The Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy Technique to Study DNA-Protein Interactions

1.6K
This video demonstrates the circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy technique to study conformational changes occurring in DNA in the presence of ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling protein. The changes in the CD spectra measured in the presence and absence of ATP hydrolysis indicate the importance of ATP in the ability of the remodeler to induce conformational changes in the bound...

Deformation in a Circular Shaft

875
One of the distinctive characteristics of circular shafts is their ability to maintain their cross-sectional integrity under torsion. In other words, each cross-section continues to exist as a flat, unaltered entity, simply rotating like a solid, rigid slab. To understand the distribution of shearing stress within such a shaft, consider a cylindrical section inside this circular shaft. This section has a length of L and a radius of R, with one end fixed. The radius of the cylindrical section is...

Subatomic Particles

Dalton was only partially correct about the particles that make up matter. All matter is composed of atoms, and atoms are composed of three smaller subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. These three particles account for the mass and the charge of an atom.

Area of Science:

  • Nanophotonics
  • Quantum Optics
  • Condensed Matter Physics

Background:

  • Light interaction with nanostructures produces phenomena like optical torques and quantum friction.
  • The fundamental optical response of rotating nanostructures remains largely unexplored.
  • Understanding these interactions is key to advancing optical trapping and sensing technologies.

Purpose of the Study:

Main Methods:

  • Quantum-mechanical description of polarizability for rotating particles.
  • Modeling electronic state population based on thermal equilibrium in the rotating frame.
  • Analysis of optical resonance splitting and circular dichroism in various nanoparticle geometries.

Main Results:

  • Mechanical rotation induces circular dichroism in optically isotropic particles.
  • Nanoparticles with confined electron motion (nanorings, nanocrosses) show a 2Ω splitting in optical resonances.
  • Compact particles (nanodisks, nanospheres) exhibit weak circular dichroism.
  • Rotational superradiance and optical gain were observed, with an unexpected deviation in the optical frequency cutoff.
