Evolution of structure and transport properties of the Ba$_8$Cu$_{16}$P$_{30}$ clathrate-I framework with the introduction of Ga
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2022-05-09)Two type-I clathrates were synthesized by introducing Ga into the framework of the Ba$_8$Cu$_{16}$P$_{30}$ type-I clathrate. The introduction of minute amounts of Ga, 1.9% Ga/Mtotal (where $M_{total}$ = Cu + Ga), resulted ... -
Excitation-wavelength-dependent, ultrafast photoinduced electron transfer in bisferrocene/bf2-chelated-azadipyrromethene/fullerene tetrads
(John Wiley and Sons, 2013-05-27)Donor–acceptor distance, orientation, and photoexcitation wavelength are key factors in governing the efficiency and mechanism of electron-transfer reactions both in natural and synthetic systems. Although distance and ... -
Excited-state proton transfer in complexes of poly(methacrylic acid) with dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride
(American Chemical Society, 2004-07-20)Proton-transfer reactions in aqueous solutions of poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) were studied using a fluorescent probe and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Protolytic photodissociation of 1-hydroxypyrene (HP) ... -
Exploration of isotopomer separations by high-resolution differential ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS)
(Wichita State University, 2016-04-29)With all the power of modern mass spectrometry (MS) that made it a dominant analytical approach, characterizing complex and particularly isomeric mixtures requires prior separations. Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is a ... -
Exploring one-state downhill protein folding in single molecules
(National Academy of Sciences, 2012-01-3)A one-state downhill protein folding process is barrierless at all conditions, resulting in gradual melting of native structure that permits resolving folding mechanisms step-by-step at atomic resolution. Experimental ... -
Exploring the role of linker region and ig4 on the activity of palladin ig34 tandem domain
(Wichita State University, 2018-04-27)The protein palladin is a known regulator of the actin cytoskeleton and acts as an actin scaffold due to its ability to bind multiple actin-binding proteins. This grants palladin a key role in regulating actin rearrangement--a ... -
Expression profiling of in vivo ductal carcinoma in situ progression models identified B cell lymphoma-9 as a molecular driver of breast cancer invasion
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2015-09-17)Introduction: There are an estimated 60,000 new cases of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) each year. A lack of understanding in DCIS pathobiology has led to overtreatment of more than half of patients. We profiled the ... -
Extended search for supernovalike neutrinos in NOvA coincident with LIGO/Virgo detections
(American Physical Society, 2021-09-15)A search is performed for supernovalike neutrino interactions coincident with 76 gravitational wave events detected by the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration. For 40 of these events, full readout of the time around the gravitational ... -
F-NMR studies on Anthrax protective antigen -- Restricted access to full text
(Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2012-04-18)Anthrax secretes a three component which is composed of three proteins: lethal factor (LF), edema factor (EF), and protective antigen (PA). PA transfers LF and EF into the host cytosol through a membrane spanning pore, ... -
Face-to-face pacman-type porphyrin-fullerene dyads: design, synthesis, charge-transfer interactions, and photophysical studies
(John Wiley and Sons, 2008-01-01)Pacman-type face-to-face zinc-porphyrin-fullerene dyads have been newly synthesized and studied. Owing to the close proximity of the donor and acceptor entities, strong pi-pi intramolecular interactions between the porphyrin ... -
A facile cross-linking approach to fabricate durable and self-healing superhydrophobic coatings of SiO2-PVA@PDMS on cotton textile
