Myo-inositol hexakisphosphate, or phytic acid, (myo-IP6) is a key organic phosphorus (P) compound in soils and manures. Determinations of myo-IP6 in soils and manure extracts are frequently performed by 31P NMR spectroscopy. This approach is time-consuming in terms of both
Minimally invasive measurements of neuronal activity are essential for understanding how signal processing is performed by neuronal networks. While optical strategies for making such measurements hold great promise, optical sensors generally lack the speed and sensitivity necessary to record neuronal
Chirality-induced spin selectivity is a recently-discovered effect, which results in spin selectivity for electrons transmitted through chiral peptide monolayers. Here, we use this spin selectivity to probe the organization of self-assembled α-helix peptide monolayers and examine the relation between structural
Chemical and enzymatic modifications of amino acid residues in protein after translation contain rich information about physiological conditions and diseases. Histone acetylation/deacetylation is the essential post-translational modification by regulating gene transcription. Such qualitative changes of biomacromolecules need to be detected
Breast cancer research : BCR, 12(5), R84-R84 (2010-10-16)
17-allyamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), a small molecule inhibitor of Hsp90, is currently in clinical trials in breast cancer. However, 17-AAG treatment often results in inhibition of tumor growth rather than shrinkage, making detection of response a challenge. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and
