	Biomimetic nanotechnology - The Industrial Physicist
		A number of groups, including Uwe Sleytr and colleagues at the Center for Nanobiotechnology, University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences, in Vienna, Austria, seek to use bacterial S-layers as superstructures for artificial arrays.
		In the first step, DNA fragments with random sequences coding for many different proteins are incorporated into the DNA of bacteriophages in such a way that one of the proteins forms on the exterior of a virus.
		The idea— developed by Nadrian C. Seeman, professor of chemistry at New York University, among others—is to unravel the two intertwined helixes at the end of DNA molecules and then stick them together with the matched ends of two other DNA molecules.

		For the analysis of wood’s numerous properties, individual wood fibres had been isolated by means of a chemical procedure until now - although researchers have suspected for a long time that this chemical procedure leads to changes in wood so that scientific results might be doubtful.
		In this way, we obtain much new information about the structure and properties of wood." Additionally, the scientists were able to show that the mechanical isolation method is also capable of isolating single fibres of other natural materials such as hemp or flax in a much better way than previously possible.
		As soon as the stress is released, however, the bonds lock-in at the new position and continue to maintain the original stiffness of the material - a property that had so far been associated with metallic materials rather than with wood.

		This surprising discovery is the result of a large-scale project by the Austrian Science Fund FWF in which the bear population in Scandinavia was closely observed in the wild.
		The data, that goes back for over 20 years, is published today and is contributing to a better understanding of this species which is once again becoming native to Europe.
		A team from the Department for Integrative Biology at the University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences in Vienna has now discovered an elaborate strategy used by female brown bears to counter this danger – numerous copulations with as many partners as possible.

	Abstract
		Department of Biotechnology, University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences, Vienna, Austria
		Sequence alignment of the peptides showed similarity with several domains in the FVIII molecule demonstrating the mimotope nature of the selected peptides.
		For binding of inhibitors the existence of aromatic residues, positively charged amino acids (2 lysine residues in peptide 238/S1 and 1 lysine in peptide 122/S1) and the negatively charged amino acid aspartic acid at the C-terminus were crucial.
