Novel Building Blocks for Molecular Imprinting: Pyridine-Based Binding Monomers and Bio-Renewable Cross-Linkers
… ion, molecule, complex or a molecular, ionic or macromolecular assembly, including micro-organisms) used as a template to direct the synthesis of the material, a Molecularly Imprinted Polymer (MIP). Here we would like to report on the development of Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) for the …

Responsive polymers for optical sensing applications
… relying on the delicate supramolecular assembly of a thermoresponsive copolymer with a thiophene-based conjugated polyelectrolyte. Alternatively, by taking advantage of the sensitivity of solvatochromic fluorophores, an increase in solution temperature or the presence of analytes was …

Conformational Dynamics of the Nuclear Pore Complex Studied With Coarse-Grained Modelling and Polarized Light Microscopy
… The NPC is a large (~120 MDa in humans) macromolecular assembly that controls the flow of molecules into and out of the nucleus. The NPC is a key regulator of intracellular trafficking, nuclear organization, and gene expression. The study of this cellular gatekeeper is hampered by its …

Structure and Organization of Nuclear Pore Proteins
<p>The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a large macromolecular assembly that controls the flow of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Elucidating the structure and organization of this complex will be crucial to understanding the mechanism of nucleocytoplasmic transport, but due to its …

Evolution and assembly of the ribosome
The ribosome is a large macromolecular assembly responsible for protein synthesis in all living cells. A typical bacterial ribosome consists of three ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules and approximately fifty ribosomal proteins (r-proteins), which are arranged into two subunits of unequal size and …

The <i>C. neoformans</i> Cell Wall: A Scaffold for Virulence
… incompletely-defined structures of the resulting macromolecular fungal assemblies. In this work we use solid-state NMR (ssNMR), a technique uniquely suited to study complex and heterogeneous composite materials, to obtain a molecular level characterization of the cellular “scaffold” on which …
