Breaking of pseudosymmetry using direct methods

Direct-methods structure determination of a trypanosome RNA-editing substrate fragment with translational pseudosymmetry

Using direct methods starting from random phases, the crystal structure of a 32-base-pair RNA (675 non-H RNA atoms in the asymmetric unit) was determined using only the native diffraction data (resolution limit 1.05 Å) and the computer program SIR2014. The almost three helical turns of the RNA in the asymmetric unit introduced partial or imperfect translational pseudosymmetry (TPS) that modulat...

Examination of PbCO3 solubility using direct and competitive chelation methods

Using Pseudosymmetry to Reduce Search Effort

Symmetry breaking exploits a relationship between solutions: that they occur in equivalence classes. Constraints may be added to exclude all symmetrically equivalent solutions but one, greatly reducing the search space. Using two problems we show that a weaker relationship can also be exploited: that the existence of one solution implies the existence of another but not necessarily vice versa. ...

development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles

a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...
