This project was funded by the American Chemical Society
Petroleum Research Fund Doctoral New Investigator Program
(PRF# 54824-DNI1) and by Duke University. J.M.B. was
supported by the National Institute of General Medical
Sciences (T32GM007105-41). Characterization data were
obtained on instrumentation secured by funding from the
NSF (CHE-0923097, ESI-MS, George Dubay, the Duke Dept.
of Chemistry Instrument Center), or the NSF, the NIH,
HHMI, the North Carolina Biotechnology Center and Duke
(Duke Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Center). EI-MS
data were obtained by M. Walla at the Univ. of South
Carolina Chemistry and Biochemistry Mass Spectrometry
Center. Jacob Timmerman, Prof. S. Malcolmson and Prof. R.
Widenhoefer of Duke University are thanked for their
insights.
