Network proximal

On a second front, in all of the systems described here, the hydrogen bond interface is required to maintain assembly of the supramolecular complex. This construct makes it difficult to assess the effect of pA a on the coupled electron- and proton-transfer reactions. By placing a network proximal to, yet distinct from, the electron transfer pathway while maintaining independent spectroscopic signatures for electron and proton transfer, the kinetics for the isolated events can be examined as the pATa of the environment is systematically varied. 

Because of the intrinsic flexibility and poor resonance dispersion of unfolded and partly folded proteins, long-range NOEs are generally very difficult to observe and assign. While observation of a long-range NOE between two protons provides a definitive indication that they are in close proximity in at least some structures in the conformational ensemble, determination of the nature of the folded structures is difficult unless an extensive network of NOEs can be observed. This has so far been achieved in only one case (Mok et al., 1999). 

The point is also made [134] that the very high surface areas and the richly interconnected three-dimensional networks of these micron-sized spaces, coupled with periods of desiccation, could together have produced microenvironments rich in cat-alytically produced complex chemicals and possibly membrane-endosed vesides of bacterial size. These processes would provide the proximate concatenation of lipid vesicular precursors with the complex chemicals that would ultimately produce the autocatalytic and self-replicating chiral systems. A 2.5 km2 granite reef is estimated to contain possibly 1018 catalytic microreactors, open by diffusion to the dynamic reservoir of organic molecules. .. but protected from the dispersive effects of flow and convection [134] as well as protected from the high flux of ultraviolet radiation impinging on the early Earth.

The blood first reaches the glomerulus, the filter unit of the nephron. The glomerular filtrate, i.e. blood deprived of macromolecules and blood cells, passes through the tubular lumen. The blood which is not filtered, flows through the efferent arteriole into the network of capillaries around the tubules suppl5dng the proximal and distal tubules with blood. 

These experiments provide identification of the through-bond spin coupling network as well as through-space proximity between spins. Examples of the application of these techniques have demonstrated the efficiency of these techniques in establishing the assignment, sequence and linkage site information for oligo- and poly-saccharides [59-60, 62-65], and for saponins [29].
