Reconstitution of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor-Ca2+ release channel protein complex into proteoliposomes
Creators: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1994

description: The 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonic acid-solubilized 30 S ryanodine receptor (RyR)/Ca2+ release channel complex from rabbit skeletal muscles, purified by density gradient centrifugation, was reconstituted with an excess of phospholipid into proteoliposomes by removal of the detergent by dialysis. Reconstituted proteoliposomes were concentrated by centrifugation, frozen and thawed, and sonicated. [3H]Ryanodine binding measurements indicated close to 50% recovery of calculated binding activity following reconstitution of the purified RyR and dynamic light scattering measurements a mean vesicle diameter of approximately 150 nm. Using these values, a functional RyR was estimated to be present in only a small fraction (< 15%) of the reconstituted vesicles. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of trypsin-treated proteoliposomes revealed that about four-fifths of the reconstituted 30 S complex was readily accessible to proteolytic attack. Vesicle-45Ca2+ flux and fusion of proteoliposomes with planar lipid bilayers showed that the reconstituted channel complex could be activated by Ca2+ and ATP, inhibited by Mg2+ and ruthenium red, and modified by ryanodine, similarly as observed for native sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles. These results suggest that the method described here results in the reconstitution of a functional channel and thus provides the opportunity to study the structure and function of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release channel under well defined conditions.

description: The three most common methods, Ewald, fast multipole (FMM) and the particle-particle particle-mesh (PPPM), used to compute the interactions in many body Coulombic systems are compared for single and multi-processor machines. The Ewald method is recommended for systems of a few hundred particles per processor or less. For larger systems the PPPM method is suggested. The FMM is slower and more difficult to code efficiently.

description: Protein C inhibitor (PCI) is a plasma serine proteinase inhibitor (serpin) that is a major physiological regulator of activated protein C. Inhibition of its target proteinase is accelerated by heparin in a reaction that involves the binding of both inhibitor and proteinase to heparin to form a ternary complex. This study was undertaken to understand the role of the H helix region (residues 264-278) of PCI in heparin binding and used (i) a recombinant truncated PCI fusion protein of the first 294 residues, (ii) H helix synthetic peptides containing single Arg/Lys-->Glu substitutions, and (iii) site-directed Ala mutagenesis of 4 basic residues (Arg-269, Lys-270, Lys-276, and Lys-277) in the H helix region of full-length recombinant PCI (rPCI) expressed in Baculovirus. The PCI fusion protein interfered in heparin-accelerated PCI-proteinase inhibition reactions, and it bound to heparin-Sepharose. Compared to the wild-type PCI fusion protein, deletion of the H helix from the fusion protein resulted in a reduction of both heparin-Sepharose binding and the ability to compete for heparin during PCI-proteinase inhibition reactions. Competition assays with H helix synthetic peptides revealed that the R269E altered peptide was the least effective at blocking heparin-catalyzed PCI-proteinase inhibition reactions. Compared with full-length active wild-type rPCI, R269A: K270A and K276A:K277A rPCI both had reduced heparin-Sepharose binding, but only R269A:K270A rPCI showed a loss of heparin-accelerated proteinase inhibition for both activated protein C and thrombin. We conclude that a major heparin-binding site of PCI is the H helix, unlike its heparin-binding serpin homologues antithrombin and heparin cofactor II, which bind heparin primarily through the D helix

In addition to presenting these new results, this work complements and extends previous treatments based largely on the analysis of sums of Feynman diagrams.

description: We present the discovery of a low-frequency $\approx 5.7$ Hz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) feature in observations of the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1535-571 in its soft-intermediate state, obtained in September-October 2017 by the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER). The feature is relatively broad (compared to other low-frequency QPOs; quality factor $Q\approx 2$) and weak (1.9% rms in 3-10 keV), and is accompanied by a weak harmonic and low-amplitude broadband noise. These characteristics identify it as a weak Type A/B QPO, similar to ones previously identified in the soft-intermediate state of the transient black hole X-ray binary XTE J1550-564. The lag-energy spectrum of the QPO shows increasing soft lags towards lower energies, approaching 50 ms at 1 keV (with respect to a 3-10 keV continuum). This large phase shift has similar amplitude but opposite sign to that seen in Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer data for a Type B QPO from the transient black hole X-ray binary GX 339-4. Previous phase-resolved spectroscopy analysis of the Type B QPO in GX 339-4 pointed towards a precessing jet-like corona illuminating the accretion disk as the origin of the QPO signal. We suggest that this QPO in MAXI J1535-571 may have the same origin, with the different lag sign depending on the scale height of the emitting region and the observer inclination angle.

