Many enveloped animal viruses produce a variety of particle shapes, ranging from small
spherical to long filamentous types. Characterization of how the shape of the virion affects …

Hsp70 chaperones bind short monomeric peptides with a weak characteristic affinity in the
low micromolar range, but can also bind some aggregates, fibrils, and amyloids, with low …

Hsp70-family chaperones bind short monomeric peptides with a weak characteristic affinity
in the low micromolar range, but can also bind some aggregates, fibrils, and amyloids, with …

Assembly of many enveloped animal viruses yields a mixture of particle morphologies, from
small, essentially isometric forms to vastly longer, filamentous forms. Selective advantage of …

… This dissertation, directed and approved by Erin Elizabeth Deans’ Committee, has been
accepted and approved by the Faculty of Brandeis University in partial fulfillment of the …

Many enveloped animal viruses, including emerging human pathogens Ebola, Nipah, and
Hendra viruses, produce a mixture of virus-particle sizes including very long, filamentous …

Packing interaction is a critical driving force in the folding of helical membrane proteins.
Despite the importance, packing defects (ie, cavities including voids, pockets, and pores) are …

The ongoing climate crisis decimates landscapes, species, and human survivability.
Environmental disasters and hazards are occurring more frequently in part because the climate …

Packing interaction is a critical driving force in the folding of membrane proteins. Despite of
the importance, packing defects are prevalent in membrane proteins, and the role of the …

Pediatric Hospital Medicine (PHM), a field early in its development and with a robust
pipeline of women, is in a unique position to lead the way in gender equity. We describe the …
