Analysis and Design of a Compact Leaky-Wave Antenna for Wide-Band Broadside Radiation.

abstract：:Very little is known about how fimbriae of Bacteroidetes bacteria are assembled. To shed more light on this process, we solved the crystal structures of the shaft protein Mfa1, the regulatory protein Mfa2, and the tip protein Mfa3 from the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis. Together these build up part of ...
