In the framework of this thesis molecular nanostructures have been engineered on surfaces and are characterized using a variety of techniques. Two types of molecules have been used: carbon nanotubes (CNT) and 4-[trans-2-(pyrid-4-yl-vinyl)] benzoic acid (PV ...
Incubation of resting cells of Sphingobium indicum B90A, Sphingobium japonicum UT26, and Sphingobium francense Sp+ showed that they were able to transform ß- and -hexachlorocyclohexane (ß- and -HCH, respectively), the most recalcitrant hexachlorocyclohexan ...
A method for labeling acyl carrier protein (ACP) fusion proteins with a wide variety of different labels is disclosed. The method relies on the transfer of a label from a coenzyme A type substrate to an ACP fusion protein using a holo-acyl carrier protein ...
O6-substituted guanine derivs. are described for use as substrates for O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferases (AGT) that can be used to label the enzyme or fusion proteins contg. it. Proteins of interest are incorporated into an AGT fusion protein, the AGT ...

We present a comparative study of the nucleation and growth of pentacene monolayer islands in the submonolayer regime onto inorganic substrates of SiO2 and sapphire (Al2O3) and organic substrates of poly(methyl-metacrylate) ...
Initial surface reaction mechanism for atomic layer deposition of HfO2 on the hydroxylated GaAs(001)-4x2 surface using HfCl4 and H2O as precursors is investigated using hybrid density functional theory. The reaction between HfCl4 and H2O with the hydroxyla ...
Oxidn.-sensitive nanoparticles have been decorated with an oxidizing enzyme (glucose oxidase) for release behavior that is responsive to the presence of the enzyme substrate (glucose). [on SciFinder (R)] ...
Structure and dynamics of substrate binding (cefotaxime) to the catalytic pocket of the mononuclear zinc-beta-lactamase from Bacillus cereus are investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The calculations, which are based on the hydrogen-bond pattern ...
A computational framework has been developed for the construction and evaluation of metabolic pathways given input substrates and knowledge of enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Application of the framework creates new and existing routes to both chems. known to ...
In the last past years, many promising applications of nanoparticles in quantum electronics such as nanocrystal memories, chemical sensors or nanodevices based on single electron tunneling and Coulomb blockade effects have attracted much attention. Nanopar ...
