Variable-Temperature Micro-Four-Point Probe Method for Surface Electrical Conductivity Measurements in Ultrahigh Vacuum

, 2003
We have developed a ultrahigh-vacuum system for electrical conductivity measurements with high surface sensitivity by using monolithic micro-four-point probe method (probe spacing being ∼ μ m) at temperatures ranging from ∼10 K to 400 K, combined with ...

Thermal diffractive corrections to Casimir energies

, 2011
We study the interplay of thermal and diffractive effects in Casimir energies. We consider plates with edges, oriented either parallel or perpendicular to each other, as well as a single plate with a slit.

Thermostable neutral metalloprotease from Geobacillus sp. EA1 does not share thermolysin's preference for substrates with leucine at the P1′ position

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Knowing how proteases recognise preferred substrates facilitates matching proteases to applications. The S1′ pocket of protease EA1 directs cleavage to the N‐terminal side of hydrophobic residues, particularly leucine. The S1′ pocket of thermolysin differs from EA's at only one position (leucine in place of phenylalanine), which decreases cleavage ...
