Relay matrix

Here the dot indicates contraction over Cartesian coordinates, tK is a component of the vector tjf(r) = (r — rK)/ATrsf r — rK 3, and M is the 3 x 3 block, corresponding to the Tfth and 7th atoms, of the so-called relay matrix, which gives an atomic representation of the molecular polarizability. The supermatrix M has dimension 3Na x 3Na, and is defined as ... 

Reelin is an extracellular matrix protein, which is secreted by neuronal cells and binds to two lipoprotein receptors (VLDLR and ApoER2) that relay the Reelin signal inside target neurons by docking the tyrosine kinase adapter disabled-1 (Dabl). This allows neurons to complete migration and adopt their ultimate positions in laminar structures in the central nervous system. In... 

The information content resulting from both processing methods is identical insofar as correlation information is concerned. The matrix-square-root transformation can minimize artefacts due to relay effects and chemical shift near degeneracy (pseudo-relay effects80-82 98). The application of covariance methods to compute HSQC-1,1-ADEQUATE spectra is described in the following section. 

Figure 30. Analysis of cross-talk interactions in 12(n). Splitting energies are in eV. Three models, constructed from NBO/3-21G matrix elements for 12(8), 12(10), and 12(12) are considered model A allows for coupling through a single relay model B through two relays, but with no cross-talk and model C through two relays with cross-talk (represented by wavy lines). Results from Hartree-Fock calculations on the 12( ) series as well as for the corresponding molecules with a l-trans alkane bridges 41(b) are also included.

Although conducting polymers have demonstrated direct electrochemical communication with nitrate reductases, the incorporation of electron relay groups within the polymer matrix provides a more efficient pathway for electron hopping between the enzyme and the electrode surface. Several artificial electron donors can shuttle electrons to the oxidized form of nitrate reductase with methyl viologen being the best choice due to its very negative redox potential [214-216]. The electron transfer reactions can be represented as follows ... 

However, ET efficiency is not only dependent on the distance of the involved redox relays but also on the properties of the electrode material, the nature of the enzyme, the properties of the immobilization matrix, and the redox mediator (if any) in a complex manner. 

The essence of relay-race (or concerted) copolymerization thus lies in the coexistence of two different bound active sites in the same polymer matrix, the first being responsible for dimerization and the second for copolymerization of butene with ethylene [116], The general scheme of the process can be represented as in Eq. (12-16). 

Electron transfer from the photoexcited Ru(bpy)3 (3) to MV (2) in a polymer solid phase was reported for the first time by utilizing a cellulose (paper) matrix adsorbing the Ru complex, MV, and a sacrificial electron donor, ethylenedia-minetetraacetic acid (EDTA) [70]. Irradiation of the cellulose by visible light ( x 450 nm) gave a blue-colored M G formed by electron relay from Ru(bpy)3 to MV and then from EDTA to the produced Ru(bpy)3 (Eq. (14-16)). This is therefore a combined electron-transfer system, the first step being...
