Mosquito odorant receptor for DEET and methyl jasmonate.

Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 111(46) , 16592-7, (2014)

Insect repellents are important prophylactic tools for travelers and populations living in endemic areas of malaria, dengue, encephalitis, and other vector-borne diseases. DEET (N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide) is a 6-decade-old synthetic repellent, which is st...

Ester carbonyl vibration as a sensitive probe of protein local electric field.

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 53(24) , 6080-4, (2014)

The ability to quantify the local electrostatic environment of proteins and protein/peptide assemblies is key to gaining a microscopic understanding of many biological interactions and processes. Herein, we show that the ester carbonyl stretching vibration of...
