Protein synthesis is one of the central elements in every living cell. For this process, mRNAs coding for genes are simultaneously competing for the same translation machinery (ribosomes and amino acids). But the ultimate determinants of cellular functions ...
We have investigated different possible mechanisms for the cis-trans isomerization in triply bonded ditungsten complexes with stoichiometry W2Cl4(NHEt)2(PMe3)2 using static d. functional calcns. as well as Car-Parrinello simulations. Our studies reveal an ...
This thesis deals with a laboratory study of heterogeneous reactions involving bromine and chlorine containing reservoir species on alkali salt substrates which are relevant to the marine boundary layer, and on ice substrates which are relevant to the lowe ...
The sequencing of genomes of several organisms and advances in high throughput technologies for transcriptome and proteome anal. has allowed detailed mechanistic studies of transcription and translation using math. frameworks that allow integration of both ...
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are ubiquitous in eukaryotic signal transduction, and these pathways are conserved in cells from yeast to mammals. They relay extracellular stimuli from the plasma membrane to targets in the cytoplasm an ...
Translation lies at the heart of every living organism, it is the process synthesizing the proteins, a main component in the cells. Earlier studies have considered protein synthesis as mainly initiation limited, modeling it as a first-order reaction with r ...
Time-delays are common in many physical and biological systems and they give rise to complex dynamic phenomena. The elementary processes involved in template biopolymerization, such as mRNA and protein synthesis, introduce significant time delays. However, ...
Protein synthesis is one of the central elements in every living cell. For this process, the mRNAs coding for genes are simultaneously competing for the same translation machinery, i.e. for the same ribosomes and the same protein building blocks, the amino ...
The genetic information in DNA is transcribed to mRNA and then translated to proteins, which form the building blocks of life. Translation, or protein synthesis, is hence a central cellular process. We have developed a gene-sequence-specific mechanistic mo ...
A new crosslinking scheme for producing polyethylene glycol hydrogels is described, involving a conjugate addn. reaction between PEG-multiacrylate and PEG-dithiol. Albumin was released from the gels with zero-order kinetics over four days. The gels are ame ...
