N-glycosylation in the thermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius involves a short dolichol pyrophosphate carrier.
(FEBS Lett, 2016-09)N-glycosylation is a post-translational modification that occurs across evolution. In the thermoacidophilic archaea Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, glycoproteins are modified by an N-linked tribranched hexasaccharide reminiscent ... -
[N]pT ensemble and finite-size-scaling study of the critical isostructural transition in the generalized exponential model of index 4
(Physical Review E - Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, 2012-10-15)First-order transitions of system where both lattice site occupancy and lattice spacing fluctuate, such as cluster crystals, cannot be efficiently studied by traditional simulation methods, which necessarily fix one of these ... -

[N]pT Monte Carlo simulations of the cluster-crystal-forming penetrable sphere model.
(J Chem Phys, 2012-06-07)Certain models with purely repulsive pair interactions can form cluster crystals with multiply-occupied lattice sites. Simulating these models' equilibrium properties is, however, quite challenging. Here, we develop an expanded ... -

NAFTA and the apparel commodity chain: Corporate strategies, interfirm networks, and industrial upgrading
(Free Trade & Uneven Development: North American Apparel Industry After Nafta, 2009-12-01)The apparel industry is one of the oldest and largest export industries in the world, with global trade and production networks that connect firms and workers in countries at all levels of economic development. This chapter ... -
NAFTA and uneven development in the North American apparel industry
(Free Trade & Uneven Development: North American Apparel Industry After Nafta, 2009-12-01)The various contributions to this book have documented how NAFTA-inspired firm strategies are changing the geography of apparel production in North America. The authors show in myriad ways how companies at different positions ... -
Naked and Unashamed: A Study of the Aphrodite Anadyomene in the Greco-Roman World
(2010)This dissertation presents a study of the Aphrodite Anadyomene type in its cultural and physical contexts. Like many other naked Aphrodites, the Anadyomene was not posed to conceal the body, but with arms raised, naked ... -

Nanofabrication at high throughput and low cost.
(ACS Nano, 2010-07-27)The task of nanofabrication can, in principle, be divided into two separate tracks: generation and replication of the patterned features. These two tracks are different in terms of characteristics, requirements, and aspects ... -
Nanomechanics of Ankyrin Repeat Proteins
(2011)Ankyrin repeats (ARs) are polypeptide motifs identified in thousands of proteins. Many AR proteins play a function as scaffolds in protein-protein interactions which may require specific mechanical properties. Also, a number ... -
Nanomechanics of Nucleic Acid Structures Investigated with AFM Based Force Spectroscopy
(2010)Nucleic acids are subjected to many different mechanical loadings inside. These loadings could cause large deformations and conformational changes to these molecules. This is why the mechanical properties of nucleic ... -
Nanophotonics: Optical time reversal with graphene
(2013-07)Would you ever guess that a microscopic flake of graphite could reverse the diffraction of light? An experiment that demonstrates just such an effect highlights the exciting optical applications of graphene — an atomic layer ... -
Nanoscale Resonance Energy Transfer-Based Devices for Probabilistic Computing
(IEEE Micro, 2015-09-01)© 1981-2012 IEEE.Despite the theoretical advances in probabilistic computing, a fundamental mismatch persists between the deterministic hardware that traditional computers use and the stochastic nature of probabilistic ... -
Nanosecond Shock Wave-Induced Surface Acoustic Waves and Fracture at Fluid-Solid
(2018)I investigate the generation and propagation characteristics of leaky Rayleigh waves (LRWs) by a spherical shock wave incident on a glass-water boundary both experimentally and numerically. The maximum tensile stress produced ... -
Nanostructured Metal Oxide Coatings for Electrochemical Energy Conversion and Storage Electrodes
(2016)The realization of an energy future based on safe, clean, sustainable, and economically viable technologies is one of the grand challenges facing modern society. Electrochemical energy technologies underpin the potential ... -
Nanotopography-induced changes in focal adhesions, cytoskeletal organization, and mechanical properties of human mesenchymal stem cells.
(Biomaterials, 2010-02)The growth of stem cells can be modulated by physical factors such as extracellular matrix nanotopography. We hypothesize that nanotopography modulates cell behavior by changing the integrin clustering and focal adhesion ... -
