Calculation, utilization, and inference of spatial statistics in practical spatio-temporal data
The direct influence of spatial and structural arrangement in various length scales to the performance characteristics of materials is a core premise of materials science. Spatial correlations in the form of n-point statistics have been shown to be very effective in robustly describing the …

Investigations of The Structure-Function Relationship In Kainate Receptors Using FöRster Resonance Energy Transfer
… and epilepsy. In recent years a wealth of structural data has become available for the AMPA and NMDA classes; however, the structural characterization of kainate receptors has been limited. The work in this dissertation utilizes luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) and …

Characterising catalyst preparation: from adsorbed precursor complex to catalyst particle
… The deposition of metal particles and the structural arrangement they adopt once impregnated on a support is therefore of interest in determining the necessary conditions required for maximum catalyst efficiency. The details of the relationship between precursor and the final catalyst …

Site Directed Mutagenesis of a Putative Protease Cleavage Site Within the 105 Kilodation Protein of Southern Bean Mosaic Virus
… to be the cleavage sites based on 1) similar structural arrangement around the two QS pairs to that of known cleavage sites of picornaviruses and potyviruses; 2) computer prediction of the cleavage products from the SBMV RNA sequence; 3) observed in vitro translation products. In order to …

CaV3.2 Channels and BKCa-Mediated Feedback in Vascular Smooth Muscle
… ryanodine receptors (RyR). Disruption of the structural arrangement impaired the ability of CaV3.2 to mediate BKCa-mediated feedback in intact resistance arteries. Final experiments revealed that CaV3.2 channels are targeted by common vasoactive stimuli through unique signaling pathways. Of …

Reading character in Suetonius’ De vita Caesarum
… linked with discussions of the text’s structural arrangement. I address how textual structure can contribute to character construction by utilizing fields of cognitive narratology, including reader-oriented criticism and theories of text-processing. Chapter 1 considers how aspects of …

The interplay between order and disorder in cholesteric hydroxypropyl cellulose films
Structural colouration originates from the physical interaction between light and nanostructured materials, unlike pigments and dyes, where colour is achieved by selective absorption. The formation of a cholesteric liquid crystalline phase is one route to achieve such structuring on the nanoscale. …

Developmental Changes In The Structure and Composition of The Postsynaptic Density
… tasks, and activity-dependent changes in their structural and physiological state is one way that the brain is thought to adapt and store information. At the ultrastructural level, developmental and activity-dependent changes in the size and shape of dendritic spines have been well documented, …

Tools for the formation of optimised X-80 steel blast tolerant transverse bulkheads
… rather than on the development of a single structural arrangement. Design criteria were formed from the worst case operational requirements for a transverse bulkhead, which would experience a 150 kg equivalent blast load at 8 m from the source. Since the development of any optimised blast …

Characterisation of the molecular complexes that regulate the G2/M checkpoint of the eukaryotic cell cycle
… unit is likely to be a 2:2 wee1/14-3-3β arrangement. It was proposed that the structural architecture of this complex may be similar to the serotonin N-acetyltransferase/14-3-3ζ complex. Experiments to determine the structure experimentally, using either TEM or x-ray crystallography, were …

The Ab Initio Calculation of the Chemical Shift Tensor and its Application for the Structure Determination in Ordered and Disordered Phases by Means of Solid-State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
… structure determination and prediction. Besides structural modelling this included the ab initio calculation of the chemical shift tensor which was taken for the simulation of various solid-state NMR experiments and the comparison to NMR measurements. In this context it was necessary to create a …
