Amorphous Character

In an attempt to identify polysaccharide components in thin sections of D. maydis, procedures were employed such that a PAS localization could be carried out. Three different fixatives were evaluated ie. glutaraldehyde, formaldehyde and paraformaldehyde. These were used in conjunction with periodic acid (PA), thiosemicarbazide(TSC), and osmium tetroxide(Os) to localize polysaccharides in V. maydis using a pre-embedded reaction procedure. Polysaccharide localization is based on the oxidation of vic-glycol groups by PA, and the binding of TSC as a selective reaction center for the formation of osmium black. The reaction product is sufficiently electron opaque, insoluble in lipids, not altered when tissue is embedded, and has a fine amorphous character.

The Asymmetry

We present a computational analysis of the asymmetry in reaction center models of photosystem I, photosystem II, and bacteria from <i>Synechococcus elongatus</i>, <i>Thermococcus vulcanus</i>, and <i>Rhodobacter sphaeroides</i>, respectively. The recently developed FDE-diab methodology [J. Chem. Phys., 148 (2018), 214104] allowed us to effectively avoid the spin-density overdelocalization error characteristic for standard Kohn–Sham Density Functional Theory and to reliably calculate spin-density distributions and electronic couplings for a number of molecular systems ranging from dimeric models in vacuum to large protein including up to about 2000 atoms. The calculated spin densities showed a good agreement with available experimental results and were used to validate reaction center models reported in the literature. We demonstrated that the applied theoretical approach is very sensitive to changes in molecular structures and relative orientation of molecules. This makes FDE-diab a valuable tool for electronic structure calculations of large photosynthetic models effectively complementing the existing experimental techniques.

PVDF sensor is a sensor that is often used to measure force, strain, vibration and heat. In this study, PVDF sensors with surface polarization are used to detect cutting forces on the machine. The PVDF sensor that has been polarized on the surface is placed in the chuck part of the engine. Measuring instrumen for testing and calibrating PVDF sensors is oscilloscope with increased loading and reduced axial and tangential directions. After the calibration process, the PVDF sensor was used to measure cutting force on drilling machine, and then the results were compared with the PCB piezotronics force sensor. The PVDF sensor output signal is measured and studied for its voltage using an oscilloscope, where the output signal is compared to the weight given to the PVDF sensor. From the results of these tests indicate that the maximum deviation in axial loading is 0.32V while the tangential loading is 0.31VKeywords.

The present paper studies the effect of the modification of heterocyclic base, sugar moiety and the presence of phosphate group on the nucleoside acceptors in the synthesis of dinucleoside phosphates from adenosine 2',3'-cyclic phosphate as donor, catalyzed by nonspecific acidic extracellular and intracellular ribonucleases from Penicillium claviforme. The enzyme binds specifically the acceptor molecule, preferring cytosine nucleosides. It requires the presence of the whole sugar moiety, an exact mutual orientation of the heterocyclic base and the reaction center (5'-hydroxy group), and a suitable conformation of the acceptor molecule. The enzyme-acceptor bond is homochiral and the presence of the N3-H group in the pyrimidine ring is important. The reaction between the donor and the acceptor is bimolecular and is competitively inhibited by some purine nucleosides.
