Responsivity variants

The extension of density functional theory (DFT) to the dynamical description of atomic and molecular systems offers an efficient theoretical and computational tool for chemistry and molecular spectroscopy, namely, time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) [7-11]. This tool allows us to simulate the time evolution of electronic systems, so that changes in molecular structure and bonding over time due to applied time-dependent fields can be investigated. Its response variant TDDF(R)T is used to calculate frequency-dependent molecular response properties, such as polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilities [12-17]. Furthermore, TDDFRT overcomes the well-known difficulties in applying DFT to excited states [18], in the sense that the most important characteristics of excited states, the excitation energies and oscillator strengths, are calculated with TDDFRT [17, 19-26]. [Pg.52]

An interesting illustration of the effect that quite small alloying additions may sometimes have on anodic behaviour is seen in Fig. 4.27 from a comparison of the Ni-30Cu alloy Alloy 400 with its age-hardening variant Alloy K500, which contains 2-7% A1 and 0-6% Ti. The presence of these elements in the latter alloy is responsible for a well-defined passive region, whereas the former alloy shows only a slight tendency to passivate in acidic... [Pg.774]

While, as mentioned at the close of the last section, it took more than 15 years following Minsky and Papert s criticism of simple perceptrons for a bona-fide multilayered variant to finally emerge (see Multi-layeved Perceptrons below), the man most responsible for bringing respectability back to neural net research was the physicist John J, Hopfield, with the publication of his landmark 1982 paper entitled Neural networks and physical systems with emergent collective computational abilities [hopf82]. To set the stage for our discussion of Hopfield nets, we first pause to introduce the notion of associative memory. [Pg.518]

Equiactive (equieffective) molar concentration (potency) ratios (EMR, EPMR), variants of the term dose ratio or equiactive dose ratios. Usually pertaining to agonists, these are the molar concentrations that produce the same response in a given system. These ratios are dependent on the affinity and efficacy of the agonists and thus are system independent, that is, characterize agonists and receptors in all systems. Care must be taken that the maximal responses of the agonists concerned are equal. [Pg.278]

Gadduin analysis, Gadduin (method of), this method (Q. J. Exp. Physiol. 40, 49-74, 1955) compares equiactive concentrations of an agonist in the absence and presence of a concentration of noncompetitive antagonist that depresses the maximal agonist response. These are compared in a double reciprocal plot (or variant thereof) to yield the equilibrium dissociation constant of the noncompetitive antagonist-receptor complex (see Chapters 6.4 and 12.2.8). [Pg.279]

In mammalia, seven different members encoded by distinct genes have been identified, all of which are activated by a distinct set of cytokines. Diversity in signaling is provided by variants of STAT proteins derived from either alternative splicing of RNA transcripts or proteolytic processing (e.g., STATs 1,3,4, and 5) and the ability of certain STATs to form both homodimers and heterodimers with each other. In response to inteiferon-y monomeric STAT1 dimerizes, while upon interferon-a stimulation a heterotrimeric complex consisting of STAT 1 and STAT2 with associated... [Pg.667]

The class A enzymes have Mx values around 30,000. Their substrate specificities are quite variable and a large number of enzymes have emerged in response to the selective pressure exerted by the sometimes abusive utilization of antibiotics. Some of these new enzymes are variants of previously known enzymes, with only a limited number of mutations (1 4) but a significantly broadened substrate spectrum while others exhibit significantly different sequences. The first category is exemplified by the numerous TEM variants whose activity can be extended to third and fourth generation cephalosporins and the second by the NMCA and SME enzymes which, in contrast to all other SXXK (3-lactamases, hydrolyse carbapenems with high efficiency. Despite these specificity differences, the tertiary structures of all class A (3-lactamases are nearly superimposable. [Pg.681]

Chromatin remodeling, transcription factor modification by various enzyme activities, and the communication between the nuclear receptors and the basal transcription apparatus are accomplished by protein-protein interactions with one or more of a class of coregulator molecules. The number of these coregulator molecules now exceeds 100, not counting species variations and splice variants. The first of these to be described was the CREB-binding protein, CBP. CBP, through an amino terminal domain, binds to phosphorylated serine 137 of CREB and mediates transactivation in response to cAMP. It thus is described as a coactivator. CBP and... [Pg.471]
