bacteriorhodopsin (br) is the light harvesting and photoactive proton pump found in the membrane of a salt marsh bacteria. this protein has significant potential to use in optical computing and memory devices due to unique intrinsic physical properties of photo and bioelectric. all these features make br one of the most promising protein candidates in protein memories. protein memory is a kind ...

proteins are fundamental components of cells which mediate many essential biological processes. proteomics is a rapidly growing field for the study of proteome, the protein complement expressed by the genome of an organism or cell type. the large-scale analysis of proteins leads to a more comprehensive view of molecular and cellular pathways that improves the overall understanding of the comple...

in order to improve uv and visible lights photocatalytic activities of the pure anatase tio2, a novel and efficient n-doped tio2 photocatalyst was prepared by sol-gel method. n-doped titania is prepared using triethylamine (with difference molar ratios) as the nitrogen source. the crystalline structure, morphology, particle size, absorbance and band-gap and chemical structure of n-doped tio2 wa...

In order to improve photocatalytic activities of the pure anatase TiO2 under UV and visible light irradiations, a novel and efficient N-doped TiO2 photocatalyst was prepared by sol-gel method. N-doped titania is prepared using the various nitrogen sources such as: triethylamine, N,N,N’,N’-tetramethylethane-1,2-diamine, ethyldiamine, 1,2-phenylenediamine, propanolamine, and...

extraction of trace amounts of toxic heavy metals from complicated environmental matrixes is a  challenging task. the aim of this investigation is the comparison of the extraction efficiencies and other related experimental variables ( chemicals, effect of ph, potential interfering ions) on the determination of inorganic lead ( ) which is present in waste water of dye industries. compared techn...

methylmalonic acidemia (mma) is usually caused by a deficiency of the enzyme methylmalonyl-coa mutase (mcm), a defect in the transport or synthesis of its cofactor, adenosyl-cobalamin (cbla, cblb, cblc, cblf, cbld, and cblx), or deficiency of the enzyme methylmalonyl-coa epimerase. a comprehensive diagnostic approach involves investigations of metabolites with tandem mass spectrometry, organic ...

This study investigated proteomic changes occurring in Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles stephensi during adult mosquito aging. These changes were evaluated using two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and the identities of aging related proteins were determined using capillary high-pressure liquid chromatography (capHPLC) coupled with a linear ion-trap (LTQ)-Orbitrap XL hybrid ...
