S100B binds tightly to a 12-amino acid peptide derived from heterodimeric capping protein. In native intact capping protein, this sequence is in the C terminus of the alpha-subunit, which is important for capping the actin filament. This C-terminal region is proposed to act as a flexible "tentacle," extending away from the body of capping protein in order to bind actin. To this hypothesis, we a...

Zinc ferrite nanoparticles have been synthesized by the co-precipitation method where Polyethylene Glycol act as capping agent. The sample structure and morphology of product were analysed powder XRD, FTIR, U-V visible spectroscopy scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). prepared NPs annealed at varying temperatures such 500℃, 600℃ 700℃. XRD data confirms presence nanosized ZnFeO particles X-ray...

This report addresses and resolves several issues in the use of combinators for molecular computation. The issues include assumptions about binding sites and linking groups, “capping” of unused sites, replication and sharing of structures in a molecular context, creation of cyclic structures, disassembly of unneeded structures, representation of Boolean values and conditionals, representation o...

n-CdZnS thin films have been prepared by our in-house designed and developed chemical bath deposition (CBD) instrument using 2-mercaptoethanol as capping agent. The structural properties were investigated through X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis which results the obtained CdZnS are of hexagonal phase. surface morphology texture fabricated characterized scanning electron microscopy atomic force ...

The present study focuses on the exploration of a synthetic procedure for preparation green silver nanoparticles. Using lactose as reducing agent, reaction mixture containing precursor was exposed to ultrasonic irradiation at ambient temperature and conditions. To optimize synthesis, pH levels concentration were varied. acidic level, no nanoparticles produced since there color change observed a...

The effect of silica-capping on the afterglow property of Sr2MgSi2O7:Eu,Dy nanoparticles was investigated. Sr2MgSi2O7:Eu,Dy nanoparticles were prepared by laser ablation in liquid. Afterglow nanoparticles were capped with silica using Stöber method. A dense silica capping layer was achieved after 4 hours of reaction. Silica-capping of the afterglow nanoparticles improved the particles’ afterglo...

Capping is the first step in pre-mRNA processing, and the resulting 5'-RNA cap is required for mRNA splicing, export, translation, and stability. Capping is functionally coupled to transcription by RNA polymerase (Pol) II, but the coupling mechanism remains unclear. We show that efficient binding of the capping enzyme (CE) to transcribing, phosphorylated yeast Pol II (Pol IIp) requires nascent ...
