CcmG, also designated DsbE, functions as a periplasmic protein thiol:disulfide oxidoreductase and is required for cytochrome c maturation. Here we report the crystal structures of Escherichia coli CcmG and its two mutants, P144A and the N-terminal fifty seven-residue deletion mutant, and two additional deletion mutant…
The growth direction and morphology of one-dimensional ZnO nanostructures grown by metal–organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) were modulated by changing the growth temperature of previously deposited ZnO buffer layers that were used as a template. The ZnO nanorods grown on the low-temperature deposited buffer la…
The dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) method was used to simulate the flow in a system comprised of a fluid occupying the space between two cylinders rotating with equal angular velocities. The fluid, initially at rest, ultimately reaches a steady, linear velocity distribution (a rigid-body rotation). Since the indu…
The aim of this study was to extract collagen from fish skins and investigate the physical properties of the biodegradable films formed from the extracted fish collagen. Extraction of collagen using hydrogen peroxide or enzymatic methods proved to be unsuccessful. A white collagen substance was successfully extracted…
Results of a theoretical and experimental photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) study of the size evolution of electronic properties of small ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{n}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ clusters are presented. The agreement between the computed and measured data verifies the validity of the theoretical treatment. The theoretical…
In the framework of the thermodynamic perturbation theory for fluids we study how the phase diagram of an isotropic repulsive soft-core attractive potential, where a liquid-liquid phase transition exists in addition to the standard gas-liquid phase transition, changes by varying the parameters of the potential. We sho…
The synthesis and the X-ray structure of two complexes exhibiting a linear chain of four nickel atoms is reported, following Ni4(mu4-phdpda)4 (1), which had been characterized previously. [Ni4(mu4-Tsdpda)4(H2O)2], where H2Tsdpda is N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)dipyridyldiamine (2), is axially coordinated to two water molecule…
The redox reactions of DMcT at PEDOT-modified glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) in acetonitrile (AN) have been investigated via cyclic voltammetry (CV) and the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) in order to elucidate the redox reaction mechanism. A redox couple at -0.29 V versus Ag/Ag+ was assigned to th…
The present study aimed at exploring the use of amine-containing core-shell nanoparticles as potential drug carriers for intracellular delivery. Stable nanoparticles (100-200 nm in diameter) that consisted of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) cores with hydrophilic poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) shells were synthesized and…
A polymer analogous synthesis involving the reductive amination of phosphorylcholine (PC)-glyceraldehyde with primary amines of deacetylated chitosan (M(w) approximately 57000 g mol(-1)) was used to prepare phosphorylcholine-substituted chitosans (PC-CH) with a degree of substitution (DS) ranging from approximately 11…
The ultrastructures of novel threadlike structures (NTSs) and corpuscles on the surfaces of internal organs of rats were investigated using electron microscopy. The samples were studied in situ by using a stereomicroscope and were taken for further morphological analysis. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images reve…
Because of its widespread availability, natural gas is the most important fuel for early application of stationary fuel cells, and furthermore, methane containing biogases are one of the most promising renewable energy alternatives; thus, it is very important to be able to efficiently utilize methane in fuel cells. Ty…
A novel polyaniline nanofibre supported platinum (Pt) nanoelectrocatalyst is developed for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). Polyaniline nanofibres (PaniNFs) with a 60 nm diameter are synthesized by a scalable interfacial polymerization without the use of a template or functional dopant. PaniNF supported Pt electroc…
One of the biggest challenges of nanotechnology is the fabrication of nano-objects with perfectly controlled properties. Here we employ a focused laser beam both to characterize and to {\it in-situ} modify single semiconductor structures by heating them from cryogenic to high temperatures. The heat treatment allows us…
The transition metal-oxygen bond appears very prominently throughout chemistry and solid-state physics. Many materials, from biomolecules to ferroelectrics to the components of supernova remnants contain this bond in some form. Many of these materials' properties depend strongly on fine details of the TM-O bond, which…
The study of the ordered oxygen deficient perovskite EuBaCo2-xNixO5.50 shows that the doping of cobalt sites by nickel induces a strong ferromagnetic component at low temperature in the antiferromagnetic matrix of EuBaCo2O5.50. This system exhibits indeed phase separation, i.e. consists of ferromagnetic domains embedd…
Heat conduction of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) isotope superlattice is investigated by means of classical molecular dynamics simulations. Superlattice structures were formed by alternately connecting SWNTs with different masses. On varying the superlattice period, the critical value with minimum effective t…
A versatile method for combining density functional theory (DFT) in the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) is presented. Starting from a general basis-independent formulation, we use Wannier functions as an interface between the two theories. These functions are used for the phys…
We present a crystal field theory of transition metal impurities in semiconductors in a trigonally distorted tetrahedral coordination. We develop a perturbative scheme to treat covalency effects within the weak ligand field case (Coulomb interaction dominates over one-particle splitting) and apply it to ZnO:Co$^{2+}$…
The slowing down of dipole dynamics upon cooling into nonergodic relaxor phase in classical relaxor $\mathrm{Pb}({\mathrm{Mg}}_{1∕3}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{2∕3}){\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ crystal is studied using dielectric spectroscopy in the range of ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}--{10}^{5}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{Hz}$. We discove…
