Computational Approaches for Understanding and Redesigning Enzyme Catalysis by Karvelis, Elijah

“…In this thesis, I address these shortcomings by developing and demonstrating computational strategies comprised of techniques spanning statistical mechanics, machine learning, and protein design, and I apply them to the enzyme ketol-acid reductoisomerase (KARI), whose economic viability for the production of isobutanol would be strengthened by enhancing its activity on one of its two native substrates: 2-acetolactate (ACL). …”

Investigating the inner controls on explosive eruptions using textural analyses and petrology by Bernard, Olivier

“…Recently, it has been shown that most volcanoes around the globe and particularly in a subduction-setting, are able to produce both effusive and violently explosive eruptions with sometimes rapid transitions between eruption styles in the span of a few hours to minutes. However, predicting how a volcano will erupt proves challenging. …”

Induction of z-conformation in ribosomal RNA by Z-DNA binding domain Zα of the human double-stranded RNA deaminase I (ADAR1) by Zhao, Jing

“…In order to provide theoretical foundations for the analysis of NMR spectral responses of ZαADAR1 to ribosomes we attempted to extend the conventional NMR relaxation theory to include a semi solid-state treatment of nuclear spin dynamics in large complexes. The main challenge to the classical NMR theory arises when one of the binding partners is so large that in the chemical shift time scale of solution NMR (milliseconds) it can be considered as practically static or solid-state-like. …”
