Silk fibrillogenesis: Morphology, structure and hydration of the intermediate...
At the heart of protein¿s aggregation are specific molecular events; and how they are modulated by changes in solvent conditions is key to our understanding and control of... -
Detailed structures of surfactant micelles
Measurements are required for Sans2d resolution checks and also the overlap of the two Sans2d detectors. Proposal submitted to panel and they deemed it should be done as... -
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... -
Nanoscale Phase Separation in Organic Solar Cells and Its Impact on Device Pe...
Solid-state Organic Solar cells (OSCs) have the potential to be the basis of a renewable energy source that is inexpensive and portable. Current state-of-the-art... -
Kinetics of the formation of eumelanin and its intermediates
The proposed research project is targeted to the investigation of the characteristics of eumelanin, a heterogeneous material insoluble in water and in any organic solvent, as... -
Structural Study of Functional Nucleosome in Solution
Recently, it is reported that the functional nucleosomes, CENP-A nucleosome, H2A.Bbd nucleosome and hexasome, which include variant histone cores, could have flexible and mobile... -
Life without water: The role of intrinsically disordered proteins under condi...
When cells are subjected to stress, such as drying, globular proteins are observed to unfold and irreversibly aggregate. Certain intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) do not... -
Adsorption of of hydrophobin and hydrophobin / surfactant mixtures at the oil...
Hydrophobins are secreted fungal proteins and are small lipopeptide biosurfactants. They are strongly surface active and self-assemble at interface, and these unique film... -
Solventless protein liquids: a novel form of biological matter
Solventless protein liquids (SPLS) represent a novel form of biological matter. Recently we reported on the preparation and properties of a solvent-free liquid protein based on... -
Fundamentals of Nanotoxicity: The Role of Nanoparticles in Lowering the Energ...
Despite the increasing use of nanoparticles (NPs), our current knowledge of how NPs interact with the human body or the environment remains limited. Of a number of mechanisms, a... -
How aggregate lifetimes affect the kinetics of surfactant surface multilayer ...
The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces from surfactant self-assembly is an important structural signature associated with a wide range of technological...
