Mycobacteria, metals, and the macrophage
(Wiley, 2015-03)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a facultative intracellular pathogen that thrives inside host macrophages. A key trait of M. tuberculosis is to exploit and manipulate metal cation trafficking inside infected macrophages to ...
Measurements of WW and WZ production in W + jets final states in pp[over ¯] collisions
(2012-05-02)
We study WW and WZ production with ℓνqq (ℓ = e, µ) final states using data collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider corresponding to 4.3 fb⁻¹ of integrated luminosity from pp[over ¯] collisions at √s ...
Large enhancement of Forster resonance energy transfer on graphene platforms
(AIP Publishing, 2013-12-12)
In view of the applications of Forster resonant energy transfer (FRET) in biological systems which especially require FRET in the infrared region, we investigate the great advantage of graphene plasmonics in such studies. ...
Comparison of Bayesian models to estimate direct genomic values in multi-breed commercial beef cattle
(BioMed Central, 2015-04-01)
Background: While several studies have examined the accuracy of direct genomic breeding values (DGV) within and across purebred cattle populations, the accuracy of DGV in crossbred or multi-breed cattle populations has ...
Cryogenic temperatures as a path toward high-Q terahertz metamaterials
(AIP Publishing, 2010-02-19)
Optical properties of planar thin film metamaterials were measured at room and liquid nitrogen temperatures using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. The operation of metamaterials at cryogenic temperatures is anticipated ...
Teaching research writing with disciplinary corpora
(TESOL, 2016-03)
Updated checklist of the mosquitoes of Oklahoma including new state records and West Nile virus vectors, 2003-06
(The American Mosquito Control Association, 2015-12)
The mosquito fauna of Oklahoma has not been evaluated since 1965 and no report has been published concerning species associated with urban areas in the state. Mosquito collections were conducted as part of the West Nile ...
Nature reserves as catalysts for landscape change
(Ecological Society of America, 2012-02-14)
Scientists have called repeatedly for a broader conservation agenda that emphasizes not only protected areas but also the landscapes in which those areas are embedded. We describe key advances in the science and practice ...
Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) as a tool for dissecting the molecular mechanisms for maturation of the Shigella type III secretion needle tip complex
(MDPI, 2012-11-16)
Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) provides a powerful tool for monitoring intermolecular interactions and a sensitive technique for studying A-level protein conformational changes. One system that has particularly ...
NMR studies of membrane proteins
(Springer Nature, 2010-01-01)
Nuclear magnetic resonance studies of membrane proteins yield valuable insights into their structure and topology. For example, the tilt angle and rotation of the helices in an ion channel can be determined by solid-state ...
