A genetic algorithm based design and experimental characterization of a highly thermostable metalloprotein

Ursula Röthlisberger, Rudolf Hovius, Marta Andreia Da Silva Perez, Esra Bozkurt, Nicholas John Browning

The development of thermostable and solvent-tolerant metalloproteins is a long-sought goal for many applica- tions in synthetic biology and biotechnology. In this work, we were able to engineer a highly thermo- and organic solvent- stable metallo variant o ...

Ozonation of municipal wastewater effluent containing metal sulfides and metal complexes: Kinetics and mechanisms

Urs von Gunten

Ozonation can be applied to mitigate the discharge of organic micropollutants from municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) to the aquatic environment. The toxicity of metals also present in WWTP effluents strongly depends on their speciation. Therefo ...

Resonant elastic x-ray scattering from the skyrmion lattice in Cu2OSeO3

Helmuth Berger

We report the study of the skyrmion state near the surface of Cu2OSeO3 using soft resonant elastic x-ray scattering (REXS) at the Cu L-3 edge. Within the lateral sampling area of 200 x 200 mu m(2), we found a long-range-ordered skyrmion lattice phase as we ...

Investigations of the non-adiabatic photophysics of Cu(I)-phenanthroline complexes

Gloria Capano

Cu(I)-phenanthrolines are an important class of metal-organic molecules that exhibits much promise for solar energy harvesting and solar-driven catalysis applications. Although many experimental studies have been performed calling for high-level simulation ...

Accelerated self-cleaning by Cu promoted semiconductor binary-oxides under low intensity sunlight irradiation

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Rosendo Sanjines

Uniform adhesive TiO2–ZrO2 films co-sputtered on polyester (PES) under low intensity sunlight irradiation discolored methylene blue (MB) within 120 min. The discoloration kinetics was seen to be accelerated by a factor four by TiO2–ZrO2–Cu containing ∼0.01 ...

Critical Factors Driving the High Volumetric Uptake of Methane in Cu-3(btc)(2)

Berend Smit

A thorough experimental and computational study has been carried out to elucidate the mechanistic reasons for the high volumetric uptake of methane in the metal-organic framework Cu-3(btc)(2) (btc(3-) = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate; HKUST-1). Methane adsorp ...

Molecular dynamics simulations of apocupredoxins: insights into the formation and stabilization of copper sites under entatic control

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata

Cupredoxins perform copper-mediated long-range electron transfer (ET) in biological systems. Their copper-binding sites have evolved to force copper ions into ET-competent systems with decreased reorganization energy, increased reduction potential, and a d ...
