QUANTUM CALCULATIONS ON THE COLLISIONS OF NON-LINEAR TRIATOMIC-MOLECULES WITH ATOMS - VIBRATIONAL-EXCITATION IN HE+SO2(V1V2V3) by Clary, D

“…The combined vibrational close-coupling, rotational infinite-order sudden quantum technique is extended to the calculation of vibrational excitation cross sections for the three-dimensional collisions of atoms with nonlinear triatomic molecules. The method has been incorporated into a general computer program which should be applicable to many atom-nonlinear triatomic systems having realistic potential energy surfaces. …”

Expression of a single-chain HLA class I molecule in a human cell line: presentation of exogenous peptide and processed antigen to cytotoxic T lymphocytes. by Toshitani, K, Braud, V, Browning, M, Murray, N, Mcmichael, A, Bodmer, W

Investigations on small molecule inhibitors targeting the histone H3K4 tri-methyllysine binding PHD-finger of JmjC histone demethylases by Bhushan, B, Erdmann, A, Zhang, Y, Belle, R, Johannson, C, Oppermann, U, Hopkinson, R, Schofield, C, Kawamura, A

Rosetting of activated human T lymphocytes with autologous erythrocytes. Definition of the receptor and ligand molecules as CD2 and lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3 (LFA-3). by Plunkett, M, Sanders, M, Selvaraj, P, Dustin, M, Springer, T

“…Pretreatment of T lymphocytes with CD2 mAb or of E with LFA-3 mAb inhibits rosetting. Purified CD2 molecules bind to human E and inhibit rosetting. 125I-CD2 binding to E is inhibited by LFA-3 mAb; reciprocally, binding of LFA-3 mAb to human E is inhibited by pretreatment with purified CD2. …”

Generator-collector experiments at a single electrode: exploring the general applicability of this approach by comparing the performance of surface immobilized versus solution phase sensing molecules. by Henstridge, M, Wildgoose, G, Compton, R

How many molecules are required to obtain a steady faradaic current from mediated electron transfer at a single nanoparticle on a supporting surface? by Kätelhön, E, Krause, K, Wolfrum, B, Compton, R

Structural studies of peptide binding to chicken class I MHC molecules, the CD6-CD166 interaction and enzymes involved in bacterial sulfur metabolism by Chappell, P

“…This process depends on a complex set of finely tuned interactions, not only between the T cell receptor (TCR) and peptide-MHC complexes, but also between numerous accessory molecules. Chapter 2 of this thesis examines CD6, a transmembrane glycoprotein predominantly found on the surface of T cells, and its interaction with CD166, another transmembrane glycoprotein found on the surface of antigen presenting cells (APCs), amongst others. …”

Multifrequency millimeter wave study of excited energy states in the high-spin molecule Cr-10(OMe)(20)(O2CCMe3)(10) by Sharmin, S, Ardavan, A, Blundell, S, Rival, O, Goy, P, McInnes, E, Low, D

“…We report multifrequency high-field millimeter-wave magneto-optical measurements on the high-spin molecule, Cr10 (OMe) 20 (O2 CCMe3) 10. We find that at temperatures above 15 K and at magnetic fields above 6 T, the simple ESR spectrum expected for a single molecule magnet is markedly altered. …”

Saposins modulate human invariant Natural Killer T cells self-reactivity and facilitate lipid exchange with CD1d molecules during antigen presentation. by Salio, M, Ghadbane, H, Dushek, O, Shepherd, D, Cypen, J, Gileadi, U, Aichinger, M, Napolitani, G, Qi, X, Van Der Merwe, P, Wojno, J, Veerapen, N, Cox, L, Besra, G, Yuan, W, Cresswell, P, Cerundolo, V

“…Lipid transfer proteins, such as molecules of the saposin family, facilitate extraction of lipids from biological membranes for their loading onto CD1d molecules. …”

Comparison of T3-associated 49- and 43-kilodalton cell surface molecules on individual human T-cell clones: evidence for peptide variability in T-cell receptor structures. by Reinherz, E, Meuer, S, Fitzgerald, K, Hussey, R, Hodgdon, J, Acuto, O, Schlossman, S

“…Similar T3-associated 49/43-kDa molecules were detected on eight additional clones, although these did not express the determinant defined by anti-Ti1A or anti-Ti1B. …”

2-(1,3-Diphenylpropen-1,3-diolato)-1,3,2-(5-formylbenzo)dioxaborol: A `whole-molecule disorder' crystal structure by Ng, S.W.

“…The boron atom in C(22)E(15)BO(5) is O,O'-chelated by the anions in a tetrahedral geometry, with the planar five- and six-membered chelate rings being orthogonal to each other. The molecule lies on a two-fold rotation axis. The molecule is disordered with respect to another molecule in a 93:7 ratio; the treatment of the `whole-molecule disorder' by employing a large number of restraints is described. …”
