Abstract:
Re-examination of classical thermodynamics exposes some problems. The introduction of a new reasoning approach leads to a new branch of classical thermodynamics — structural thermodynamics. An inequality principle of thermodynamic state variables decouples structure of a process set with its working medium. The introduction of optimization into thermodynamic analyses changes the attitude of classical thermodynamics from observing/describing systems to controlling/optimizing the systems. To illustrate the approach, structural thermodynamic analyses are performed for reversible heat engines and a class of irreversible heat engines. This leads to and extends the classical Carnot theory.

Abstract:
Description of the recognition specificity between proteins and nucleic acids at the level of molecular interactions is one of the most challenging tasks in biophysics. It is key to understanding the course and control of gene expression and to the application of the thus acquired knowledge in chemotherapy. This review presents experimental results of thermodynamic studies and a discussion of the role of thermodynamics in formation and stability of functional protein-RNA complexes, with a special attention to the interactions involving mRNA 5' cap and cap-binding proteins in the initiation of protein biosynthesis in the eukaryotic cell. A theoretical framework for analysis of the thermodynamic parameters of protein-nucleic acid association is also briefly surveyed. Overshadowed by more spectacular achievements in structural studies, the thermodynamic investigations are of equal importance for full comprehension of biopolymers' activity in a quantitative way. In this regard, thermodynamics gives a direct insight into the energetic and entropic characteristics of complex macromolecular systems in their natural environment, aqueous solution, and thus complements the structural view derived from X-ray crystallography and multidimensional NMR. Further development of the thermodynamic approach toward interpretation of recognition and binding specificity in terms of molecular biophysics requires more profound contribution from statistical mechanics.

Abstract:
AbstractScattering techniques (i.e. light scattering, X-ray scattering, or neutron scattering) are very powerful tools to gain insights into structural and thermodynamic properties of matter which often cannot be obtained by other methods. While classical thermodynamics is independent of length scale or applies for indefinitely long length scale, scattering can disclose thermodynamic properties like the free energy or free enthalpy as functions of length scale. Scattering is caused by density or composition fluctuations, which are functions of the length scale in one- or multicomponent systems. Therefore scattering techniques can give informations about the size, shape and molecular weight of scattering objects, their thermodynamic interactions with a surrounding matrix and their dynamics if correlations of the fluctuations as function of time are investigated (i.e. dynamic light scattering). As scattering techniques are less intuitive in comparison to complementary techniques, i.e. microscopic techniques, the aim of this article is to highlight some relevant relationships with a focus on polymer systems. This may encourage polymer scientists to consider the use of scattering techniques to learn more about the thermodynamics of their systems and/or to gain informations about their structural properties.

Abstract:
We discuss new developments in the nonequilibrium dynamics and thermodynamics of living systems, giving a few examples to demonstrate the importance of nonequilibrium thermodynamics for understanding biological dynamics and functions. We study single-molecule enzyme dynamics, in which the nonequilibrium thermodynamic and dynamic driving forces of chemical potential and flux are crucial for the emergence of non-Michaelis-Menten kinetics. We explore single-gene expression dynamics, in which nonequilibrium dissipation can suppress fluctuations. We investigate the cell cycle and identify the nutrition supply as the energy input that sustains the stability, speed, and coherence of cell cycle oscillation, from which the different vital phases of the cell cycle emerge. We examine neural decision-making processes and find the trade-offs among speed, accuracy, and thermodynamic costs that are important for neural function. Lastly, we consider the thermodynamic cost for specificity in cellular signaling and adaptation.

