The new crystal structures of the product-bound firefly luciferase combined with the previously determined substrate-free structures allow for a detailed analysis of the dynamics basis for the luciferase enzymatic activities. Using the Gaussian network model and the anisotropic network model
Many volatile oils are known to possess antifungal properties and are potentially applicable as antimycotic agents. By studying the efficacy of essential oils against different pathogenic mycetes, we have evaluated the in-vitro inhibiting activity of some essential oils and their

A novel method of preparing AgCl nanoparticles by mixing AgCl powder and a microemulsion consisting of dioctyldimethylammonium chloride/n-decanol/water/isooctane is introduced. This new method was discovered during the preparation of AgCl nanoparticles in single microemulsions by direct reaction with the dioctyldimethylammonium

Bolaform amides were designed from N,N'-bis(carboethoxy-L-valinyl)-diaminoethane (1) by linking t-butyloxycarbonyl-valine through ethylenediamine (EDA) to enable spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction analyses. N,N'-Bis(Boc-L-valinyl)-diaminoethane (2) and N,N'-bis(Boc-D-valinyl)-diaminoethane (3) were composed of L-Val and D-Val, respectively. N-(Boc-L-valinyl)-N'-(Boc-D-valinyl)-diaminoethane (4) was composed of both L-Val and
