Chloride Intracellular Channel insertion into Tethered Bilayer Membranes
Part One of the proposal is concerned with the fundamental structure of the TBM and aims to determine: (i) the impact of spacer molecule length on the dimensions of the bilayer... -
In situ loading of Zr-2.5Nb-O at cryogenic temperatures
The proposed experiment will study the deformation of a two phase Zr-2.5Nb alloy at cryogenic temperatures. It forms part of our ongoing long-term project to understand the... -
Using small angle neutron diffraction to describe the status of water in solu...
Fish oocytes and embryos are complex cryobiological objects for which, successful cryopreservation has still not been achieved. This circumstance seriously restricts the... -
Application of direct inversion to magnetic contrast datasets.
We have developed an experimental approach using a buried magnetic layer to provide contrast in systems consisting of complex biomolecular layers tethered to gold surfaces. This... -
Floating Bilayers Deposited on Au / Fe Surfaces
There is currly great interest in the use of neutron reflection to study model bilayers. We have produced a model membrane system that is strongly associated with the substrate,... -
Floating Bilayer Mimics of the Gram Negative Bacterial Outer Membrane
The gram-negative bacterial membrane is of extreme medical importance. The two main lipid components of the outer membrane are lipopolysaccharides (LPS's) and DOPE. We will... -
High temperature fatigue loading of Zr-2
Zircaloy-2 and its almost identical sister alloy Zr-4 are used extensively as fuel cladding, as well as other components in nuclear power reactors where it operates at 250-350C... -
The solution structure of the OmpF¿Colicin N complex in neutral detergent by ...
Gram negative bacteria cause a wide range of diseases including meningitis, bubonic plague, gonorrhoea, diarrhoea, Legionnaires' disease and cholera. Their outer membrane... -
The solution structure of the OmpF¿Colicin N complex in neutral detergent by ...
Gram negative bacteria cause a wide range of diseases. Colicins are protein toxins capable of penetrating the outer membrane barrier and killing the bacteria. Thus they... -
Structural study on the 3D arrangement of (hexa-acyl) lipid A in lipid membrane
This study will focus on the structural investigations of the bilayers formed on silicon substrates in which the outer leaf consists of DOPE/LPS mixtures. We aim is to achieve... -
In-situ tension and compression tests in plane strain
This proposal forms part of our larger study into the mechanics of nickel based alloys. In particular we are attempting to correlate the intergranular stress development in... -
Continuation of Proposal (RB820197): The elasto-plastic response of dual-phas...
In the current proposal we propose to test Zr-2.5Nb samples cut at a range of angles (0, 22.5, 45, 67.5 and 90°) in the RD-TD plane in in-situ compression at room temperature.... -
Function and Structure of Reconstituted Neurotransmitters in biomembranes
Neurotransmitter transporters recognize biogenic amines dopamine, serotonin, noradrenalin and γ-amino butyric acid (GABA). They all belong to the family of... -
