Characterization of membrane protein function by solid-state NMR spectroscopy [PDF]
Membrane proteins are an important class of biological molecules whose association with lipid bilayers and intrinsic molecular mobility can complicate their structural study by high-resolution methods.

Relevance of Host Cell Surface Glycan Structure for Cell Specificity of Influenza A Viruses
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) initiate infection via binding of the viral hemagglutinin (HA) to sialylated glycans on host cells. HA’s receptor specificity towards individual glycans is well studied and clearly critical for virus infection, but the ...

Topography and mechanical properties of single molecules of type I collagen using atomic force microscopy [PDF]
Although the mechanical behavior of tendon and bone has been studied for decades, there is still relatively little understanding of the molecular basis for their specific properties.

Scaling in force spectroscopy of macromolecules
We use molecular dynamics to determine the force needed to rupture a chain molecule being stretched at constant loading rate and temperature. When all energy bonds of the molecule are identical, we find that the force F depends on the pulling rate r and temperature T according to F approximately const- T(1/3)|ln (r/T)|(1/3).

OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF CdS–Ag2S QUANTUM DOT SYSTEM
The paper presents the results of a study of systems with quantum dots of two types: CdS and Ag2S, which have different types of crystal lattices. CdS quantum dots were synthesized in the gelatin matrix by means of the sol-gel method.

Measuring cell adhesion forces with the atomic force microscope at the molecular level [PDF]
In the past 25 years many techniques have been developed to characterize cell adhesion and to quantify adhesion forces. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to measure forces in the pico-newton range, an experimental technique known as force ...

Noncontact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM) is being increasingly used to measure the interaction force between an atomically sharp probe tip and surfaces of interest, as a function of the three spatial dimensions, with picometer and piconewton accuracy.

Automated Dielectrophoretic Tweezers-Based Force Spectroscopy System in a Microfluidic Device
We reported an automated dielectrophoretic (DEP) tweezers-based force spectroscopy system to examine intermolecular weak binding interactions, which consists of three components: (1) interdigitated electrodes and micro-sized polystyrene particles used as
