Enhanced Sensitivity of Lateral Flow Strip Biosensors Based on Enyzmatic Reaction and Nanomaterials
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Ultrasensitive detection for trace amount of proteins plays pivotal role in the diagnosis of specific diseases in clinical application, basic discovery research and the improvement of proteomics. Recently, lateral flow ...
New Insights into Apoptosis-Inducing Factor Mediated Pro-Survival Activity
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth of cells and is caused by the accumulation of genetic mutations that contribute to cell division, cell growth, and the DNA repair system. According to ...
Examining Thieno[3,4-b]pyrazine Through a Multifaceted Lens: From Extended Ring Functionalization to Ambipolar-Acceptor Copolymers
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
A class of materials known as conjugated polymers (CPs) has been shown to integrate the physical properties of organic plastics such as low-weight, flexibility, and synthetic modularity with electronic semiconducting ...
Synthesis of Novel Biomass-derived Diol and Epoxide Monomers for Coatings Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
There are few monomers or precursors in the polymer industry that are more ubiquitous than bisphenol A (BPA). According to the CDC, about 5-6 billion pounds of BPA are produced worldwide annually. For the synthesis of ...
Mechanistic Investigation of Catalytic Chlorite Decomposition by Chlorite Dismutase
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Water purification processes often involve chlorine-based disinfectants which consequently leads to formation of chloro oxyanions (ClOx−), potent water-soluble oxidizing agents. These chlorine species are kinetically stable ...
Differential Modulation of the Structural and Functional Characteristics of Human Matrix Metalloproteinase Isozymes upon Binding to Different Ligands
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of Zn2
+ -dependent, Ca2
+ -containing
endoproteinases involved in tissue remodeling and degradation of the extracellular matrix
(ECM). Human MMP isozymes are known to be ...
Influence of Active Site Ligands and Nanoparticle Surfaces on Human Carbonic Anhydrase Isozymes
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is an ubiquitously distributed zinc containing metallo
enzyme that catalyzes the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide to form bicarbonate and a
proton. Existence of 16 isoenzymes of CA in the ...
