LHC_Ⅱ complex, which consists of only one subunit (27 kD), was isolated and purified. 2_D crystallization was performed by batch method. The crystal is 0.7 μm×1.0 μm, and diffracts to 30 ?. The projection map of the negatively stained two_dimensional crystal of LHC_Ⅱ complex shows that the crystal has p3 symmetry, lattice constant 15.4 nm×15.4 nm, which is different from the LHC_Ⅱ of spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) and pea (Pisum satium L.). A continuous tomographic tilt series, containing 12 projections from the two_dimensional crystal was subjected to 3_D reconstruction. The 3_D model represents that LHC_Ⅱ complex consists of 6 monomers. These trimer and dimer interactions build up the six member ring.展开更多

We investigated the expression patterns of seven Venerupis philippinarum GSTs （VpGSTs） and four Mytilus galloprovincialis GSTs （MgGSTs） following exposure to BDE-47. Differential expressions of the seven VpGSTs and four MgGSTs transcripts were observed, with differences between the hepatopancreas and gills. Among these GSTs, the sigma classes （VpGSTS1, VpGSTS2, VpGSTS3, MgGST1, and MgGST3） were highly expressed in response to BDE-47 exposure, demonstrating their potential as molecular biomarkers for environmental biomonitoring studies. We obtained the three-dimensional crystal structures of VpGSTs and MgGSTs by homologous modeling. A model to elucidate the binding interactions between the ligands and receptors was defined by molecular docking, Hydrophobic and n were the most often observed interactions between BDE-47 and the GSTs.展开更多

All of the title compounds have similar three-dimensional crystal structures, which are composed of isolated B5 O10 groups and LaO6 or BiO6 octahedra, and K^+, Ca^2+, and Ba^2+ cations fill into the cavities to keep charge balance. Based on our research, in the system of K7 MIIRE2 B15O30(MII= Ca, Sr,Ba, Zn, Cd, Pb, K/RE0.5;RE = Sc, Y, La, Gd, Lu, Bi),K7BaBi2B15O30 is unique and crystallizes in a different space group, which enriches the structural chemistry of borate.Detailed structural analyses indicate that the structural variation is due to the difference in size and coordination number of the alkaline-earth metal cations. Besides, UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy analysis and the second-harmonic generation(SHG) measurement on the powder samples show that K7CaBi2B15O30 exhibits a UV cutoff edge(about 282 nm) and a moderate SHG response(about 0.6 × KDP). In addition,thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy were also presented. To better understand the structure-property relationships of the title compounds, the first-principles calculations have been performed.展开更多