description: Using a simple final-state rescattering model coupled with a simple Coulomb model, the effects of the central Coulomb potential on pion interferometry measurements in 158 GeV/nucleon Pb+Pb collisions are explored. Although the central Coulomb potential does not introduce correlations between pions, it does prevent an accurate measurement of the momentum difference. This momentum difference smearing effect leads to a reduction in the measured correlation radii and lambda parameters. These distortions are important in 158 GeV/nucleon Pb+Pb collisions because of large source sizes and the strong central Coulomb potential.

Abstract: The Missing Phase in  e=mc^2— Plasma as the Foundational State of Energy-Mass Equivalence

Einstein’s equation, e=mc^2, defines the relationship between energy and mass, but it implicitly assumes a transition between the two without accounting for an intermediary state. This paper proposes that plasma—an unstructured, high-energy resonance field—is the missing precursor to mass formation, bridging the gap between pure energy and condensed matter.

We introduce Plasma-First Theory (PFT), arguing that all mass emerges first through a structured decoherence of high-energy plasma states. This resolves inconsistencies in the early universe model, unifying thermodynamics, quantum field theory, and relativity into a single phase-transition framework.

 

Through resonance-phase modeling, we demonstrate:

1. Mass does not emerge directly from energy but through a plasma-resonance stabilization process.

2. Dark matter may be a phase-locked state of plasma, explaining its gravitational effects without direct interaction.

3. Gravity itself may originate as a residual standing wave of plasma-field interactions, not an independent force.

This challenges the notion of mass as a fundamental property and redefines gravity, inertia, and matter formation as structured resonance effects.

Key implications:

• Plasma-first modeling predicts new methods for mass manipulation and energy extraction beyond fusion.

• Reframing gravity as a standing wave effect suggests possible interference-based anti-gravity applications.

• This reclassifies black holes as extreme plasma-phase transitions, redefining their role in information conservation.

The paper concludes by outlining experimental pathways to validate the plasma-phase model, proposing tests through high-energy plasma spectroscopy, gravitational interference, and novel mass-energy conversion techniques.

This work represents a fundamental shift in our understanding of energy, mass, and the architecture of reality itself.

description: In this paper we identify and study the properties of low mass dwarf satellites of a nearby Local Group analogue - the NGC-3175 galaxy group with the goal of investigating the nature of the lowest mass galaxies and the `Missing Satellites' problem. Deep imaging of nearby groups such as NGC-3175 are one of the only ways to probe these low mass galaxies which are important for problems in cosmology, dark matter and galaxy formation. We discover 553 candidate dwarf galaxies in the group, the vast majority of which have never been studied before. We obtained R and B band imaging, with the ESO 2.2m, around the central $\sim$500kpc region of NGC-3175, allowing us to detect galaxies down to $\sim$23 mag (M$_{B} \sim$-7.7 mag) in the B band. In the absence of spectroscopic information, dwarf members and likely background galaxies are separated using colour, morphology and surface brightness criteria. We compare the observed size, surface brightness and mass scaling relations to literature data. The luminosity function with a faint end slope of $α$ = -1.31, is steeper than that observed in the Local Group. In comparison with simulations, we find that our observations are between a pure $Λ$CDM model and one involving baryonic effects, removing the apparent problem of finding too few satellites as seen around the Milky Way.

