Serpe, Michael J., Xu, Wenwen, Gao, Yongfeng
Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgel-based free-standing etalons have been developed by fabricating etalons on a solid support that has been coated with a sacrificial polymer layer. Therefore, the etalon could be easily removed from the solid substrate upon...

Dimeric structure of human na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 overproduced in saccharomyces cerevisiae
Download2008-01-01
Moncoq, Karine, Kemp, Grant, Li, Xiuju J., Fliegel, Larry, Young, Howard S.
The Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) is an integral membrane protein that regulates intracellular pH by extruding an intracellular H+ in exchange for one extracellular Na+. The human NHE1 isoform is involved in heart disease and cell growth and proliferation. Although details of NHE1 regulation...

Mitogen-activated protein kinase-dependent activation of the na+/H+ exchanger is mediated through phosphorylation of amino acids ser(770) and ser(771)

Malo, Mackenzie E., Li, Liang, Fliegel, Larry
We investigated regulation of the type 1 isoform of the Na+/H+ exchanger by phosphorylation. Four specific groups of serine and threonine residues in the regulatory carboxyl-terminal tail were mutated to alanine residues: group 1, S693A; group 2, T718A and S723A/S726A/S729A; group 3,...

Structural and functional analysis of transmembrane XI of the NHE1 isoform of the na+/H+ exchanger
Download2009-01-01
Lee, Brian L., Li, Xiuju J., Liu, Yongsheng, Sykes, Brian D., Fliegel, Larry
The Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 is a ubiquitously expressed integral membrane protein that regulates intracellular pH in mammals by extruding an intracellular H+ in exchange for one extracellular Na+. We characterized structural and functional aspects of the critical transmembrane (TM) segment XI...

Acid-base properties of cyanobacterial surfaces I: Influences of growth phase and nitrogen metabolism on cell surface reactivity
Download2008
Konhauser, K.O., Owttrim, G.W., Smith, D.S., Lalonde, S.V.
Significant efforts have been made to elucidate the chemical properties of bacterial surfaces for the purposes of refining surface complexation models that can account for their metal sorptive behavior under diverse conditions. However, the influence of culturing conditions on surface chemical...

Serpe, Michael J., Islam, Molla R.
In this submission we fabricated a humidity-responsive polymer-based actuator by layering negatively charged poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid microgels and positively charged poly(diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride) on top of a flexible plastic substrate. We show that the extent of the...

Electrocoalescence of Water Droplets in Oil Emulsions: Effect of Electric Fields, Surfactants, and Chemical Demulsifiers
DownloadSpring 2019
Stabilization of water-in-oil droplets during bitumen extraction and refining process poses a major challenge in the oil sands industry. These crude oil emulsions are stabilized by rigid films at water droplet-oil interfaces. The salty water remaining in oil causes equipment corrosion, catalyst...

Structural and functional analysis of transmembrane segment VI of the NHE1 isoform of the na+/H+ exchanger
Download2009-01-01
Tzeng, Jennifer, Lee, Brian L., Sykes, Brian D., Fliegel, Larry
The Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 is a ubiquitously expressed integral membrane protein. It resides on the plasma membrane of cells and regulates intracellular pH in mammals by extruding an intracellular H+ in exchange for one extracellular Na+. We characterized structural and functional aspects of...

Deformation and evolution of solar wind discontinuities through their interactions with the Earth's bow shock
Download2009
Kabin, Konstantin, Keika, Kunihiro, Rankin, Robert, Carr, C. M., Carlson, C. W., Glassmeier, Karl-Heinz, Magnes, Werner, Lucek, Elizabeth, McFadden, J. P., Dandouras, Iannis, Auster, H. U., Sibeck, D. G., Fornacon, K.-H., Angelopoulos, Vassilis, Baumjohann, W., Nakamura, Rumi
The present study examines the interaction of solar wind discontinuities with the Earth's bow shock, using multipoint observations in the magnetosheath by Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions During Substorms (THEMIS), Cluster, and Double Star TC1. We focus on the deformation and...
