Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: SANS study of solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the solution aggregation of collagen based polypeptides and their interactions with model surfactants.... -
Neutron Reflectivity Study on Multi-domain DNA Molecular Motors
DNA is a versatile building material for nanotechnology. We have recently studied a surface-tethered single-domain DNA motor by neutron reflection (IR) for the first time. We... -
Defects in the Core Oligosaccharide in Gram Negative Bacterial Outer Membrane...
The outer membrane of Gram negative bacterial is an effective barrier for many harmful agents. We have been developing and testing advanced models of the Gram negative bacterial... -
Structure and activity of Membrane Proteins immobilised to solid supports.
Membrane Proteins (MPs) consist of about 1/3 of the proteome but the structural information available is very limited compared to that for soluble proteins. Despite this at... -
Chloride Intracellular Channel insertion into Tethered Bilayer Membranes
Part One of the proposal is concerned with the fundamental structure of the TBM and aims to determine: (i) the impact of spacer molecule length on the dimensions of the bilayer...
