چکیده

Using UV and srCD spectroscopy it is found that loop length within the i-motif structure is important for both thermal and pH stability, but in contrast to previous statements, it is the shorter loops that exhibit the highest stability.

Loop nucleotides impact the stability of intrastrand i-motif structures at neutral pH.

The stability of i-motif structures at neutral pH is of interest due to the potential of these structures to impact gene expression. A systematic investigation of loop sequence and length revealed that certain loop nucleobases stabilize i-motif quadruplexes.

Theoretical Analysis on the Conformational Features of the HCO—Gly—L—Leu—NH2 Protected Dipeptide Motif: Ab initio and DFT Exploratory

For better understanding of conformational stability of the dipeptide model HCO—Gly—L—Leu—NH2,ab initio and DFT computations at HF/6-31G(4 6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-31G(d) levels oftheory were carried out. Geometry optimization of the dipeptide within the leucine (Leu) side chainangles (x2 ,x2) resulted in three stable conformations as followings: anti-anti, the most stable one,(Xi = 180°, x2 =...

APPLICATIONS OF PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN STABILITY INDEX AND CRITICAL LENGTH IN AVALANCHE DYNAMICS

In this study, Stability analysis of snow slab which is under detonation has developed in the present model. The model has been studied by using the basic concepts of non-detonation model and concepts of underwater explosions with appropriate modifications to the present studies. The studies have also been extended to account the effect of critical length variations at the time of detonation an...

A MODEL FOR THE BASIC HELIX- LOOPHELIX MOTIF AND ITS SEQUENCE SPECIFIC RECOGNITION OF DNA

A three dimensional model of the basic Helix-Loop-Helix motif and its sequence specific recognition of DNA is described. The basic-helix I is modeled as a continuous ?-helix because no ?-helix breaking residue is found between the basic region and the first helix. When the basic region of the two peptide monomers are aligned in the successive major groove of the cognate DNA, the hydrophobi...

Modeling, Control and Simulation of Cascade Control Servo System for one Axis Gimbal Mechanism

The gimbal stabilization mechanism is used to provide the stability to an object mounted on the gimbal by isolating it from the base angular motion and vibration. The purpose of this paper is to present a model of control servo system for one axis gimbal mechanism using a cascade PID controller. The gimbal torque relationships are derived by taking into consideration the base angular motion. Th...
