High-Throughput Protein-Protein Interaction Screening Using Cell-Free Protein Synthesis

Description:

Protein-protein interactions are ubiquitous in living systems, and mediate important cellular processes from decision making to immunity against pathogens. Furthermore, protein-protein interactions are key to many protein therapeutics, pathogen diagnostics, and numerous synthetic biology applications. As a result, there has been significant effort to develop methods to express potential protein...

Adsorption in Metal-Organic Frameworks for Energy Applications

Description:

Metal-organic frameworks are crystalline, nanoporous materials formed by metal nodes connected by organic ligands. MOFs represent an exciting approach to materials design where a material with desired properties can be made by choosing the compatible nodes, linkers and topologies independently. MOFs are highly porous and have high surface areas...

Engineering Cell-free Metabolism for Pathway Prototyping and Biomanufacturing

Description:

Pollution-intensive industrial manufacturing processes threaten the health of ecosystems and societies through toxic waste streams and energy intensive processes that lead to greenhouse gas emissions. Biological systems present more sustainable routes to many useful industrial chemicals by using enzymes at low temperatures, but the time and effort required to optimized...

Engineering the 1,2-Propanediol Utilization Bacterial Microcompartment to Develop a Tunable Nanobioreactor

Description:

While metabolic engineering can enable the sustainable bioproduction of new materials, efforts are often impeded by pathway bottlenecks. To mitigate the effects of toxic or reactive intermediates and resource competition resulting from heterologous pathway incorporation, bacterial microcompartments (MCPs) have recently been considered for engineered compartmentalization in bacterial host organisms. MCPs...

Light Hydrocarbon Adsorption and Oligomerization in Acidic and Ni-Acid Zeolites

Description:

From energy to materials, hydrocarbon chemistry drives our world. Stemming from the petrochemical industry, our understanding of CxHy combinations has allowed society to flourish, and hydrocarbons will likely remain valuable species in our future even as we transition to greener carbon and hydrogen sources. Currently, one of the most efficient...

Synthetic and Analytical Techniques to Break Symmetry and Control Structure in Crystals Engineered with DNA

Description:

When attached to another species (e.g. a nanoparticle), the sequence specificity of DNA can be repurposed to program interactions between such entities and to direct their formation into ordered structures. The research presented in this thesis aims to push the boundaries of structures that can be made via this approach....

Unconventional Approaches to High Throughput Nanolithography and 3D Printing

Description:

This thesis centers around the development and application of novel high throughput lithography tools. These advances help: 1) establish the field of nanocombinatorics, where massive libraries (termed megalibraries) of materials can be prepared in a positionally encoded manner and then screened for functional activity, and 2) advance stereolithographic 3D printing...

Rational Design of Spherical Nucleic Acids as Therapeutic Constructs

Description:

Nucleic acids not only are the building blocks of life but also a class of attractive macromolecular therapeutics. However, the delivery of therapeutic oligonucleotides into cells has been a major challenge due to their large size and highly negatively charged backbone. Spherical nucleic acids (SNAs) are a class of emerging...

Fundamental Studies in the Design of Zirconium Metal–Organic Frameworks as Catalysts and Supports for the Conversion of Hydrocarbons and Biomass Feedstocks

Description:

One of the greatest challenges in heterogeneous catalysis is the rational design and development of new catalytic systems, due to synthetic limitations in the design of solid catalysts and inhomogeneity of chemical sites at solid surfaces. This obfuscates understanding of catalyst behavior and slows improvements of processes. One approach to...

Engineering Scalable Microenvironments to Enhance Ex Vivo Megakaryocyte Production and Platelet Release

Description:

Currently, platelet transfusions, possessing profound clinical importance in the clotting of blood and healing of wounds, are entirely derived from human volunteer donors. This approach is limited by a 5-day shelf life, the potential risk of contamination, and differences in donor/recipient immunology. In vivo, platelets are formed when bone marrow...
