Modulation of HU-DNA interactions by salt concentration and applied force. [PDF]
, 2010 HU is one of the most abundant proteins in bacterial chromosomes and participates in nucleoid compaction and gene regulation. We report experiments using DNA stretching that study the dependence of DNA condensation by HU on force, salt and HU ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Incorporating nanosized silver into titanium for antimicrobial materials exploits the metastable miscibility gap between silver and titanium. Silver nanoparticles are synthesized via pulsed laser ablation in liquid. Silver addition refines the microstructure, increases hardness by 30%, and reduces Staphylococcus capitis microbial adhesion by 70%, with ...

The process of infection with bacteriophage phiX174, XXI. Replication and fate of the replicative form [PDF]
, 1968 Previous publications have described the formation of a double-stranded DNA intermediate(1) (replicative form, RF) during the replication of bacteriophage phiX174, the semiconservative replication at a bacterial "site"(2) of that RF containing the ...

Bioorthogonal Engineering of Cellular Microenvironments Using Isonitrile Ligations
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Highly selective chemistries are required for fabrication and post‐cross–linking modification of cell‐encapsulating hydrogels used in tissue engineering applications. Isonitrile ligation reactions represent a promising class of bioorthogonal chemistries for engineering hydrogel‐based cellular microenvironments. Isonitrile‐based hydrogels are stable and

Indirect DNA extraction method suitable for acidic soil with high clay content
MethodsX, 2018 DNA extraction is an essential procedure when investigating microbial communities in environmental samples by sequencing technologies. High clay soils can be problematic as DNA adsorbs to the clay particles and can thereby be preserved from lysed, non ...

Biofilm Control by Active Topography with Mucin Coating
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study reports a new antifouling strategy based on a bioinspired design. Mucin coating enhances biofilm control by active topography with beating micron‐sized pillars. Besides the mechanical force of beating pillars, the antibiofilm activities also involve biological factors since mucin coating inhibits swarming motility and c‐di‐GMP synthesis in ...
