A model-based approach for mining membrane protein crystallization trials
MOTIVATION Membrane proteins are known to play crucial roles in various cellular functions. Information about their function can be derived from their structure, but knowledge of these proteins is limited, as their structures are difficult to obtain. Crystallization has proved to be an essential step in the determination of macromolecular structure. Unfortunately, the bottleneck is that the cry...
متن کاملIntegrated Membrane Desalination Systems with Membrane Crystallization Units for Resource Recovery: A New Approach for Mining from the Sea
The mining industry is facing problems of clean production in terms of mineral processing, pollution, water consumption, and renewable energy. An interesting outlook can be to combine the mining industry with membrane-based desalination in the logic of mining from the sea. In fact, several of the drawbacks found in both mining and desalination can be minimized or overcome, which includes hinder...
متن کاملCrystallization of Membrane Protein Nanoparticles
The self-assembly of membrane proteins from solution into two-dimensional crystals is studied numerically using a continuum model proposed by Talanquer and Oxtoby (J. Chem. Phys. 109, 223 (1998)). Although the mean field theory presented here is only qualitatively accurate in two dimensions, we obtain the main features of the crystal nucleation process, such as the nucleation free energy barrie...
متن کاملA pedestrian guide to membrane protein crystallization.
Membrane protein structural biology is a frontier area of modern biomedical research. Twenty to thirty-five percent of the proteins encoded by an organism's genome are integral membrane proteins. Integral membrane proteins, such as channels, transporters, and receptors, are critical components of many fundamental biological processes. Also, many integral membrane proteins are important in biome...
متن کاملModel based robust control approach for batch crystallization product design
The paper presents a novel control approach for crystallization processes, which can be used for designing the shape of the crystal size distribution to robustly achieve desired product properties. The approach is based on a robust optimal control scheme, which takes parametric uncertainties into account to provide decreased batch-to-batch variability of the shape of the crystal size distributi...
