The group of proteins that contain a thioredoxin (Trx) fold is huge and diverse. Assessment of the variation in catalytic machinery of Trx fold proteins is essential in providing a foundation for understanding their functional diversity and predicting the function of the many uncharacterized members of the class. The proteins of the Trx fold class retain common features-including variations on ...

The impacts of curing plus antioxidant or prooxidant inclusion in model meat systems on malondialdehyde (MDA) levels detected by three different assays as spectrophotometry (M-1), test kit (M-2), and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC, M-3) were explored. Four treatments that included non-cured, cured, cured zeaxanthin-added, ferric iron-added produced. MDA during storage recorded M-1...

Micelles are the simplest example of self-assembly found in nature. As many other colloids, they can self-assemble in aqueous solution to form ordered periodic structures. These structures so far all exhibited classical crystallographic symmetries. Here we report that micelles in solution can self-assemble into quasicrystalline phases. We observe phases with 12-fold and 18-fold diffraction symm...

Operads were originally defined as V-operads, that is, enriched in a symmetric or braided monoidal category V. The symmetry or braiding in V is required in order to describe the associativity axiom the operads must obey, as well as the associativity that must be a property of the action of an operad on any of its algebras. A sequence of categorical types that filter the category of monoidal cat...
