Computational Studies for the Design of Metalloenzyme Mimics

At present, there is no general standard automated method for engineering metalloenzymes, industrially-relevant systems able to catalyze environmentally friendly reactions. One of the most studied natural metalloenzymes is the second isoform of human carbo ...

Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study of Ca3Ru2O7

Qian Wang, Claudia Giuseppina Fatuzzo, Thorsten Schmitt, Johan Juul Chang, Yi Tseng

We present a combined oxygen K-edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) study of the bilayer ruthenate Ca3Ru2O7. Our RIXS experiments on Ca3Ru2O7 were carried out on the overlapping planar and interplanar oxygen res ...

Carbon turnover and microbial activity in an artificial soil under imposed cyclic drainage and imbibition

Tatjana Milojevic

Water table fluctuations generate temporally and spatially dynamic physicochemical conditions that drive biogeochemical hot spots and hot moments in the vadose zone. However, their role in the cycling of soil C remains poorly known. Here, we present result ...

Anhydrous Conditions Enable the Catalyst-Free Carboxylation of Aromatic Alkynes with CO2 under Mild Conditions

Paul Joseph Dyson, Marinella Mazzanti, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Davide Toniolo

The direct carboxylation of aromatic alkynes with CO2, a cheap and widely available C1 source, is the most attractive method for the synthesis of carboxylic acids. Here we show that direct carboxylation of terminal alkynes can be simply performed in near-q ...

Role of MCT1 and CAII in skeletal muscle pH homeostasis, energetics, and function: in vivo insights from MCT1 haploinsufficient mice

Pierre Magistretti, Sylvain Eric Lengacher, Luc Pellerin

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a partial suppression of monocarboxylate transporter (MCT)-1 on skeletalmuscle pH, energetics, and function (MCT1(+/-) mice). Twenty-fourMCT1(+/-) and 13 wild-type (WT) mice were subjected to a re ...

Influence of bicarbonate ions on the deterioration of mortar bars in sulfate solutions

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Wolfgang Kunther

This work investigates the influence of bicarbonate ions on the deterioration of cementitious material exposed to sulfate ions. Mortars based on a CEM I and on a CEM III/B cement were investigated. Experimental investigations were compared to thermodynamic ...

Significant Molecular and Systemic Adaptations after Repeated Sprint Training in Hypoxia

Jean-Marc Vesin, Grégoire Millet

While intermittent hypoxic training (IHT) has been reported to evoke cellular responses via hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) but without substantial performance benefits in endurance athletes, we hypothesized that repeated sprint training in hypoxia could ...

Bridging Static and Dynamical Descriptions of Chemical Reactions: An ab Initio Study of CO2 Interacting with Water Molecules

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci

Extracting reliable thermochemical parameters from molecular dynamics simulations of chemical reactions, although based on ab initio methods, is generally hampered by difficulties in reproducing the results and controlling the statistical errors. This is a ...

Semisynthetic Fluorescent Sensor Proteins Based on Self-Labeling Protein Tags

Matthias Albert Brun

Genetically encoded fluorescent sensor proteins offer the possibility to probe the concentration of key metabolites in living cells. The approaches currently used to generate such fluorescent sensor proteins lack generality, as they require a protein that ...

Effect of competing ions and complexing organic substances on the cadmium uptake by the soil bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti

Rita Hajdu Schenk

In an effort to improve the understanding and prediction of Cd uptake by soil bacteria, adsorbed and intracellular Cd were determined in unpolluted and highly polluted model soil solutions within a concentration range spanning from 10-9 to 5  10-5 M of ca ...
