Immobilization of proteins in silica gel: Biochemical and biophysical properties
2015
The development of silica-based sol-gel techniques compatible with the retention of protein structure and function started more than 20 years ago, mainly for the design of biotechnological devices or biomedical applications. Silica gels are optically transparent, exhibit good mechanical stability, are manufactured with different geometries, and are easily separated from the reaction media. Biomolecules encapsulated in silica gel normally retain their structural and functional properties, are stabilized with respect to chemical and physical insults, and can sometimes exhibit enhanced activity in comparison to the soluble form. This review briefly describes the chemistry of protein encapsulat…
Investigating protein structure and dynamics through wide-angle X-ray solution scattering
2016
Wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) is a powerful tool that can be used to gain information on the structure and dynamics of proteins and other biomolecules in solution. Improved methods for the calculation of WAXS patterns from available or putative protein models allow to better exploit the structural information contained in the experimental data. These methods, together with recent applications of static and time-resolved WAXS, are briefly reviewed.
Phasor-FLIM for a direct investigation of Transportan 10 interactions with model membranes
2023
Transportan 10 (TP10), a short and positive charged peptide, belonging to the family of the cell penetrating peptides has gained increasing attention for its antimicrobial and anticancer activity but also for its applications in drug delivery as it is able to translocate therapeutic molecules in cellular environment. Due to the complexity of the phenomena involved in cellular uptake and following processes, which strongly depend on the membrane lipid composition, structural details of the peptide (e.g., charge, hydrophobicity, steric hindrance) and environmental conditions, it is not easy to understand the general rules governing them. Here, we combine spectroscopic techniques and fluoresce…

More mathematics on pseudo-bosons
2013
We propose an alternative definition for pseudo-bosons. This simplifies the mathematical structure, minimizing the required assumptions. Some physical examples are discussed, as well as some mathematical results related to the biorthogonal sets arising out of our framework. We also briefly extend the results to the so-called nonlinear pseudo-bosons.
Pseudo-bosons, so far
2011
In the past years several extensions of the canonical commutation relations have been proposed by different people in different contexts and some interesting physics and mathematics have been deduced. Here, we review some recent results on the so-called pseudo-bosons. They arise from a special deformation of the canonical commutation relation [a,a †]= ll, which is replaced by [a,b]=ll, with b not necessarily equal to a †. We start discussing some of their mathematical properties and then we discuss several examples.
