Background The activities of mitochondrial complex III (ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase, EC 1.10.2.2) and complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase EC 1.9.3.1) are reduced by 30-70% in Huntington's disease and Alzheimer's disease, respectively, and are ...

Mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) dysfunction due to mutations in the nuclear or mitochondrial genome is a common cause of metabolic disease in humans and displays striking tissue specificity depending on the affected gene.

Biological free energy transduction is an Achilles heel of mean-field transport theory [PDF]
Studies of nanoscale biological transport often use a mean-field approximation that is exact only when the system is at equilibrium and there are no interactions between particles on different sites in the network. We explore the limitations of this approximation to describe many-particle transport in the context of enzyme function and biological ...

Creep Characterization of Inconel 718 Lattice Metamaterials Manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion
Herein, the creep characteristics of additively manufactured Inconel 718 metamaterials are investigated. The creep behavior of metamaterials and the effects of microstructural defects are assessed, and the microstructure defects are accurately captured using Kachanov's creep damage model.

Structural studies of T4S systems by electron microscopy
Type IV secretion (T4S) systems are large dynamic nanomachines that transport DNA and/or proteins through the membranes of bacteria. Analysis of T4S system architecture is an extremely challenging task taking into account their multi protein organisation

Driving current through single organic molecules [PDF]
We investigate electronic transport through two types of conjugated molecules. Mechanically controlled break-junctions are used to couple thiol endgroups of single molecules to two gold electrodes. Current-voltage characteristics (IVs) of the metal-molecule-metal system are observed.

Advances in multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) and digital image analysis has enabled simultaneous assessment of protein defects in electron transport chain components. However, current manual methodology is time consuming and labour intensive. Therefore,

Charge transport modulation by a redox supramolecular spin-filtering chiral crystal [PDF]
The chirality induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is a fascinating phenomena correlating molecular structure with electron spin-polarisation in excited state measurements. Experimental procedures to quantify the spin-filtering magnitude relies generally on averaging data sets, especially those from magnetic field dependent conductive-AFM.

Current facilitation by plasmon resonances between parallel wires of finite length [PDF]
The current voltage (IV) characteristics for perpendicular transport through two sequentially coupled wires of finite length is calculated analytically. The transport within a Coulomb blockade step is assisted by plasmon resonances that appear as steps in the IV characteristics with positions and heights depending on inter- and intrawire interactions ...
