  2. Salt bridge (protein and supramolecular) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_bridge_(protein_and...

    Using a mutated pseudo-wild-type protein specifically mutated to prevent precipitation at high pH, the salt bridge’s contribution to the overall free energy of the folded protein state can be determined by performing a point-mutation, altering and, consequently, breaking the salt bridge. For example, a salt bridge was identified to exist in ...

  3. Salt bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_bridge

    In electrochemistry, a salt bridge or ion bridge is an essential laboratory device discovered over 100 years ago. [ 1 ] It contains an electrolyte solution, typically an inert solution, used to connect the oxidation and reduction half-cells of a galvanic cell (voltaic cell), a type of electrochemical cell .

  4. TIM barrel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIM_barrel

    Example salt bridge network in 2-deoxyribose-5-phosphate aldolase ( ). Interactions are shown as cyan dashed lines. Polar residues are colored green. Polar amino acids aspartate (D), glutamate (E), lysine (K), and arginine (R), are shown here. Salt bridges within TIM barrel pores are thought to contribute to the overall stability of the fold.

  5. DNA separation by silica adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_separation_by_silica...

    A chaotrope denatures biomolecules by disrupting the shell of hydration around them. This allows positively charged ions to form a salt bridge between the negatively charged silica and the negatively charged DNA backbone in high salt concentration. The DNA can then be washed with high salt and ethanol, and ultimately eluted with low salt.

  6. Acidophile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acidophile

    Other mechanisms include minimization of solvent accessibility of acidic residues or binding of metal cofactors. In a specialized case of acid stability, the NAPase protein from Nocardiopsis alba was shown to have relocated acid-sensitive salt bridges away from regions that play an important role in the unfolding process. In this case of ...

  8. Cell notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_notation

    In electrochemistry, cell notation or cell representation is a shorthand method of expressing a reaction in an electrochemical cell.. In cell notation, the two half-cells are described by writing the formula of each individual chemical species involved in the redox reaction across the cell, with all other common ions and inert substances being ignored.

  9. Galvanic cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_cell

    An example of a galvanic cell consists of two different metals, each immersed in separate beakers containing their respective metal ions in solution that are connected by a salt bridge or separated by a porous membrane. [1] Volta was the inventor of the voltaic pile, the first electrical battery.
