چکیده
We report an approach to position gold nanoparticle catalysts for metal reduction asymmetrically on a biological template (E. coli) by exploiting the polarity of the bacterial cell envelope undergoing growth and division.

Using bacterial cell growth to template catalytic asymmetryw
The use of biological structures to template inorganic materials has become an increasingly widespread strategy to develop otherwise synthetically inaccessible hierarchical structures under mild chemical conditions, for use as catalytic and device materials. For example, proteins, peptides, DNA, viruses, cells and multicellular structures have been employed as templates to develop inorganic par...
متن کاملEffect of Preparation Methods and Pluronic Template on the Catalytic Activity of Ca/SBA-15
Two approaches for metal ion incorporation were employed to introduce Ca2+ into SBA-15; Direct Synthesis (DS) and Wet Impregnation (WI). The non-ionic template was removed by two different methods; calcination and solvent extraction. The obtained catalysts were characterized by means of X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), and FT-IR spectroscopy. The bas...
متن کاملPreparation of H-ZSM-5 Nano-Zeolite Using Mixed Template Method and its Activity Evaluation for ethanol to DME Reaction
H-ZSM-5 nano-zeolites were synthesized by hydrothermal method using tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) as a template in the presence of various TPABr concentrations. The effect of different TPABr/TPAOH molar ratios was studied on the catalytic performance of dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether (DME) in a fixed bed reactor under the same operating conditions (T=300°C, P=1 atm, and WHSV=...
متن کاملDesign and Production of Recombinant TAT Protein Structure, Catalytic Domain of Diphtheria Toxin, and Evaluation of Its Effect on Cell Line
Background and Objectives: Cancer is one of the most deadly diseases in the present age and its conventional therapies have had low success. Toxin therapy of cancer is a new therapeutic approach, which has attracted the attention of pharmaceutical specialists. Diphtheria toxin consists of three functional, transducing, and binding domains, that the functional part inhibits protein synthesis and...
متن کاملExpression of a Chimeric Protein Containing the Catalytic Domain of Shiga-Like Toxin and Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (hGM-CSF) in Escherichia coli and Its Recognition by Reciprocal Antibodies
Fusion of two genes at DNA level produces a single protein, known as a chimeric protein. Immunotoxins are chimeric proteins composed of specific cell targeting and cell killing moieties. Bacterial or plant toxins are commonly used as the killing moieties of the chimeric immunotoxins. In this investigation, the catalytic domain of Shiga-like toxin (A1) was fused to human granulocyte macrophage ...
