    Description: Many organisms construct structural ceramic (biomineral) composites from seemingly mundane materials; cell-mediated processes control both the nucleation and growth of mineral and the development of composite microarchitecture. Living systems fabricate biocomposites by: (i) confining biomineralization within specific subunit compartments; (ii) producing a specific mineral with defined crystal size and orientation; and (iii) packaging many incremental units together in a moving front process to form fully densified, macroscopic structures. By adapting biological principles, materials scientists are attempting to produce novel materials. To date, neither the elegance of the biomineral assembly mechanisms nor the intricate composite microarchitectures have been duplicated by nonbiological processing. However, substantial progress has been made in the understanding of how biomineralization occurs, and the first steps are now being taken to exploit the basic principles involved.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Heuer, A H -- Fink, D J -- Laraia, V J -- Arias, J L -- Calvert, P D -- Kendall, K -- Messing, G L -- Blackwell, J -- Rieke, P C -- Thompson, D H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Feb 28;255(5048):1098-105.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH 44106.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1546311" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Heterotrimeric guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP)-binding proteins (G proteins) are deactivated by hydrolysis of the GTP that they bind when activated by transmembrane receptors. Transducin, the G protein that relays visual excitation from rhodopsin to the cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate phosphodiesterase (PDE) in retinal photoreceptors, must be deactivated for the light response to recover. A point mutation in the gamma subunit of PDE impaired transducin-PDE interactions and slowed the recovery rate of the flash response in transgenic mouse rods. These results indicate that the normal deactivation of transducin in vivo requires the G protein to interact with its target enzyme.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tsang, S H -- Burns, M E -- Calvert, P D -- Gouras, P -- Baylor, D A -- Goff, S P -- Arshavsky, V Y -- EY05750/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- EY10336/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- T32 EY07105/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Oct 2;282(5386):117-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Edward S.

    Notes: [Auszug] Retinal rods signal the activation of a single receptor molecule by a photon. To ensure efficient photon capture, rods maintain about 109 copies of rhodopsin densely packed into membranous disks. But a high packing density of rhodopsin may impede other steps in phototransduction ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN 1971 de Gennes predicted that the diffusion coefficient of a polymer chain in a gel would be proportional to the inverse square of the molecular weight (M) and with some reservations extended this prediction to self diffusion of molten polymers (J. Chem. Phys. 55, 572; 1972). At the time the ...

    Notes: Abstract An alkoxytitanium carboxylate of a branched carboxylic acid was synthesized and its effectiveness as a dispersant for oxide powders determined. The amount of titanate required to produce stable dispersions & nonaqueous media corresponded to monomolecular layer coverage of the oxide particles by the titanate. Low-molecular-weight organotitanate dispersants should prove useful as substitutes for fish oil or polymers in ceramics processing.
