Single Molecule Mechanics on a Surface
by Francesca Moresco, Christian Joachim
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031169298 | 197 pages | True PDF EPUB | 91.51 MB
Written by the leading experts of this field, this book results from the International Symposium on "Single Molecule Machines on a Surface: Gears, Train of Gears, Motors, and Cars" which took place in Toulouse, France on November 24th - 25th, 2021. The different chapters focus on describing the use of single molecule mechanics on a surface and analyze the different steps leading to the design of a single molecule nanocar. The authors present how a single molecule is rotating, how a single molecule gear can participate to a train of molecule gears to propagate motion and how this knowledge is used for the design of nanocars. The way energy is provided to a single molecule and how this energy drives it onto the surface is also analyzed. A large portion of this volume is written by the eight teams selected to participate in the Nanocar Race II event. This book is of great use to graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and researchers who are interested in single molecule mechanics and who want to know more about the fundamentals and applications of this new research field.

Retrotransposons And Human Disease: L1 Retrotransposons As A Source Of Genetic Diversity
by Abram Gabriel;
English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811249210 | 260 pages | True PDF EPUB | 25.83 MB
Thirty years ago we knew that retrotransposons made up at least half of our genomes, but little about their role in biology. The human genome has since been sequenced and the position of all retrotransposons in the reference sequence has been determined. However, as of today, the function of retrotransposons still remains elusive. We know much more about the diseases associated with their movement and the host defenses we all have against them.
