The plasma concentration of human lipoprotein[a], Lp[a], is highly correlated with coronary artery disease. The protein moiety of Lp[a], apoLp[a], consists of two apoproteins, apo[a] and apoB-100, linked by one or more disulfide bonds(s). Apo[a], the protein unique to Lp[a], exists in polymorphic forms that exhibit different apparent molecular weights (Mr). Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in...

We investigated the erythrocyte membrane proteins of two patients with congenital hemolytic anemia due to increased permeability of the erythrocyte membrane to Na and K (hereditary stomatocytosis and cryohydrocytosis). One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis resolved the band 7 erythrocyte membrane proteins into three components with approximate molecular weights of 30,...

An outstanding square slot element, for x-band wireless applications with asymmetric coplanar waveguide fed (CPW) is proposed. Various shapes of metallic strips are utilized as grounded stubs for providing Right Hand Circular Polarization (RHCP) functionality and wide-band properties. By adjusting the proposed stubs and hook-shaped radiator, length and positions, wider impedance band width is o...

A variety of photoluminescent, and in some cases thermochromic, metal-organic networks of CuCN were self-assembled in aqueous reactions with amine ligands: (CuCN) 2(Pip) ( 1a), (CuCN) 20(Pip) 7 ( 1b), (CuCN) 7(MePip) 2 ( 2), (CuCN) 2(Me 2Pip) ( 3a), (CuCN) 4(Me 2Pip) ( 3b), (CuCN) 7(EtPip) 2 ( 4), (CuCN) 4(Et 2Pip) ( 5), (CuCN) 3(BzPip) 2 ( 6a), (CuCN) 5(BzPip) 2 ( 6b), (CuCN) 7(BzPip) 2 ( 6c),...

As previously reported, guanine nucleotide regulation of adenylyl cyclase activity in the Dictyostelium mutant synag 7 can be restored in vitro by addition of a high-speed supernatant prepared from wild-type cells (Theibert, A., and Devreotes, P. N. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 15121-15125). We have designated this activity CRAC, for cytosolic regulator of adenylyl cyclase. Trypsinization of part...

We use a sample of 55 groups and 6 clusters of galaxies ranging in mass from 7×10M⊙ to 1.5×10M⊙ to examine the correlation of the Ks–band luminosity

The 2D material single-layer MnPSe3 would be a promising photocatalyst for water splitting, as indicated by the proper positions of band edges, strong absorption in visible-light spectrum, broad applicability (pH = 0 - 7), and high carrier mobility.

An effective Hamiltonian for the localized spins in the one-dimensional Kondo lattice model is derived via a unitary transformation involving a bosonization of delocalized conduction electrons. The effective Hamiltonian is shown to reproduce all the features of the model as identified in various numerical simulations, and provides much new information on the ferro-to-paramagnetic phase transiti...
