Surface mediated hierarchical assemblies of highly hydrophobic phenylalanine-based peptides
(2017-01-01)
Article
Accés obertWe report the noticeable control exerted by the surface in the self-assembly of a highly hydrophobic triphenylalanine peptide with fluorenyl functionalities blocking the two ends. The remarkable differences observed among ... -
Diversity and hierarchy in supramolecular assemblies of triphenylalanine: from laminated helical ribbons to toroids
(2017-04-04)
Article
Accés obertMicrostructures from small phenylalanine-based peptides have attracted great attention lately because these compounds are considered to be a new class of tunable materials. In spite of the extensive studies on uncapped ... -
Sustainable synthesis of amino acids by catalytic fixation of molecular dinitrogen and carbon dioxide
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018-02-07)
Article
Accés obertThe industrial process of nitrogen fixation is complex and results in a huge economic and environmental impact. It requires a catalyst and high temperature and pressure to induce the rupture of the strong N–N bond and ... -
Plasma-treated polyethylene as electrochemical mediator for enzymatic glucose sensors: Toward bifunctional glucose and dopamine sensors
(2018-01-01)
Article
Accés obertThe application of inert and insulating low density polyethylene (LDPE) in electrochemical detection is null. However, in a recent study it was found that reactive species formed onto the surface of plasma-treated LDPE and ... -
Massive quantum regions for simulations on bio-nanomaterials: synthetic ferritin nanocages
(2018-02-01)
Article
Accés obertQM/MM molecular dynamics simulations on the 4His-DC* protein cage have been performed using multiple active zones (up to 86 quantum regions). The regulation and nanocage stability exerted by the divalent transitionmetal ... -
Influence of the surrounding environment in re-naturalized ß-barrel membrane proteins
(2018-03-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorial© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Outer-membrane porins are currently being used to prepare bioinspired nanomembranes for selective ion transport by immobilizing them into polymeric matrices. However, the fabrication of these ... -
Improvement of insulation effectiveness of natural rubber by adding hydroxyl-functionalized barium titanate nanoparticles
(2017-10-11)
Article
Accés obertNatural rubber (NR) products are being applied in many protective tools for life-line applications, including insulating boots, blankets, sleeves, insulating gloves, or flexible coverings. Due to the inherent risk of such ... -
Modeling of a C-end rule peptide adsorbed onto gold nanoparticles
(2017-12-12)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe RPAR peptide, a prototype C-end Rule (CendR) sequence that binds to neuropilin-1 (NRP-1), has potential therapeutic uses as internalization trigger in anticancer nanodevices. Recently, the functionalization of gold ... -
Evaluación de alternativas fotométricas para el análisis de dióxido de cloro en aguas: amaranto y rojo de clorofenol
(2017)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialLas empresas de abastecimiento de agua potable precisan de métodos selectivos y suficientemente sensibles para la determinación del desinfectante dióxido de cloro. El método más utilizado, la determinación colorimétrica ... -
Effects of sulfate and nitrate on the taste of water: a study with a trained panel
(2017-12-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe role of sulfate and nitrate in the taste of drinking water is not entirely clear. Taste threshold concentrations (TTCs) were estimated for these two species by the 3-AFC method by a trained panel, as sodium and calcium ... -
Mechanistic insights into the reaction of chlorination of tryptophan catalyzed by tryptophan 7-halogenase
(Macmillan Publishers, 2017-12-12)
Article
Accés obertTryptophan 7-halogenase catalyzes chlorination of free tryptophan to 7-chlorotryptophan, which is the first step in the antibiotic pyrrolnitrin biosynthesis. Many biologically and pharmaceutically active natural products ... -
Antimicrobial electrospun fibers of polyester loaded with engineered cyclic gramicidin analogues
(2017)
Article
Accés obertBiodegradable polyester fibers have been loaded with two engineered analogues of gramicidin soviet. In these cyclic peptide derivatives, which were designed in a previous work to stabilize the bioactive conformation while ...