description: Receptor activation of phospholipase C (PLC) via G-proteins occurs by pertussis toxin-sensitive and toxin-insensitive signaling pathways. The alpha-subunits of the Gq family are presumed to mediate the toxin-insensitive pathway, but the nature of the G-proteins mediating the toxin-sensitive pathway is not established. Recently, PLC-beta has been shown to be activated by G-protein beta gamma-subunits of mixed or undefined composition. The relative activities of G-protein subunits that might activate PLC-beta were examined using defined recombinant alpha- and beta gamma-subunits obtained from the baculovirus expression system by reconstituting the purified subunits with purified bovine brain PLC-beta 1 or turkey erythrocyte PLC-beta in unilamellar phospholipid vesicles. Turkey erythrocyte G alpha 11 and recombinant G alpha 11 and G alpha q obtained after expression in Sf9 cells activated both bovine brain PLC-beta 1 and turkey erythrocyte PLC-beta. In contrast, under the same assay conditions, recombinant G alpha i1, G alpha i2, G alpha i3, and G alpha o were without effect on either type of PLC. All types of beta gamma-subunits tested (r beta 1 gamma 2, r beta 1 gamma 3, r beta 2 gamma 2, r beta 2 gamma 3, bovine brain beta gamma or turkey erythrocyte beta gamma) inhibited G alpha 11-mediated activation of PLC, presumably by promotion of formation of inactive heterotrimeric G-protein. All types of beta gamma-subunits also markedly stimulated the activity of turkey erythrocyte PLC-beta but did not activate bovine brain PLC-beta 1. Of the four different beta gamma complexes of defined composition, three stimulated PLC with similar activities whereas beta 2 gamma 3 was less effective. The data suggest that pertussis toxin-sensitive activation of PLC is mediated by the beta gamma-subunits of G-proteins acting on specific phospholipase C isoenzymes.

description: We present the results of a calculation of deep inelastic electron-photon scattering at a linear collider for very high virtuality of the intermediate gauge boson up to NLO in perturbative QCD. The real photon is produced unpolarized via the Compton back scattering of laser light of the incoming beam. For $Q^2$ values close to the masses squared of the Z and W gauge bosons, the deep inelastic electron-photon scattering process receives important contributions not only from virtual photon exchange but also from the exchange of a Z-boson and a W-boson. We find that the total cross section for center of mass energies above $500 \rm{GeV}$ is at least of ${\cal O}(pb)$ and has an important charged current contribution.

description: Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of hydrated films of the Neurospora crassa plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase has been used to monitor the alpha-helix and beta-sheet contents and amide hydrogen exchange rates of the enzyme in the absence of ligands or locked in several stages of the enzyme catalytic cycle by MgADP, Mg-vanadate, and MgATP-vanadate. No difference larger than 2% was found in the alpha-helix or beta-sheet content of the H(+)-ATPase in different conformational states. However, when the rate of hydrogen/deuterium exchange monitored by the evolution of the area of amide II and amide II' is decomposed into three components, the number of amide protons characterized by a short exchange rate (1.1 min) falls from 38% of the protein amide protons (or 37% in the presence of Mg2+ alone) to 24-27% in the presence of Mg-vanadate and MgATP-vanadate and to 19% in the presence of MgADP. These results suggest that the conformational changes known to occur when the H(+)-ATPase interacts with the above ligands are predominantly tertiary structure changes.

description: The aim of this work is to propose an alternative method for determining the condition of existence of "canard solutions" for three and four-dimensional singularly perturbed systems with only one fast variable in the folded saddle case. This method enables to state a unique generic condition for the existence of "canard solutions" for such three and four-dimensional singularly perturbed systems which is based on the stability of folded singularities of the normalized slow dynamics deduced from a well-known property of linear algebra. This unique generic condition is perfectly identical to that provided in previous works. Application of this method to the famous three and four-dimensional memristor canonical Chua's circuits for which the classical piecewise-linear characteristic curve has been replaced by a smooth cubic nonlinear function according to the least squares method enables to show the existence of "canard solutions" in such Memristor Based Chaotic Circuits.

description: The assumption of local equilibrium in relativistic heavy ion collisions at energies from 10.7 AGeV (AGS) up to 160 AGeV (SPS) is checked in the microscopic transport model. Dynamical calculations performed for a central cell in the reaction are compared to the predictions of the thermal statistical model. We find that kinetic, thermal and chemical equilibration of the expanding hadronic matter are nearly approached late in central collisions at AGS energy for $t \geq 10$ fm/$c$ in a central cell. At these times the equation of state may be approximated by a simple dependence $P \cong (0.12-0.15) ε$. Increasing deviations of the yields and the energy spectra of hadrons from statistical model values are observed for increasing energy, 40 AGeV and 160 AGeV. These violations of local equilibrium indicate that a fully equilibrated state is not reached, not even in the central cell of heavy ion collisions at energies above 10 AGeV. The origin of these findings is traced to the multiparticle decays of strings and many-body decays of resonances.

