Patent number: 10953385Abstract: Primary, secondary (1º,2º) alkylethylenediamine- and alkylpropylenediamine-appended variants of metal-organic framework are provided for CO2 capture applications. Increasing the size of the alkyl group on the secondary amine enhances the stability to diamine volatilization from the metal sites. Two-step adsorption/desorption profiles are overcome by minimizing steric interactions between adjacent ammonium carbamate chains. For instance, the isoreticularly expanded framework Mg2(dotpdc) (dotpdc4?=4,4?-dioxido-[1,1?:4?,1?-terphenyl]-3,3?-dicarboxylate), yields diamine-appended adsorbents displaying a single CO2 adsorption step. Further, use of the isomeric framework Mg-IRMOF-74-II or Mg2(pc-dobpdc) (pc-dobpdc4?=3,3-dioxidobiphenyl-4,4-dicarboxylate, pc=para-carboxylate) also leads to a single CO2 adsorption step with bulky diamines.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2018Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignees: The Regents of the University of California, ExxonMobil Research and Engineering CompanyInventors: Jeffrey R.

Patent number: 10071990Abstract: A technique is provided to visualize microtubules in live cells that does not require genetic manipulation or microinjection. Moreover, this method also avoids perturbation of the endogenous microtubule network that occurs with taxol treatment. This technique exploits tyrosination and detyrosination of tubulin, a posttranslational modification cycle specific to the C-terminus of ?-tubulin. Specifically, cells are grown in medium supplemented with a tyrosine derivative possessing a reactive functional group. The cellular enzyme tubulin tyrosine ligase attaches the unnatural amino acid to a single site on tubulin. Addition of fresh medium containing a suitably derivatized fluorophore then yields fluorescent tubulin, which incorporate into cellular microtubules. Importantly, the tubulin labeling approach demonstrated here does not detrimentally affect microtubule network or cell morphology. Thus we present a simple, robust labeling technique that allows microscopic analysis of microtubules in live cells.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2014Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: The Research Foundation for The State University of New YorkInventors: Susan Bane Tuttle, Kamalika Mukherjee
