Interaction of functional nanoparticles with cells and model biomembranes has been widely studied to evaluate the effectiveness of the particles as potential drug delivery vehicles and bioimaging labels as well as in understanding nanoparticle cytotoxicity effects. Charged nanoparticles, in particular, with tunable surface charge have been found to be effective in targeting cellular membranes as well as the subcellular matrix. However, a microscopic understanding of the underlying physical principles that govern nanoparticle binding, uptake, or diffusion on cells is lacking. Here, we report the first experimental studies of nanoparticle diffusion on model biomembranes and correlate this to the existence of nanoscale dynamics and structural heterogeneities using super-resolution stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy. Using confocal and STED microscopy coupled with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), we provide novel insight on why these nanoparticles show enhanced binding on two-componen...

We recently generalized the formerly alignment-dependent multivariate image analysis applied to quantitative structure–activity relationships (MIA-QSAR) method through the application of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), allowing for its application to noncongruent and structurally dive ... more
Proteomic Analysis of the Downstream Signaling Network of PARP1
Poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) is a protein posttranslational modification (PTM) that is critically involved in many biological processes that are linked to cell stress responses. It is catalyzed by a class of enzymes known as poly-ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs). In particular, PARP1 is ... more
Oxygen Activation and Energy Conservation by Cytochrome c Oxidase
This review focuses on the type A cytochrome c oxidases (CcO), which are found in all mitochondria and also in several aerobic bacteria. CcO catalyzes the respiratory reduction of dioxygen (O2) to water by an intriguing mechanism, the details of which are fairly well understood today as a r ... more
Rohm and Haas Powder Coatings is delighted to announce that its Reading, Pennsylvania, facility is the first site in the world to receive the RCMS® Site Certification awarded by the American Chemical Council (ACC). When Raj Gupta, Chairman and CEO of Rohm and Haas Company, became Chairman ... more
