Modeling Structure and Absorption Spectra of the Bacteriophytochrome-Based Fluorescent Protein IFP1.4

open access: yes, 2019
We report the results of quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) simulations of structures and absorption spectra of the fluorescent protein IFP1.4 engineered from the chromophore-binding domain of Deinococcus radiodurans (DrCBD).

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

KilonovAE: Exploring Kilonova Spectral Features with Autoencoders

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Kilonovae are likely a key site of heavy r -process element production in the Universe, and their optical/infrared spectra contain insights into both the properties of the ejecta and the conditions of the r -process. However, the event GW170817/AT2017gfo

Calculating Absorption and Fluorescence Spectra for Chromophores in Solution with Ensemble Franck-Condon Methods

open access: yes
Accurately modeling absorption and fluorescence spectra for molecules in solution poses a challenge due to the need to incorporate both vibronic and environmental effects, as well as the necessity of accurate excited state electronic structure ...

Electronic spectroscopy of cold cations in a 22-pole trap by indirect methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The confining capabilities of a 22-pole ion trap have been employed to mea- sure electronic spectra of cations of astrophysical relevance. The ion trap sits on the head of a closed cycle cryostat, enabling collisional cooling of the confined ions with

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

INVESTIGATION OF DIFFUSE INTERSTELLAR BANDS OF ORGANIC MOLECULES IN THE SPECTRA OF CEPHEID STARS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2016
We describe an effective method of investigation of the Diffuse Interstellar Bands (DIBs) in the spectra of Cepheid stars. DIBs are believed to originate from the absorption of such carriers as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the interstellar gaseous

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

Optical Absorption of the Antitrypanocidal Drug Benznidazole inWater

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
UV-vis optical absorption spectra of the antitrypanocidal drug benznidazole solvated in water were measured for various concentrations. The spectra show a prominent peak around 3.80 eV, while deconvolution of the UV-vis optical absorption spectra ...

The relationship between Gas and Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We have investigated the 2D 2-point correlation function, ƐAG, between low column density Lya absorbers and galaxies at a redshift z ~ 1 for the first time.
