Flavodoxins (Flds) are small, bacterial proteins that transfer electrons to various redox enzymes. Flavodoxins are reduced by ferredoxin/flavodoxin NADP+ oxidoreductases (FNRs), but little is known of the FNR-Fld interaction. ...

Nitric oxide (NO) produced by mammalian nitric oxide synthases (mNOSs) is an important mediator in a variety of physiological functions. Crystal structures of mNOSs have shown strong conservation of the active‐site residue ...

Chorismate mutase is a well‐known model enzyme, catalyzing the Claisen rearrangement of chorismate to prephenate. Recent high‐resolution crystal structures along the reaction coordinate of this enzyme enabled computational ...

The authors examined the seasonal and year‐to‐year variations of mercury (Hg) concentrations in populations of perch (Perca fluviatilis) from 2 boreal freshwater lakes in southeast Norway. Fish Hg concentrations were ...

Despite an increasing focus on low level methods for determination of mercury species in water over the last decades, few studies have paid attention to direct effects of different sample preparation methods (i.e. preservation ...

We herein report inter-diffusion across the interface between p-type Ni0.98Li0.02O and n-type Zn0.98Al0.02O for various applications including p-n-heterojunction diodes and oxide thermoelectrics. Diffusion couples were ...

The biogeochemical cycling of mercury (Hg) in the marine environment is an issue of global concern, as consumption of marine fish is a major route of human exposure to the toxic specie methylmercury (MeHg). The most widely ...
