FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Influence of anchoring in AFLC cells: Electro optical scanning [PDF]
, 2006 Antiferroelectric liquid crystals have gained a lot of interest in the last few years. In the case of ferroelectric liquid crystals, it is generally assumed that in a confined geometry the surface only has a minimal influence on the bulk when the ...

Hydrodynamics of polar liquid crystals
, 2006 Starting from a microscopic definition of an alignment vector proportional to the polarization, we discuss the hydrodynamics of polar liquid crystals with local $C_{\infty v}$-symmetry.

Fluctuating Interfaces in Liquid Crystals [PDF]
, 2007 We review and compare recent work on the properties of fluctuating interfaces between nematic and isotropic liquid-crystalline phases. Molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for systems of ellipsoids and hard rods with ...

Nanomaterials in Liquid Crystals as Ion-Generating and Ion-Capturing Objects
Crystals, 2018 The majority of tunable liquid crystal devices are driven by electric fields. The performance of such devices can be altered by the presence of small amounts of ions in liquid crystals.

ON LIQUID CRYSTALS AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPERSIONS
Annals of the Academy of Romanian Scientists Series on Physics and Chemistry, 2022 This short review paper presents some important aspects ofliquid crystal and liquid crystal composites. Preparation methods ofpolymer dispersed liquid crystalfdms (PDLC), the obtained structure and their main application as light valve are shown. In the last decade, the field has experienced a sharp revitalization, due to nanodoping, which results in ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Modeling Smectic Layers in Confined Geometries: Order Parameter and Defects
, 2014 We identify problems with the standard complex order parameter formalism for smectic-A (SmA) liquid crystals, and discuss possible alternative descriptions of smectic order.
