Abstract: Liquid crystal monomers (LCMs) were recently proposed as persistent, bio-accumulative, and toxic substances; however, there is a dearth of information regarding their experimental octanol-water partition coefficients (KOW). In the present study, we determined the experimental… read more here.

Abstract: The two-domain protein RfaH, a paralog of the universally conserved NusG/Spt5 transcription factors, is regulated by autoinhibition coupled to the reversible conformational switch of its 60-residue C-terminal KOW domain between an α-hairpin and a β-barrel.… read more here.
