Quantifying labile protein-ligand interactions using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry
Download2010
El-Hawiet, Amr, Klassen, John S., Kitova, Elena N., Liu, Lan
A new electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ES-MS) approach for quantifying protein—ligand complexes that are prone to in-source (gas-phase) dissociation is described. The method, referred to here as the reference ligand ES-MS method, is based on the direct ES-MS assay and competitive ligand...

Molecular transition metal catalysts offer unique potential for the production of fine chemicals. Chemical processes carried out in the presence of well defined molecular catalysts often only require mild, easily accessible conditions, fewer sacrificial reagents, and can selectively produce a...

Reading Rawls’s Lectures on Hobbes’s Leviathan: Pluralism, Stability, and Political Consensus
DownloadSpring 2014
This work examines Rawls’s lectures on Hobbes, which are delivered at a time when Rawls is developing his political liberalism. It especially seeks to question the foundations of Rawls’s interpretation of Hobbes’s Leviathan as presenting a core “political” doctrine based around prudential egoism....

In this dissertation, I undertake a critical analysis of the conception of community at work in what is termed “identity-based politics.” Working with Hannah Arendt’s implicit argument about place and visibility, I develop a theory of recognition in order to rethink the nature of community. The...

This thesis is concerned with understanding the shame that often accompanies acne and acne scarring, as an instance of shame that accompanies bodily abnormality or disability, with the aim of exploring strategies of resistance. (1) I explore the explanandum by appealing to the language used by...

Screening oligosaccharide libraries against lectins using the proxy protein electrospray ionization mass spectrometry assay
Download2016
Kitova, Elena N., Klassen, John S., Fan, Xuxin, Privé, Gilbert G., Cairo, Christopher W., Xiong, Zi Jian, Ng, Kenneth K. S., Zou, Chunxia, Eugenio, Luiz, Li, Jun
An electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) assay for screening carbohydrate libraries against lectins is described. The assay is based on the proxy protein ESI-MS method, which combines direct ESI-MS protein–ligand binding measurements and competitive protein binding, to simultaneously...

Multilateral systems involving haptic information sharing between several users have recently found interesting applications in cooperative haptic teleoperation and haptic-assisted training. It is intuitively understood that some tasks are performed more effectively with two hands or through...
