Substitution of the conserved Histidine 448 present in one of the three consensus elements characterizing the guanosine nucleotide binding domain (IF2 G2) of Escherichia coli translation initiation factor IF2 resulted in impaired ribosome-dependent G...
The effect of the gaseous atmosphere in the growth of gallium arsenide (GaAs) films was studied. The films have been grown by close-spaced vapor transport (CSVT) technique in a home-made hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) reactor using mo...
The conserved Histidine 301 in switch II of Geobacillus stearothermophilus IF2 G2 domain was substituted with Ser, Gln, Arg, Leu and Tyr to generate mutants displaying different phenotypes. Overexpression of IF2H301S, IF2H301L and IF2H301Y in cells e...
Porous Si-SiO2 UV microcavities are used to modulate a broad responsivity photodetector (GVGR-T10GD) with a detection range from 300 to 510 nm. The UV microcavity filters modified the responsivity at short wavelengths, while in the visible range the...
