Investigating Intra- and Inter-Molecular Coevolution of Intrinsically Disordered Protein, Prothymosin-alpha
(East Carolina University, 1/13/16)Prothymosin-α (ProTα) is a small, highly acidic protein found in the nuclei of virtually all mammalian tissues. It belongs to a class of proteins known for their lack of a rigid three-dimensional structure called intrinsically ... -
DISNET: a Distributed System NETwork
(East Carolina University, 1984)This paper describes a Distributed Instrument System NETwork (DISNET) which was implemented within the Department of Chemistry at Cleveland State University. -
The implementation of a GC/MS data system using DISNET: a Distributed Instrument System NETwork
(East Carolina University, 1984)The primary goal of a computer network is to achieve resource sharing between several computers. Resource sharing is most easily performed at the application program level, with lower layers of software providing communications ... -

Wurster's crown ligands
(2001-07-17)Wurster's crown ligands comprise a macrocyclic ligand such as a crown ether in which a hetero atom is substituted with a 1,4-phenylenediamine group. The phenylenediamine group is covalently bound to the macrocyclic ligand ... -
Wurster's crown ligands
(2002-08-27)Wurster's crown ligands comprise a macrocyclic ligand such as a crown ether in which a hetero atom is substituted with a 1,4-phenylenediamine group. The phenylenediamine group is covalently bound to the macrocyclic ligand ... -
Biimidazole diamide anion binding agents
(2006-07-18)Biimidazole diamide compounds that are useful for binding anions such as sulfate are described, along with the use thereof for purposes such as extracting anions from a waste stream and/or detecting anions. -
Tissue lockable connecting structures
(2006-08-01)Percutaneous skin access devices include a plurality of locked connecting units mounted to the exterior surface of an implantable medical object which, in position, is configured to penetrate the skin of a subject. The ... -
NMR characterizations of an amyloidogenic conformational ensemble of the PI3K SH3 domain
(East Carolina University, 2006-11)Amyloid formation is associated with structural changes of native polypeptides to monomeric intermediate states and their self-assembly into insoluble aggregates. Characterizations of the amyloidogenic intermediate state ... -
Identification of the Cu(II) Coordinating Residues in the Prion Protein by Metal-Catalyzed Oxidation Mass Spectrometry: Evidence for Multiple Isomers at Low Cu(II) Loadings
(East Carolina University, 2008-09-02)While the Cu(II) binding sites of the prion protein have been well studied under Cu-saturation conditions, the identity of the residues involved in coordinating Cu(II) at low stoichiometries and the order in which the ... -
Thermodynamic Investigations into Copper Binding in the N-Terminal Region of the Prion Protein at Low Copper Loadings
(East Carolina University, 2010)The prion protein (PrP) is a naturally occurring protein found at high levels in central nervous system (CNS). The misfolding of the PrP is responsible for neurodegenerative diseases called transmissible spongioform ... -
Thermodynamic Investigation of Copper Binding to the Amyloid-Beta (A[beta]) Peptide
(East Carolina University, 2010)Alzheimer's disease is a fatal and neurodegenerative disease with as many as 5.3 million Americans living with the disease. One of the characteristic hallmarks of Alzheimer's is the amyloid plaques that build up around the ... -
A Molecular Dynamics Study into Annexin A1 Induced Membrane Binding and Aggregation
(East Carolina University, 2010)Annexins constitute a family of proteins that bind to anionic membranes in a reversible and calcium dependent manner through the unique architecture of their calcium binding sites. In addition, annexins with relatively ... -
Thermodynamic Investigation into the Binding Properties of Cardiac Troponin (Human and Bovine)
(East Carolina University, 2010)Troponin is an integral protein in the mechanism of muscle contraction. In order to induce cardiac muscle contraction, Ca[superscript]2[superscript]+ must bind to the TnC subunit (calcium binding subunit) of troponin to ... -
Prothymosin-Alpha : Features of the protein sequence that contribute to the anti-HIV Activity
(East Carolina University, 2010)Prothymosin-alpha (ProT[alpha]) is a protein mainly located in the nucleus of the cells. Though its exact function is not known, it is believed to be involved in cell proliferation. The ability of this protein to inhibit ... -
Surfactant Assisted Electrospray Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry of Synthetic Polymers
(East Carolina University, 2010)Synthetic polymers are complex mixtures which often require extensive characterization to determine chemical composition and structure. Mass spectrometric techniques have greatly enhanced the quantity, as well as the ... -