Full text
Abstract:
Calcineurin (CaN), a heterodimeric Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent Ser/Thr phosphatase, regulates diverse pathways, from stress responses in yeast to T-cell activation and cardiac hypertrophy in humans. Calmodulin (CaM), an essential mediator of calcium–dependent signaling pathways, activates CaN in the presence of calcium by binding to an intrinsically disordered region of the enzyme and altering its conformation. My hydrodynamic studies have determined that CaM participates in a 1:1 complex with the CaM-binding domain of βCaN (CaNp, residues 400–423). To explore the molecular mechanism of CaM association with CaN, I have used spectroscopic methods to determine the calcium-dependent and domain–specific interactions of CaM with CaNp. These studies revealed that the affinity of CaM1–148 for CaNp was weak in the absence of calcium, and very high (Kd in the nM to pM range) in the presence of calcium. I have demonstrated that CaNp binding to CaM increases the calcium–binding affinity of each domain of CaM1–148 to a similar degree, thereby retaining the property of sequential calcium binding to the domains, with preference for sites in the C–domain. This allows the N–domain to lag in response to an increase in cellular calcium and perhaps contribute to the regulation of CaN in a manner distinct from that of the C–domain. NMR studies of calcium–saturated CaM1–148 demonstrated that the N–domain of CaM experienced a larger structural perturbation than the C–domain upon binding CaNp. Additional NMR studies revealed that CaNp adopts an anti–parallel orientation when bound to CaM, with the sole aromatic residue of CaNp contacting the N–domain of CaM. This contrasts with many CaM-target complexes in which the sole aromatic residue contacts the C–domain of CaM. Rigorous thermodynamic studies explored how mutations in the calcium-binding sites of mammalian CaM (mCaM) and mutations known to cause disruption of CaM–mediated ion channel regulation in Paramecia (PCaM) affected the allosteric interactions of the domains of CaM in the presence of CaNp. These studies demonstrated separable roles of the domains of CaM in recognition of CaNp. The consequences of a mutation depended upon its location within the complex. Collectively, research presented in this thesis provides insight into the mechanisms whereby the two domains of CaM contribute to recognition of CaN.

Abstract:
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is an essential protein in the cell. It is involved in transcription and many types of DNA repair and replication. Homologues of this protein are found in all orders of life. The high level of conservation and essential nature of PCNA infers that it may be a potential drug target for anti-caner drugs in humans and also a potential anti-parasitic target. X-ray structures of PCNA from Homo sapiens (Hs), Schizosaccharomyces pombe (Sp) and Leishmania major (Lm) are now available and can be used as a template for structure based drug design. In this work PCNA from these three species have been prepared in milligram quantities for biochemical and biophysical studies. The previously unknown structure of LmPCNA has been solved in an uncomplexed form and also complexed with a dodecapeptide to a resolution of 3.0Å. A comparison of PCNA structures and their peptide complexes for the three species identifies structural differences which may be relevant in analysing thermodynamic contributions of binding. All eukaryotic PCNA molecules exist as ring shaped trimers which form around DNA. In this work the oligomeric state of LmPCNA has been determined to be hexameric both in solution and in the crystal. It has also been hypothesised that HsPCNA is hexameric however these would seem to form hexamers in which the trimeric rings associate “back-to-back” while LmPCNA trimers would seem to associate “face-to-face”. The binding affinities for these three PCNAs have been determined with a selection of peptides derived from the Hs p21 protein. This work has shown, using a selection of different techniques including Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR), Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) and Dynamic Scanning Fluorimetry (DSF); that HsPCNA and SpPCNA have similar affinities for a 12mer peptide (Kd of ~1μM) however LmPCNA shows significantly weaker interactions (Kd of ~10μM). This is most likely due to divergence in the sequence and structure of LmPCNA. A systematic investigation by SPR on the effect of peptide linker length on binding has been carried out using a series of synthesised peptides with different lengths of chemical spacer. The series of streptavidin immobilised peptides show that longer spacers are required for the recovery of the PCNA peptide binding affinity. The results presented in this work indicate that a linker length of at least 20Å is required for measurable protein binding activity. This interaction is improved with longer peptide spacers.

Full text
Abstract:
The main focus of the thesis is to have better understanding of the atomic and electronic structures, vibrational dynamics and thermodynamics of metallic surfaces and bi-metallic nanoparticles (NPs) via a multi-scale simulational approach. The research presented here involves the study of the physical and chemical properties of metallic surfaces and NPs that are useful to determine their functionality in building novel materials. The study follows the  bottom-up approach for which the knowledge gathered at the scale of atoms and NPs serves as a base to build, at the macroscopic scale, materials with desired physical and chemical properties. We use a variety of theoretical and computational tools with different degrees of accuracy to study problems in different time and length scales. Interactions between the atoms are derived using both Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Embedded Atom Method (EAM), depending on the scale of the problem at hand. For some cases, both methods are used for the purpose of comparison. For revealing the local contributions to the vibrational dynamics and thermodynamics for the systems possessing site-specific environments, a local approach in real-space is used, namely Real Space Green s Function method (RSGF). For simulating diffusion of atoms/clusters and growth on metal surfaces, Molecular Statics (MS) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) methods are employed.<br>Ph.D.<br>Department of Physics<br>Sciences<br>Physics PhD

