Anchor density

In this work, we propose fullerene molecule C20 as an anchor to fabricate a robust aromatic molecular junction. The electron transport properties of this fullerene terminated aromatic molecular device at zero bias and finite bias voltage are investigated by using non-equilibrium Green's function combined with density functional theory.

The CO2 electrochemical reduction to CO on dual precious metal atoms M2 (M2 = Pt2, Pd2, and Pt1Pd1) decorated graphene (M2/G) is investigated by using density functional theory with van der Waals corrections. The electronic structure analyses show that the dual precious metal atoms anchored graphene are able to activate CO2 thanks to the charge transfer from metal atoms to the antibonding π* orbital of CO2.

The optimal anchor density in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) surgery to achieve good curve correction remains unclear. The purpose of the study is to analyze the correlations between three-dimensional curve correction and anchor density in the pedicle screw-based posterior fusion of AIS.

In addition to the major carbohydrate moieties of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor, we report that Plasmodiumfalciparummerozoite surface protein1 (MSP-1) bearsO-GlcNAc modifications predominantly in b-ano-meric configuration, in both the C- andN-terminal portions of the protein. Subcellular fractionation of parasitized erythrocytes in the late trophozoite/schizont stage reveals that GPI-anchored C-terminal fragments of MSP-1 are recovered in Triton X-100 resistant, low-density membrane fractions....

It is now generally accepted that factor XII (FXII) binds to cellular surfaces in the vascular system. One of the suggested receptors of this binding is the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored urokinase-like plasminogen activator (u-PAR) harbored in caveolae/lipid rafts. However, binding of FXII to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) has never been shown to be localized to these specialized mem-brane structures. Using microscopical techniques, we here report that FXII binds to specific patches of the HUVEC plasma membrane with a high density of caveolae....
