(2011-10-21)Morphing air vehicles enable more efficient and capable multi-role aircraft by adapting their shape to reach an ideal configuration in an ever-changing environment. Morphing capability is envisioned to have a profound ...
-
(2016-02-12)As the world population battles drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB), there is an urgent need for novel anti-tubercular drugs. This dissertation documents the studies of glyoxylate shunt enzymes, isocitrate lyase (ICL) and ...
-
(2019-11-21)Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), a gram positive bacterium, expresses multiple surface proteins (MSCRAMMs) that target host proteins for its colonization on the host tissue and later for the pathogenesis. ClfA is a ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)Density functional calculations with the B3-LYP functional were used to optimize the platinum-carbon cationic clusters, PtCx+, 1=x=16, in both the doublet and quartet states of the linear, fan, open-ring, closed ring, and ...
-
(2014-07-25)Wind energy is one of the most promising and mature alternatives to satisfy the global demand for energy as the world population and the economic activity surge. The wind energy market has grown rapidly in the last couple ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This study describes the structural and depositional evolution in the KH field in West Natuna Basin, Indonesia. Data for the study were acquired by three-dimensional (3D) seismic reflection volume and a complete suite of ...

(Physical Review B - Condensed Matter and Materials Physics, 2000)
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)Here, we present the program QContacts, which implements Voronoi polyhedra to determine atomic and residue contacts across the interface of a protein-protein interaction. While QContacts also describes hydrogen bonds, ionic ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1995)In vitro cell model systems derived from rat granuloma cells were developed for the study of multistep ovarian carcinogenesis. Spontaneously immortalized rat granuloma cells (SIGC) were transfected with either the pSV3neo ...
-
(2009-05-15)The lymphatic system returns interstitial fluid back to the blood circulation. They have a network of vessels with numerous lymphangions, the segment of lymphatic vessel between two unidirectional valves. The valves aid ...
-
(2012-11-13)The Amidohydrolase Superfamily (AHS) of enzymes is one of the most structurally and functionally studied groups of biological catalysts, exquisitely designed to carry out an extensive number of reactions defined by a similar ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)The horned condition in cattle is believed to be the wild type with morphogenesis primarily occurring after birth. The polled condition has existed since domestication and has been selected for its economic importance. The ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Aspartate Transcarbamoylase (ATCase, carbamoylphosphate: L-aspartate carbamoyltransferase, EC 2.1.3.2) and Ornithine transcarbamoylase (OTCase, carbamoylphosphate: L-ornithine carbamoyltransferase, EC 2.1.3.3) both catalyze ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1994)aspartate transcarbamoylases (EC 2.1.3.2, ATCase) which are structurally similar, unique differences in homotropic and heterotropic regulation are present among the divergent species. The ATCase holoenzyme from Escheiichia ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)The aspartate transcarbamoylases (E.C.2.1.3.2, ATCase) from enteric bacteria possess structural and functional similarities, although unique differences in homotropic and heterotropic regulation of enzymatic activity exist ...
-
(2009-05-15)Chemokines are important mediators of leukocyte migration. Chemokines bind to G protein–coupled receptors (GPCR) and cause conformational changes that trigger intracellular signaling pathways involved in inflammation, ...
-
(2010-10-12)The biological function of RNA is often linked to an ability to adopt one or more mutually exclusive conformational states or isomers, a characteristic that distinguishes this biomolecule from proteins. Two examples of ...
-
(2012-10-19)MshA is a glycosyltransferase that synthesizes the precursor of mycothiol, a low-molecular-weight thiol found exclusively in Actinomycetes, including the virulent pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The structure ...
-
(2012-07-16)Chemokines are small immune system proteins mediating leukocyte migration and activation, and are important in many aspects of health and diseases. Some chemokines also have the ability to block HIV-1 infection by binding ...
