Hierarchical Self-Assembly Route to Polyplex-in-Hydrophobic-Core Micelles for Gene Delivery
Hierarchical block copolymer self-assembly is used to produce “polyplex-in-hydrophobic-core” (PIHC) micelles for gene delivery. The unique PIHC micelle structure provides nuclease protection and controlled release by embedding nucleic acids in the ...

Multiple determinants direct the orientation of signal-anchor proteins : the topogenic role of the hydrophobic signal domain [PDF]
The orientation of signal-anchor proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane is largely determined by the charged residues flanking the apolar, membrane-spanning domain and is influenced by the folding properties of the NH2-terminal sequence. However,

Estimation of wettability of topical fluoride gel on anterior and posterior teeth: An in vitro study
The surface area determination has a vital role in measuring the properties of liquid and solid substances. Fluoride is a potent remineralizing agent of the teeth. The surface area is measured using a goniometer. The main aim of this study is to estimate

Hydrophobic interaction chromatography [PDF]
Most proteins and large polypeptides have hydrophobic regions at their surface. These hydrophobic ‘patches’ are due to the presence of the side chains of hydrophobic or non-polar amino acids such as phenylalanine, tryptophan, alanine and methionine ...

AbstractA widespread practice is to use free energies of transfer between organic solvents and water (ΔGtransfer°) to define hydrophobicity scales for the amino acid side chains. A comparison of four ΔGtransfer° scales reveals that the values for hydrogen‐bonding side chains are highly dependent on the non‐aqueous environment.

Different assembly of type IV collagen on hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrata alters endothelial cells interaction [PDF]
Considering the structural role of type IV collagen (Col IV) in the assembly of the basement membrane (BM) and the perspective of mimicking its organization for vascular tissue engineering purposes, we studied the adsorption pattern of this protein on ...
