The N-end rule degradation pathway : substrate recognition and staged delivery to the CIpAP protease by the CIpS adaptor protein
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Regulated protein degradation is crucial in the regulation of many physiological processes as well as in protein quality control. In all organisms, ranging from bacteria to mammals, ATP-dependent proteases carry out regulated ... -
(N-heterocyclic-carbene)Copper(I)-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond formation using carbon dioxide
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This thesis presents work towards the development of a new catalytic C-C bond forming reaction. Alkynes and olefins insert into [(IPr)CuH]2 (IPr = N,N-bis-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-1,3-imidazol-2-ylidene) to give copper vinyl ... -
An N-version electronic voting system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)The ballot battles of the 2000 US Presidential Election clearly indicate that existing voting technologies and processes are not sufficient to guarantee that every eligible voter is granted their right to vote and implicitly ... -

Nahr Beirut : projections on an infrastructural landscape
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)A century ago, Nahr Beirut was a riparian river which flowed from a mountainous valley to a coastal plain, the Beirut Peninsula, before entering the Julian Beinart Mediterranean Sea. After being for centuries the distant ... -
Nail - a practical tool for parsing and generating data formats
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Nail is a tool that greatly reduces the programmer effort for safely parsing and generating data formats defined by a grammar. Nail introduces several key ideas to achieve its goal. First, Nail uses a protocol grammar to ... -

Nano-cellular microstructure evolution in ion-induced chemical vapor deposition (II-CVD) of copper
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)A systematic investigation of the microstructure produced in ion-induced chemical vapor deposition (11-CVD) of copper from copper(I)hexafluoroacetylacetonatevinyltrimethylsilane (Cu(I)hfacVTMS) gas precursor is reported. ... -
Nano-ChemoMechanical assessment of Rice Husk Ash cement by wavelength dispersive spectroscopy and nanoindentation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Cement global production stands at 3 Giga tons making concrete the most consumed structural mateial worldwide. This massively produced material comes with a heavy environmental footprint rendering the cement industry ... -
Nano-contact printing of DNA monolayers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Technology today is directed towards building smaller devices. To accommodate this development, printing methods are needed. Some printing methods that are used include lithography, micro-contact printing, and inkjet ... -
Nano-engineering the boiling surface for optimal heat transfer rate and critical heat flux
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The effects on pool boiling characteristics such as critical heat flux and the heat transfer coefficient of different surface characteristics such as surface wettability, roughness, morphology, and porosity are not well ... -
