Intrinsically Disordered Proteins02:18

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins

19.6K
Intrinsically disordered proteins are a group of proteins that do not fold into specific three-dimensional structures. Their structural flexibility allows them to complement ordered proteins to perform functions that are inaccessible to rigid structures. They are more common in eukaryotes than prokaryotes and may either be exclusively intrinsically disordered or hybrid proteins, consisting of a mix of ordered and disordered regions. The absence of a rigid structure in these proteins can be...

Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis

13.3K
Blood clotting or coagulation involves extrinsic and intrinsic pathways, which ultimately merge into the common pathway, forming a fibrin clot.
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which...

The Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway01:31

The Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway

8.7K
Internal cellular stress, such as cellular injury or hypoxia, triggers intrinsic apoptosis. The B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family of proteins are the primary regulators of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. For example, during DNA damage, checkpoint proteins, such as Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM protein) and Checkpoints Factor-2 (Chk2) proteins, are activated. These proteins phosphorylate p53 which further activates pro-apoptotic proteins, such as Bax, Bak, PUMA, and Noxa, and inhibits...

Types of Genetic Transfer Between Organisms02:18

Types of Genetic Transfer Between Organisms

31.2K
Genetic transfer occurs when genetic information is passed from one organism to another. It occurs via two mechanisms: vertical gene transfer and horizontal gene transfer. Vertical gene transfer occurs when genetic information is transferred from one generation to the next, which happens much more frequently than horizontal gene transfer. Both sexual and asexual reproduction are forms of vertical gene transfer, where one or more organisms pass some or all of their genome onto their progeny.

Thermal Strain01:19

Thermal Strain

2.9K
Thermal strain is a concept that arises when we consider how temperature changes affect structures. Unlike the conventional assumption that structures remain constant under load, real-world scenarios often involve temperature fluctuations that can significantly impact these structures. Consider a homogeneous rod with a uniform cross-section resting freely on a flat horizontal surface. If the rod's temperature increases, the rod elongates. This elongation is proportional to the temperature...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Organic Electronics
  • Wearable Technology

Background:

  • Intrinsically stretchable organic photodetectors (IS-OPDs) are crucial for wearable electronics but suffer performance degradation under strain.
  • Existing IS-OPDs face trade-offs between mechanical flexibility and optoelectronic efficiency in their photoactive layers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an IS-OPD with enhanced detectivity under tensile strain.
  • To overcome the performance limitations of current stretchable photodetectors.

Main Methods:

  • Designed a mechanically robust and efficient bilayer photoactive architecture (EBL-D).
  • Incorporated percolated polymer donor (PD):elastomer networks for stretchability and charge transport.
  • Utilized a small-molecule acceptor layer to expand absorption and minimize recombination.

Main Results:

  • The EBL-D architecture IS-OPD maintained high responsivity and suppressed dark current under strain.
  • Achieved a 1.5-fold improvement in specific detectivity (from 1.9 × 1013 to 2.8 × 1013 Jones at 860 nm) under 75% strain.
  • Demonstrated a 1.3-fold increase in detectivity, accounting for the enlarged photoactive area.

Conclusions:

  • The developed EBL-D IS-OPD exhibits strain-induced detectivity enhancement, a novel finding in stretchable photodetectors.
  • This architecture offers a promising pathway for high-performance, durable wearable optical sensing applications.
