearity of the energy with electron number) within a (semi)local density functional theory (DFT). Particularly sensitive to this failure are polaronic systems where charge localiza…
