Journal Article
Williamson, B., Di Muro, A., Horwell, C., Spieler, O., & Llewellin, E. (2010). Injection of vesicular magma into an andesitic dome at the effusive–explosive transition. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 295(1-2), 83-90. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2010.03.027

A single, vesicular pyroclast collected from a major (11 × 106 m3) dome collapse eruption of the Soufrière Hills volcano, Montserrat (21st September 1997) was found to contain textural and Raman evidence for multiple decompression events and magma in...

The mechanism of amyloid spherulite formation by bovine insulin (2005)
Journal Article
Krebs, M., Bromley, E., Rogers, S., & Donald, A. (2005). The mechanism of amyloid spherulite formation by bovine insulin. Biophysical Journal, 88(3), 2013-2021

The formation of amyloid-containing spherulite-like structures has been observed in some instances of amyloid diseases, as well as in amyloid fibril-containing solutions in vitro. In this article we describe the structure and kinetics of bovine insul... Read More about The mechanism of amyloid spherulite formation by bovine insulin.

Optical microscopy of growing insulin amyloid spherulites on surfaces in vitro (2006)
Journal Article
Rogers, S., Krebs, M., Bromley, E., van der Linden, E., & Donald, A. (2006). Optical microscopy of growing insulin amyloid spherulites on surfaces in vitro. Biophysical Journal, 90(3), 1043-1054

Amyloid fibrils are often found arranged into large ordered spheroid structures, known as spherulites, occurring in vivo and in vitro. The spherulites are predominantly composed of radially ordered amyloid fibrils, which self-assemble from protein in...

Electrostatic control of thickness and stiffness in a designed protein fiber (2008)
Journal Article
Papapostolou, D., Bromley, E., Bano, C., & Woolfson, D. (2008). Electrostatic control of thickness and stiffness in a designed protein fiber. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 130(15), 5124-5130. https://doi.org/10.1021/ja0778444

Attempts to design peptide-based fibers from first principles test our understanding of protein folding and assembly, and potentially provide routes to new biomaterials. Several groups have presented such designs based on a-helical and beta-strand bu... Read More about Electrostatic control of thickness and stiffness in a designed protein fiber.

The Tumbleweed: towards a synthetic protein motor (2009)
Journal Article
Bromley, E., Kuwada, N., Zuckermann, M., Donadini, R., Samii, L., Blab, G., …Linke, H. (2009). The Tumbleweed: towards a synthetic protein motor. HFSP journal, 3(3), 204-212

Biomolecular motors have inspired the design and construction of artificial nanoscale motors and machines based on nucleic acids, small molecules, and inorganic nanostructures. However, the high degree of sophistication and efficiency of biomolecular... Read More about The Tumbleweed: towards a synthetic protein motor.
