X-RAY CRYSTAL STRUCTURES AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PRODUCTS FROM THE INTERACTIONS OF MYOGLOBIN WITH NITROGEN OXIDES AND ARYLHYDRAZINES, AND NITROREDUCTASE INTERACTIONS WITH ORGANIC NITRO COMPOUNDS
(2016-05)
This thesis describes research into the roles that metalloproteins and non-metalloproteins play in the biological inorganic/organic chemistry of common nitrogen oxides. There are three main chapters on this work: the first ...
THE DEVELOPMENT OF FERROCENE-MODIFIED LINEAR POLY(ETHYLENIMINE) REDOX POLYMERS AND THEIR APPLICATION IN AMPEROMETRIC GLUCOSE BIOSENSORS AND COMPARTMENT-LESS BIOFUEL CELLS
(2010)
A series of redox polymers was synthesized by attaching various ferrocene derivatives to linear poly(ethylenimine) (LPEI). These polymers displayed a remarkable ability to shuttle electrons from the active site of the ...
VARIABLE TEMPERATURE DIFFUSE REFLECTION INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY AND THERMOGRAVIMETRY- MASS SPECTROMETRY INVESTIGATIONS OF BENZOIC ACID INTERACTIONS WITH SODIUM AND CALCIUM MONTMORILLONITE CLAYS
(2015-05-08)
Molecular interactions between benzoic acid and cations and water contained within montmorillonite clay interlayer spaces and processes involved in thermal desorption of benzoic acid from sodium and calcium montmorillonite ...
THE LIGAND BINDING PROPERTIES OF THE OXYSTEROL-BINDING PROTEIN FAMILY SUBFAMILY-I
(2018-12-14)
The oxysterol-binding protein/OSBP-related proteins (OSBP/ORPs) are a family of proteins conserved in all eukaryotes that have complex biological activities connected to lipid transport and lipid regulation. OSBP is ...
STRUCTURAL AND MUTAGENESIS STUDIES OF THE YEAST PHOSPHORELAY SIGNALING PROTEINS YPD1 AND SSK1
(2015-12)
His-Asp signaling systems are ubiquitous in bacteria, archaea, and certain plants and fungi. Little structural information is known about the protein-protein interactions within these signaling pathways, leaving an ...
DEVELOPMENT OF BENCHTOP CAPILLARY-BASED ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENTS FOR CHROMATOGRAPHIC SEPARATION AND DETECTION
(2018-05-01)
Point-of-Care (POC) analysis in recent years has driven the need for the miniaturization of chemistry instruments in the analytical field. One such instrument class involves chromatographic systems for the separation and ...
"Study of Lithium Triflate as an electrolyte in mixed ether-amine solvents" and "The use of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy to study Dielectric properties of materials"
(2011)
7Li and 19F Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) was used to investigate of the nature of lithium triflate dissolved in mixtures of ether and amine solvents. The transport of ions in the liquid and polymer ...
THE STRUCTURAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE INTERACTIONS OF MYOGLOBIN, HEMOGLOBIN, C. DIFFICILE NITROREDUCTASE AND CYTOCHROME P450 WITH N-CONTAINING COMPOUNDS
(2019-05)
The overall goal of my work was to probe the structural biology of drug metabolite protein interactions and to correlate this with the negative side effects associated with many prescription drugs. More specifically, the ...
CONSTANT-pH MOLECULAR DYNAMICS SIMULATIONS: DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATIONS
(2012)
Constant-pH molecular dynamics has recently emerged as a useful technique for studying the microscopic details underlying pH dependent properties of proteins. We further develop continuous constant-pH molecular dynamics ...
Mining Microbial Communities: Exploring Symbiotic Bacteria as a Source of New Natural Products
(2013)
As ubiquitous inhabitants of Earth, bacteria represent a diverse resource in the search for new natural products. In order for the field of natural products to progress, new and exciting sources of biodiversity must be ...
