Typically, the effects of ionic strength on metal adsorption to geosorbents are accounted for by models of the surface electric field, assuming a planar surface. However, bacterial cell walls are not two-dimensional surfaces. Furthermore, electric field mo ...
The physiological state of competence for natural transformation allows bacteria to take up free DNA from the environment and recombine it into their genome. As one of three modes of horizontal gene transfer, natural transformation has hence contributed su ...
The cyclic AMP-dependent transcriptional regulator GlxR from Corynebacterium glutamicum is a member of the super-family of CRP/FNR (cyclic AMP receptor protein/fumarate and nitrate reduction regulator) transcriptional regulators that play central roles in ...
The ability to predict the distribution of metals in geologic systems requires a modeling approach that can describe the competition among adsorbing surfaces for the metal of interest. In this study, we test if a component additivity (CA) surface complexat ...
The structural, spectroscopic, and electrochemical properties of [Co{(naph)(2)dien}(N-3)] and [Co{(naph)(2)dpt}(N-3)], where (naph)(2)dien=bis-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldimine)-N-diethylenetriaminedianion and (naph)(2)dpt=bis-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldimine)-N-dipr ...
In this study, a recombinant monoclonal IgG antibody was produced by transient gene expression (TGE) in suspension-adapted HEK-293E cells. The objective of the study was to determine the variation in recombinant IgG yield and glycosylation in ten independe ...
The needle length of the Yersinia spp. injectisome is determined by Yop secretion protein P (YscP), an early substrate of the injectisome itself. There is a linear correlation between the length of YscP and the length of the needle, suggesting that YscP ac ...
The genera Desulfotomaculum and Clostridium, belonging to the phylum Firmicutes, comprise Gram-positive, low G+C genomic content, anaerobic, spore- forming bacteria. Desulfotomaculum is a metabolically and environmentally versatile genus capable of growing ...
Contamination with arsenic is a recurring problem in both industrialized and developing countries. Drinking water supplies for large populations can have concentrations much higher than the permissible levels (for most European countries and the United Sta ...
A wide variety of antibacterial compounds is rapidly oxidized by O-3 and hydroxyl radical ((OH)-O-center dot) during aqueous ozonation. Quantitative microbiological assays have been developed here or adapted from existing methods and utilized to measure th ...
