Little is known about the structure of microbial communities in Sphagnum peatlands, and the potential effects of the increasing atmospheric CO2 concentration on these communities are not known. We analyzed the structure of microbial communities in five Sph ...
The energetics of dissocn. reactions of S82+ into stoichiometric mixts. of Sn+, n = 2-7, and Sm2+, m = 3, 4, 6, 10, were investigated by the B3PW91 method [6-311+G(3df)//6-311+G*] in the gas phase and in soln., with solvation energies calcd. using the SCIP ...
Absorption, fluorescence and excitation spectra of three-dimensional bacteriorhodopsin crystals harvested from a lipidic cubic phase are presented. The combination of the spectroscopic expts. performed at room temp., controlled pH and full external hydrati ...
We calc. the effects of relatively strong elec. fields, corresponding to typical values for the fields inside glasses and proteins, on the spectroscopic properties of a simple two-level mol. Disorder in the elec. field strength is employed as a phys. sourc ...
The secondary structure of bacterio-opsin (BO), the retinal free protein-component of bacteriorhodopsin (BR), was detd. by Raman spectroscopy. Addnl. CD measurements revealed only negligible conformational differences between BO in apomembranes and BR in p ...
We identified submicrometer-sized framboidal sphalerite (ZnS) below the base of supergene oxidation in a Carlin-type gold deposit of Eocene age in Nevada, United States, where the framboidal sphalerite forms a blanket-like body containing >400,000 metric t ...