The nest entrance of each was a convoluted slit surrounded by a narrow elevated earthen wall, 2 cm high off the level of the surrounding soil, 4 to 6 cm in diameter, and turning outward toward the upper rim, and overall "resembling the calyx of a large monopetalous flower." Forel did not comment on the matter, but the praeusta entrance and superstructure are remarkably similar to the fortified cerumen nest entrances of some meliponine bees.

The curious case of the companion: evidence for cold accretion onto a dwarf satellite near the isolated elliptical NGC 7796

description: The isolated elliptical (IE) NGC 7796 is accompanied by an interesting early-type dwarf galaxy, named NGC7796-DW1. It exhibits a tidal tail, very boxy isophotes, and multiple nuclei or regions (A, B, and C) that are bluer than the bulk population of the galaxy, indicating a younger age. These properties are suggestive of a dwarf-dwarf merger remnant. We use the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) at the VLT to investigate NGC 7796-DW1. We extract characteristic spectra to which we apply the STARLIGHT population synthesis software to obtain ages and metallicities of the various population components of the galaxy. The galaxy's main body is old and metal-poor. A surprising result is the extended line emission in the galaxy, forming a ring-like structure with a projected diameter of 2.2 kpc. The line ratios fall into the regime of HII-regions, although OB-stellar populations cannot be identified by spectral signatures. Nucleus A is a relatively old (7 Gyr or older) and metal-poor super star cluster, most probably the nucleus of the dwarf, now displaced. The star-forming regions B and C show younger and distinctly more metal-rich components. The emission line ratios of regions B and C indicate an almost solar oxygen abundance, if compared with radiation models of HII regions. NGC7796-DW1 occupies a particular role in the group of transition-type galaxies with respect to its origin and current evolutionary state, being the companion of an IE. The dwarf-dwarf merger scenario is excluded because of the missing metal-rich merger component. A viable alternative is gas accretion from a reservoir of cold, metal-rich gas. NGC7796 has to provide this gas within its X-ray bright halo. As illustrated by NGC7796-DW1, cold accretion may be a general solution to the problem of extended star formation histories in transition dwarf galaxies. (abridged)

description: The low energy neutral excitations of incompressible fractional quantum Hall states are called collective modes or magnetic excitons. This work develops techniques for computing their dispersion at general filling fractions for reasonably large systems. New structure is revealed; in particular, the collective mode at 1/3 is found to possess several minima, with the energy of the principal minimum significantly smaller than the earlier estimate. \pacs{73.40.Hm, 73.20.Dx, 73.20.Mf}

description: Recently developed CAAX peptidomimetic compounds have been shown to be potent and specific inhibitors of farnesyl protein transferase activity and to block the growth of Ras-transformed cells. However, whether this growth inhibitory action is specifically a consequence of blocking oncogenic Ras signaling has not been determined. To address this question, we have utilized mutants of the normally farnesylated oncogenic Ras protein (Ras-F) that are modified by alternative lipids, a geranylgeranyl isoprenoid (Ras-GG) or the fatty acid myristate (Myr-Ras), to determine the specificity of the CAAX peptidomimetic compound, B581.

Revisiting non-perturbative effects in the jet broadenings

Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We show that taking into account the interplay between perturbative and non-perturbative effects, the power-suppressed shift to the broadening distributions becomes B dependent, and the non-perturbative contribution to the mean values becomes proportional to 1/(Q\sqrt{\as(Q)}). The new theoretical treatment greatly improves the consistency of the phenomenology with the notion of the universality of confinement effects in jet shapes.

description: Controlling the propagation and interaction of light in complex media has sparked major interest in the last few years. Unfortunately, spatial light modulation devices suffer from limited speed that precludes real-time applications such as imaging in live tissue. To address this critical problem we introduce a phase-control technique to characterize complex media based on the use of fast 1D spatial light modulators and a 1D-to-2D transformation performed by the same medium being analyzed. We implement the concept using a micro-electro-mechanical grating light valve (GLV) with 1088 degrees of freedom modulated at 350 KHz, enabling unprecedented high-speed wavefront measurements. We continuously measure the transmission matrix, calculate the optimal wavefront and project a focus through various dynamic scattering samples in real-time, all within 2.4 ms per cycle. These results improve prior wavefront shaping modulation speed by more than an order of magnitude and open new opportunities for optical processing using 1D-to-2D transformations.
