Off-shell self-energy effects and the dynamic structure factor of an electron liquid

Journal Article Ng, T K ; Dabrowski, B - Phys. Rev. B: Condens. Matter; (United States)

A low-order calculation of the off-shell self-energy of an electron is performed and its effects are calculated both on the dynamic structure factor of an electron liquid and the quasiparticle properties.

Structure of a novel antibacterial toxin that exploits elongation factor Tu to cleave specific transfer RNAs

Journal Article Michalska, Karolina ; Gucinski, Grant C. ; Garza-Sanchez, Fernando ; ... - Nucleic Acids Research

Contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) is a mechanism of inter-cellular competition in which Gram-negative bacteria exchange polymorphic toxins using type V secretion systems. Here, we present structures of the CDI toxin from Escherichia coli NC101 in ternary complex with its cognate immunity protein and elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu). The toxin binds exclusively to domain 2 of EF-Tu, partially overlapping the site that interacts with the 3'-end of aminoacyl-tRNA (aa-tRNA). The toxin exerts a unique ribonuclease activity that cleaves the single-stranded 3'-end from tRNAs that contain guanine discriminator nucleotides. EF-Tu is required to support this tRNase activity in vitro, suggesting the toxinmore »« less

Thermostability and decomposition of the (Bi,Pb) sub 2 Sr sub 2 Ca sub 2 Cu sub 3 O sub 10 phase in silver-clad tapes

Journal Article Luo, J S ; Merchant, N ; Maroni, V A ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics; (United States)

The stability of the Bi{sub 2{minus}{ital x}}Pb{sub {ital x}}Sr{sub 2}Ca{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 10} (Pb-2223) phase contained in silver-sheathed oxide-powder-in-tube specimens has been investigated by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive x-ray analysis. Silver tubes loaded with Pb-2223 precursor powders were processed into tapes using established metallurgical techniques. The tapes were heat-treated in a specially designed equilibration apparatus at selected temperatures (800--845 {degree}C) for a range of times (10--5500 min) and quenched in liquid gallium held at {similar to}40 {degree}C. The results showed that the Pb-2223 phase is stable in a limited temperature interval between 810 and 830 {degree}Cmore »« less

Alteration of nucleoside diphosphate binding specificity of E. coli elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) by single amino acid substitution at position 138

Conference Hwang, Y ; Miller, D L - Fed. Proc., Fed. Am. Soc. Exp. Biol.; (United States)

A single amino acid substitution (Asp ..-->.. Asn) at position 138 of E. coli EF-Tu was induced in the tufA gene by an M13 phage oligonucleotide site-directed mutagenesis protocol. The mutated tufA gene was then subcloned in a plasmid vector and expressed in maxicells. The properties of (/sup 35/S)methionine labelled mutant and wild type EF-Tu's were compared by in vitro assays. Mutant and wild-type EF-Tu's bound EF-Ts with approximately equal affinities. The 138-Asn mutation greatly reduced the protein's affinity for GDP; however, this mutation dramatically increased the proteins affinity for XDP. The mutant protein forms a stable complex with phe-tRNAmore »« less
