The vast majority of this biomass would come from sources that do not compete with food: crop residues, animal manure, residues from construction and demolition debris, and the like, with "relatively modest changes in land use, and agricultural and forestry practices," according to the report.
He advocated strongly for imagination, innovation and opening up the sector to options other than lumber, pulp and residue – such as construction, pharmaceuticals, and a variety of other sectors.
We selected the appropriate amino acid residues for pseudoreceptor construction by considering two important factors.
We use rc = 6.7 Å as in our previous work, which is the distance where the first coordination shells ends, as computed from the radial distribution function (RDF) shown in figure 3. See references [16], [17], [46] for more details on the construction of residue networks and the choice of rc.
One of these short LRRs from Skp2 crystal structure (residue 2211 to 2235) was used as a template for construction of the GALA-LRR model (see Methods for details).
Twelve aromatic molecules containing two methylthiomethyl groups were used as construction units ("residues").
According to the report, bunker 41 contained 2,000 empty 155mm artillery shells contaminated with the chemical warfare agent mustard, 605 one-tonne mustard containers with residues, and heavily contaminated construction material.
Based on the assumed catalytic mechanism and computational docking of Aza to the active site of the enzyme, active-site residues were selected for construction of focused mutant libraries, which were thereafter screened for Aza activity.
The molecular mechanism may involve the syn- or anti-conformation of guanine residues of G-quartet construction (Additional file 2: Figure S1), and optional modified sites (except for ion effect).
