چکیده

The formation and full characterization of single self-assembling alpha,gamma-peptide nanotubes (alpha,gamma-SPNs) is described. The introduction of C(60) into cyclic peptides allows the preparation of supramolecular 1D fullerene arrangements induced by peptide nanotube formation under appropriate conditions.

Diffusive growth of fullerenes and carbon nanotubes.

The video of a growing fullerene within a carbon nanotube, initiated by a tungsten catalyst, provides a dramatic realization of a complex nanoscale process. While there may be many detailed models which can account for this growth, we propose one of the simplest possible models which is consistent with the major observed features of the growth process. In particular, we assume that the fulleren...

Nanoparticle manipulation by thermal gradient

A method was proposed to manipulate nanoparticles through a thermal gradient. The motion of a fullerene molecule enclosed inside a (10, 10) carbon nanotube with a thermal gradient was studied by molecular dynamics simulations. We created a one-dimensional potential valley by imposing a symmetrical thermal gradient inside the nanotube. When the temperature gradient was large enough, the fulleren...

DNA-directed synthesis of zinc oxide nanowires on carbon nanotube tips.

This paper describes a class of three component hybrid nanowires templated by DNA directed self-assembly. Through the modification of carbon nanotube (CNT) termini with synthetic DNA oligonucleotides, gold nanoparticles are delivered, via DNA hybridization, to CNT tips that then serve as growth sites for zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires. The structures we have generated using DNA templating represent...

بررسی اثر نانولوله‌های کربنی چند دیواره بر امواج مغزی در موش صحرایی

Background & Aims: The changes of brain waves eventually sub-bands power incidence in the form of clinical protests. Regarding the use of multi-walled carbon nanotubes in neuroscience, the alpha/ theta power ratio is a reliable scale to measure the disorders associated with learning. The present study aimed to examine the effect of this substance examined on brain waves and investigated its...

Avian lens spectrin: subunit composition compared with erythrocyte and brain spectrin

Chicken lens spectrin is composed predominantly of equimolar amounts of two polypeptides with solubility properties similar, but not identical, to erythrocyte spectrin. The larger polypeptide, Mr 240,000 (lens alpha-spectrin), co-migrates with erythrocyte and brain alpha-spectrin on one- and two-dimensional SDS polyacrylamide gels and cross-reacts with antibodies specific for chicken erythrocyt...
