Hsp70 chaperone Proteins and their Interactions with Various Drugs as Studied by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.
(2011)
Chaperone proteins and their cochaperones are perhaps one of the most intriguing systems for investigation. Ubiquitous in nature, they can be found in every organism and that perhaps is the reason that their sequence shows ...
Solid State NMR Investigations of Lipid Bilayers and Biomembrane Binding Molecules: Dendrimers and Amylin.
(2010)
The goal of this project was to investigate the interaction between lipid binding molecules, such as peptides and drug compounds, with biological lipid bilayers. The results demonstrate that human amylin, a peptide hormone ...
Quantum Optical Applications in Spectroscopy: Investigations of Entangled Two-Photon Absorption and Entangled Two-Photon Excited Fluorescence in Organic Dendritic Systems.
(2010)
Entangled states of light have been utilized successfully in a wide variety of experiments and applications. This dissertation will discuss the application of entangled states of light toward spectroscopy wherein entangled ...
Sum Frequency Generation Vibrational Spectroscopy Investigation of Buried Polymer and Organic Interfaces.
(2009)
It is difficult to elucidate buried interfaces because of the lack of appropriate analytical techniques. In this thesis, it was shown that sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy (SFG) can be used to probe ...
