Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Proton structure from deep inelastic and diffractive scattering [PDF]

, 1996
We investigate various aspects of the proton structure in this thesis. The first addresses the distribution of the proton spin among its constituents, quarks and gluons.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Patient-specific stopping power calibration for proton therapy planning based on single-detector proton radiography. [PDF]

, 2015
A simple robust optimizer has been developed that can produce patient-specific calibration curves to convert x-ray computed tomography (CT) numbers to relative stopping powers (HU-RSPs) for proton therapy treatment planning.

Proton-Conductive Cerium-Based MetalOrganic Frameworks

, 2021
In this study, proton-conducting behaviors of a cerium-based metal–organic framework (MOF), Ce-MOF-808, its zirconium-based isostructural MOF, and bimetallic MOFs with various Zr-to-Ce ratios are investigated.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Long-term survival after definitive proton beam therapy for oligorecurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Radical esophagectomy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has improved survival, but the rate of recurrence is high. Patients of recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after failure of chemotherapy have a poor prognosis.
