1
00:00:03,909 --> 00:00:02,070
thank you committee for the opportunity

2
00:00:05,190 --> 00:00:03,919
my name is rose i'm a secondary mpp

3
00:00:07,749 --> 00:00:05,200
fellow at parkinson university in new

4
00:00:10,629 --> 00:00:07,759
jersey usa so the main hypothesis of my

5
00:00:12,230 --> 00:00:10,639
project is a short 8 to 15 amino acid

6
00:00:14,070 --> 00:00:12,240
long peptide because the spontaneously

7
00:00:15,669 --> 00:00:14,080
formed on early earth

8
00:00:18,390 --> 00:00:15,679
that could have used the minerals in its

9
00:00:19,590 --> 00:00:18,400
surrounding to form a a short

10
00:00:22,870 --> 00:00:19,600
electron transferring or catalytic

11
00:00:24,550 --> 00:00:22,880
protein as shown in um figure one a

12
00:00:26,070 --> 00:00:24,560
great example of a catalytic protein

13
00:00:27,670 --> 00:00:26,080
includes hydrothen that's shown in

14
00:00:29,269 --> 00:00:27,680
figure two so what we wanted to do was

15
00:00:32,389 --> 00:00:29,279
really mimic the active site shown in

16
00:00:34,709 --> 00:00:32,399
the red circle and model a short peptide

17
00:00:37,190 --> 00:00:34,719
that could coordinate these metals and

18
00:00:39,510 --> 00:00:37,200
function as an s hydroxides right

19
00:00:40,389 --> 00:00:39,520
so uh and then what we're trying to do

20
00:00:42,069 --> 00:00:40,399
right now is the structural

21
00:00:44,229 --> 00:00:42,079
characterization uh figure three is

22
00:00:45,750 --> 00:00:44,239
showing if it is showing distinct two

23
00:00:48,069 --> 00:00:45,760
distinct species

24
00:00:50,549 --> 00:00:48,079
figure four epr of both reduce and

25
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:50,559
oxidize form of our enzyme and figure

26
00:00:55,270 --> 00:00:53,440
five is a gas chromatography which shows

27
00:00:56,389 --> 00:00:55,280
the hydrogen production as compared to

28
00:00:57,750 --> 00:00:56,399
the control

29
00:01:00,150 --> 00:00:57,760
with that thank you and please don't
