a molecule may be polar or non-polar. a non-polar molecule has a structure of its atoms lined up in a way that the orbital electrons in the outer region cancel out the electronegativity. in general, pyramid-shaped and v-shaped molecules are said to be polar. whereas the linear molecules...
Geometry optimization and frequency calculations were conducted using various DFT functionals. In line with recent findings concerning the rigorous application of BET, the characterization of bond formations and scissions via unfoldings was carried out by carefully monitoring the determinant of the Hessian ...
what are some of the properties of water determined by its polarity? answer: water has high cohesion properties due to its polarity, which means it sticks strongly to similar molecules. it is referred to as the universal solvent because it can dissolve anything found in nature due to its ...
We found that glaA mRNA was significantly transcribed and localized near the hyphal tip and septum, which are the sites of protein secretion, in polarity-dependent expression and localization manners. We also revealed that glaA mRNA exhibits long-range dynamics in the vicinity of the endoplasmic ...
Note that symmetric molecules are usually nonpolar, and mole- cules that are asymmetric are polar as long as the bond type is polar. Is the molecule of ammonia (NH3), shown in Figure 8.23c, polar? It has a central nitrogen atom and three terminal hydrogen atoms. Its shape is a trigonal...
How reproducible body patterns emerge from the collective activity of individual cells is a key question in developmental biology. Plant cells are encaged in their walls and unable to migrate. Morphogenesis thus relies on directional cell division, by pr
The notion that polarity regulators can act as tumor suppressors in epithelial cells is now well accepted. The function of these proteins in lymphocytes is less well explored, and their possible function as suppressors of leukemia has had little attentio
The second term to the right of the equality sign in equation 1.1, log ac, represents the decrease in the solubility due to differences in intermolecular interactions of the solute and solvent molecules. This term is often represented by: (1.2) where Cll represents the interaction forces between...
its ability to form large complexes via its self-homologous binding domain. In addition to its role in polarity, PARD3 is a scaffolding protein that binds to intracellular signalling molecules, many of which are frequently deregulated in cancer. The role of PARD3 has been implicated in multiple...
Filamentous fungi are highly polarized eukaryotic cells, which continuously elongate their hyphae at the tips. The extension of hyphal tips requires the continuous enlargement of the cell membrane and the extension of the cell wall. Both are achieved thr
