Mammalian glycoconjugates are composed exclusively of sugar in the thermodynamically favorable pyranose ring form; on the other hand, sugars in the five-membered furanose ring form are widespread in many bacteria, fungi, and protozoan pathogens. This makes the enzymes involved in furanoside...

The study of heterobimetallic complexes (having two different metal atoms) involves combining the unique properties of each metal, which can give rise to interesting contrasts in reactivity compared to either metal alone. With two different metals incorporated into one complex, a more diverse...

5-Membered carbocycles are ubiquitous in natural products and synthetic drugs. Methods of generating them are therefore valuable, and the ability to do so in a stereospecific and enantioselective manner while making considerable gains in molecular complexity with additional incorporation of...

Fall 2014
Carbohydrate–protein interactions play key roles in a range of biological processes. Noticeable advancements have been made in understanding the features associated with the recognition of pyranosides (six-membered ring sugars) by proteins. In contrast, similar detailed studies about the...

Several series of quaternary chalcogenides were synthesized by high temperature reactions and their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction methods. Differences in electronic structure were examined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption near-edge...

The most often used biofluids in metabolomics and disease biomarker discovery studies in the literature include urine, processed blood (serum or plasma), and cerebral spinal fluid. While investigations using these biofluids have led to numerous innovations in the field of metabolomics, little...

Carbon/molecule/Cu/Au molecular junctions were fabricated on 4-inch silicon wafers using microfabrication techniques common in commercial semiconductor manufacturing. Electron-beam deposited carbon films are introduced as substrates, and the junctions exhibited high yield and excellent...
