Protein folding and design are major biophysical problems, the solution of which would lead to important applications especially in medicine. Here we provide evidence of how a novel parametrization of the Caterpillar model may be used for both quantitative protein design and folding. With computer simulations it is shown that, for a large set of real protein structures, the model produces desig...

a convenient, one-pot method for the synthesis of diazonium salt has been developed by the sequential diazotization of aromatic amines with nano2, polymer- supported periodic acid (ppia) and 2-naphthole under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. by using this method, several types of aromatic amine, containing electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups, were rapidly converted to ...

The internet permits inexpensive and rapid communication of multiple forms of information across geographical boundaries. The authors describe the development of an internet based mailing list and web site to coordinate the regionwide accident and emergency specialist registrar teaching programme. The process entailed in setting up these resources is explained. The initial experiences of implem...
