Analysis of the Antibody Binding of Derivative MUC1 Peptides via STD NMR
(2015-04)
This study analyzes the binding ability of the peptide GVTSAPD, an upstream sequence preceding PDTRP, as well as six derivative peptides against specific mouse MUC1 mucin monoclonal antibody (IgG1, 6A4) by Saturation ...

Quantum Mechnical/Molecular Mechanical Simulations of the Hydride Transfer Reactions in Quinone Reductase 2
(2015-04)
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the protein matrix on the energetics of the hydride transfer reaction, as well as understanding the role of the aromatic side chains on the hydride transfer reaction.
Tuning Smart Properties of mPEG-block-PDMAEMA Through Polymer Composition
(2017-11-15)
The purpose of this study was to study smart polymers. “Smart” polymers respond to changes in their environment with
a measureable change in property. Some smart polymers can
change their solubility when the conditions ...
Kinetics of Naphthalimide Aminolysis
(2015-04)
We have carried out kinetic studies using triethylamine as the base solvent in order to determine the kinetic order of the reaction with respect to the butylamine. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that ...
Steric and Catalytic Effects of Alcohols on the Transamination of Napthalimides
(2017-11-14)
This experiment describes a systematic study of the effects of the size of
alcohols on the transamination of N-(3-chlorophenyl)-4-chloro-1,8-
naphthalimide.
Modeling of the Gamma-Glutamyl Carboxylase Reaction
(2015-04)
The purpose of this study was to discuss the results of this computation study about modeling the gamma-glutamyl carboxylase reaction, which is responsible for clotting factors in the blood.
When Push Comes to Shove : Limitations of Hydrogen Bonded Liquid Crystal/Inhibitor Networks
(2017-11-22)
A liquid crystal is state of matter that simultaneously displays properties of
both a liquid and a solid. Liquid crystals have applications in liquid crystal
displays (LCDs) and optical imaging technology. Liquid crystals ...
An IR and Computational Study of Pyridine-HCI and Its Fluorinated Analogs
(2017-03-28)
Condensed phase effects on structure/bonding H-bonded complexes, e.g. H[3]N-HCI, CH[3]CN-HCI. A key issue is how medium effects affect extent of proton transfer. We are exploring pyridine and its fluorinated analogs as N ...
Exploring the Role of Distant Domain Dynamics in Substrate Binding of Escherichia Coli Prolyl-tRNA Synthetase
(2015-04)
Our results demonstrate that the presence of the INS is critical to provide the required energy barrier for the substrate to be bound to the catalytic core, instead of getting spontaneously hydrolyzed.
