A new polishing technique for three dimensional micro/meso-scale parts is suggested using a micro quill and a magnetic chain structure. The principle of this method is to polish the target surface with the collected magnetic brushes at a micro tool by the non-uniform magnetic field generated around the tool. In a typical magnetic abrasive finishing process magnetic particles and abrasive particles are unbonded each other. But, to finish the three dimensional small parts bonded magnetic abrasive have to be used. Bonded magnetic abrasives are made from direct bonding, and their polishing characteristics are also examined. Alumina, silicon carbide and diamond micro powders are used as abrasives. Base metal matrix is carbonyl iron powder. It is found that bonded magnetic abrasives are superior to unbonded one by experiment. finally, the polished surface roughness is evaluated by atomic force microscope.

Acyl carrier protein is related with fatty acid biosynthesis in which specific enzymes are involved. Especially, acyl carrier protein (ACP) is the key component in the growing of fatty acid chain. ACP is the small, very acidic protein that covalently binds various intermediates of fatty acyl chain. Acylation of ACP is mediated by holo-acyl carrier protein synthase (ACPS), which transfers the 4'PP-moiety of CoA to the 36th residue Ser of apo ACP. Acyl carrier protein P (ACPP) is one of ACPs from Helicobacter plyori. The NMR structure of ACPP consists of four helices, which were reported previously. Here we show how acylation of ACPP can affect the overall structure of ACPP and figured out the contact surface of ACPP to acyl chain attached during expression of ACPP in E. coli. Based on the chemical shift perturbation data, the acylation of ACCP seems to affect the conformation of the long loop connecting helix I and helix II as well as the second short loop connecting helix II and helix III. The significant chemical shift change of Ile 54 upon acylation supports the contact of acyl chain and the second loop.

We examine the effect of U term (U = 3 eV) describing the Coulomb interactions between electrons on the results of electronic band structure calculations carried out for bcc Fe bulk, monolayer, and chain. We investigated the properties of the three Fe structures by using the all-electron total-energy full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. The U term was included in the exchange - correlation functionals constructed on the basis of local density approximation (LDA) and general gradient approximation (GGA). We found that in the case of bcc Fe bulk structure inclusion of the U term leads to the overestimated values of magnetic moment on Fe atom. The values of magnetic moment calculated for Fe in monolayer and chain are in accordance with calculations in which the U term was not included. In general, for each system the calculated values of magnetic moment on Fe sites were larger when the U term was incorporated in the energy functional. In Fe bulk, the value of magnetic moment $2.54{\mu}_B$ for LDA+U larger than $2.25{\mu}_B$ for LDA.

We have studied electronic structures and magnetic properties of one dimensional Ge chain nanoclusters using OpenMX method based on densty functional method. The calculation results show the strong antiferromagnetic interaction between Cr and Ge atoms. The magnetic interaction between Ge and Ge atoms are almost antiferromagnetic behaviors. The magnetic exchange interaction are occurred over the sevaral Ge atom layers. The magnitude of this interaction depends number of Ge atom.

The electronic structure and magnetism of Fe chain along the [110] direction on Ag(001) were investigated by using the all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method within generalized gradient approximation (GGA). The magnetic moment of Fe atom in Fe chain is calculated to be $3.02\;{\mu}_B$, which is slightly larger than that ($2.99\;{\mu}_B$) of the Fe[110] chain on Cu(001). The reduced coordination number for the Fe chain induced the Fe-d band narrowing and exchange-splitting enhancement, which are responsible for the large magnetic moment of the Fe chain. The calculated band width of the Fe-d band and the exchange-splitting are 1.7 eV and 3.2 eV, respectively.

Structural and electronic properties of an alkali metal fulleride, Rb1C60, was studied. In spite of the chain structure with shortdistance between balls along the crystallographic a-direction, the electronic structure calculation study with the X-ray defined crystal structure shows that Rb1C60 is a three-dimensional metal at room temperature. This result is different from the magnetic experiments in which the compound was found to behave as a quasi-one-dimensional metal. Partial Fermi surface nesting is supposed to be the reason for the metal-insulator transition found in Rb1C60 at ∼50 K.

We report the preparation, structure and magnetic properties of a new pillared complex, copper(II) hydroxy-1,4-butanedisulfonate, $Cu_2(OH)_3(O_3SC_4H_8SO_3)_{1/2}$. The titled compound was obtained by anion exchange, using copper hydroxyl nitrate $(Cu_2(OH)_3NO_3)$ as the starting material. According to the XRD data, this compound exhibits a pillared layered structure with organic layers tilted between the copper hydroxide layers with a tilt angle of $21.8^{\circ}$. FTIR spectroscopy confirms total exchange of nitrate by the sulfonate and indicates that the sulfonate functions are linked to the copper(II) ions with each aliphatic chain bridging the adjacent hydroxide layers. According to the dc and ac magnetic measurements, the title compound is a metamagnet consisting of spin-canted antiferromagnetic layers, with a Neel temperature of 11.8 K.

Redox-dependent conformational change of human 8-kDa Dynein light chain (LC8) plays important role in regulating NF-${\kappa}B$ signaling pathway. In this study we characterized the structural states of the oxidized and reduced forms of LC8 by using NMR spectroscopy. The $^1H-^{15}N$ 2D HSQC spectra of oxidized LC8 indicated that no significant change in tertiary structure of LC8 occurred upon oxidation. The chemical shift perturbations of LC8 upon oxidation suggest a redox-dependent quaternary structural change.

Two novel copper(II) complexes, [Cu(dmamhp)$(H_2O)_2(SO_4)]_n$ (1) and [Cu(dmamhp)$(NO_3)_2(H_2O)]{\cdot}H_2O$ (2) [dmamhp = 2-dimethylaminomethyl-3-hydroxypyridine] have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compound 1 displays a double one-dimensional chains structure, in which each chain is constituted with the distorted octahedral copper(II) complex bridged through bidentate sulfate ligands resulting in a coordination polymer. The bifurcated hydrogen bonds and $\pi-\pi$ interactions play important roles in the formation of the double chains structure. On the other hand, compound 2 adopts a distorted square pyramidal geometry around copper(II) ion and exists as a discrete monomer. There are intermolecular bifurcated hydrogen bonds and $\pi-\pi$ stacking interactions between the monomeric units. The magnetic properties revealed that the paramagnetic behaviors are dominantly manifested and there are no intermolecular magnetic interactions in both compound 1 and 2.
