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 ...
Solvent-Controlled Switch of Selectivity between sp[superscript]2 and s[superscript]p3 C-H Bond Activation by Platinum (II)
(East Carolina University, 2010)
Cyclometalation reactions have been studied intensely for the past few decades, especially those containing palladium. The factors that control the process of the C-H bond activation, however, are not yet completely ...