Abstract:
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is a crucial tool for determining the structures of biological molecules. This technique can also be used to extract thermodynamic parameters of these molecules, enhancing our understanding of their biological roles. DNA is analyzed through NMR Spectroscopy in order to identify the effect of sequence on expressivity. DNA predominantly resides in BI orientation, but a second conformation, BII, also exists. DNA can switch between BI and BII backbone conformations and the likelihood of this switching is dependent upon the energetic barrier between these two sub-states. The secondary structure of DNA, and thus its adoption of BI and BII conformation, is sequence-dependent. Therefore, the identity and neighboring base pairs of a segment of DNA have a large effect on the flexibility of the backbone. Methylation also affects backbone structure. The methyl group has been shown to promote either stabilization and/or destabilization on proximate bases. This thesis uses variable temperature NMR and Mathematica modeling to determine the backbone conformations, rate of inter-conversion between BI/BII conformations, and the energetic barrier of this fluctuation for each nucleotide step in DNA dodecamers containing the CRE binding sequence. This has been a long-term goal of the Hatcher-Skeers lab, and the data from this thesis would have been added to years of flanked CRE DNA information to reveal any patterns. In this experiment, 5’-TTTC-3’ CRE DNA dodecamers underwent NMR analyses to extract backbone flexibility parameters. Additionally, the effect of methylation was studied in scans with methylated cytosine in the central CRE sequence. The TRX scale was used to predict the BII character of these sequences. Due to technical errors, the experimental results were not able to accurately represent the specific dynamics of each backbone step. However, general trends were identified, such as adherence to and veracity of the TRX scale and the effect of methylation. It was found that the %BII of the native DNA closely resembled the TRX predictions, whilst the methylated sequence did not. The largest changes in activation energy due to methylation occurred in the central CRE sequence, suggesting methylation is a localized effect. The results reflected several trends from past CRE experiments, but the data cannot be explicitly analyzed due to the technical errors.

Abstract:
Using fundamentals of irreversible thermodynamics, with specific focus on entropy generation, this paper studies the structural integrity of degraded materials. All damage mechanisms share a common feature namely energy dissipation. Dissipation, as a fundamental measure for irreversibility in a thermodynamic treatment of non-equilibrium processes, is quantified by entropy generation. Based on the theoretical relationship between entropy generation and generalized thermodynamic forces and fluxes, the entropic damage is measured during a corrosion-fatigue degradation experiment. Life estimation of components, which were subject to complex corrosion-fatigue degradation mechanism, was then estimated through a proposed entropic-based prognostic framework. The performance of predictions was evaluated and compared with previous predictions in terms of the influence of additional features on components health assessment.

Abstract:
Abstract Modern high performance aircraft engines typically have variable geometry nozzles in order to operate at optimal throat areas and throat-to-exit area ratios over a wide range of flight conditions. Designing such a nozzle requires interaction between analysis disciplines such as mechanisms analysis, structural analysis, aerodynamics and thermodynamics. Two issues of importance are reliable data flow between the disciplines and design cycle time. An Exhaust Nozzle Analysis System (ENAS) was developed for evaluating designs of convergent-divergent two-dimensional nozzles. The system incorporates aerodynamic and thermodynamic analyses to allow concurrent engineering, in one automated system mechanism. The system provides the necessary interfaces between analysis codes and between analysis tools and empirical data. While the system described in this paper addresses the design of a single nozzle, the approach is generic and can be applied to any system where a number of disciplines such as mechanism analysis, aerodynamics, structural analysis, and thermodynamics are considered concurrently.

Abstract:
This report introduces the first release of CORPS-STIF (Concrete Observations Repository and Predictive Software – Structural and Thermodynamical Integrated Framework). CORPS-STIF is envisioned to be used as a tool to optimize material constituents and geometries of mass concrete placements specifically for ultra-high performance concretes (UHPCs). An observations repository (OR) containing results of 649 mechanical property tests and 10 thermodynamical tests were recorded to be used as inputs for current and future releases. A thermodynamical integrated framework (TIF) was developed where the heat transfer coefficient was a function of temperature and determined at each time step. A structural integrated framework (SIF) modeled strength development in cylinders that underwent isothermal curing. CORPS-STIF represents a step toward understanding and predicting strength gain of UHPC for full-scale structures and specifically in mass concrete.
