Highly Efficient Generation of Hierarchical Surface Models
We present a highly efficient, automatic method for the generation of hierarchical surface triangulations. Given a set of scattered points in three-dimensional space, without known connectivity information, our method reconstructs a valid triangulated surface model in a two-step procedure. First, we apply clustering to the set of given points and identify point subsets in locally nearly planar ...
متن کاملImproved polymerase ribozyme efficiency on hydrophobic assemblies.
During an early step in the evolution of life, RNA served both as genome and as catalyst, according to the RNA world hypothesis. For self-replication, the RNA organisms must have contained an RNA that catalyzes RNA polymerization. As a first step toward recapitulating an RNA world in the laboratory, a polymerase ribozyme was generated previously by in vitro evolution and design. However, the ef...
متن کاملEngineered peptides for nanohybrid assemblies.
Inspired by biological material synthesis, synthetic biomineralization peptides have been screened through a laboratory evolution using biocombinatorial techniques. In this study, using the fine examples in nature, silica binding peptides and gold binding peptides were fused together to form a hybrid peptide. We designed fusion peptides with different gold binding and silica binding parts. Firs...
متن کاملSynthesis and Purification of Highly Hydrophobic Peptides Derived from the C-Terminus of Amyloid β-Protein.
Some biotechnological inventions involve expensive, sophisticated machines. Others are relatively simple innovations that nevertheless address, and solve difficult problems. Synthesis and purification of highly hydrophobic peptides can be a difficult and challenging task, particularly when these peptides have low solubility in both aqueous and organic solvents. Here we describe the synthesis an...
متن کاملThe Role of Arginine-Phenylalanine-Amide-Related Peptides in Mammalian Reproduction
Until 2000 it was believed that gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) was the sole regulator of hypophyseal gonadotropes. In 2000, the discovery of a gonadotropin inhibitory hormone (GnIH) initiated a revolution in the field of reproductive physiology. Identification of GnIH homologues in mammals, the arginine-phenylalanine- amide (RFamide)-related peptides (RFRPs), indicated a similar function...
