There is a clear explanation and figure showing this in the following reference:
Anton Gorkovskiy, Kent R. Thurber, Robert Tycko, Reed B. Wickner, PNAS 2014, 111 (43) E4615-E4622.
A parallel beta sheet is one where the direction from N- to C-termini on adjacent strands run in a parallel direction (rather than antiparallel). In-register means that each ...

The classic catch-all term is molecular entity, often abbreviated to just entity. There's a Wikipedia page for it, which references the IUPAC Gold Book entry. Quoting from the latter:
Any constitutionally or isotopically distinct atom, molecule, ion, ion pair, radical, radical ion, complex, conformer etc., identifiable as a separately distinguishable ...

Nitrogen is more electronegative than hydrogen hence N will pull electrons towards itself. Hence not a good candidate to donate electrons!
Yet it makes bonds with hydrogen, as do other electronegative elements (think of hydrogen chloride and water). So polar bonds form in all kind of molecules.
lets take the case of Oxygen O=O, here each Oxygen atom has ...

Given your hypothesis that the three pKa's are dependent on one another and that experimentally you do not seem to be able to identify which histidines are protonated and which are not at any given time, it would seem that the simplest model to use is that of a triprotic acid such as citric acid. The triple H-H equation model you used is only appropriate for ...

Since you are asking about vitamins vs. minerals, I assume what you mean by mineral is a "dietary mineral" (as opposed to the more typical meaning of mineral, which is a naturally-occurring inorganic compound). So:
A dietary mineral is an element that is essential for life (e.g., K, Ca, Fe, Se, Cr, P, I, Cl, Mo, etc.), and is required in small quantities. ...

Dynamics can mean many things, and not all proteins undergo extensive conformational changes during their lifetime. Some are fairly rigid in solution.
XRD or NMR data represents an average over the conformations of a protein construct sampled under experimental conditions. A protein construct is a variant of the protein, selected to allow expression and ...
