I gained knowledge, I learned how to build knowledge and I exchanged knowledge with various people during this journey. Without a doubt, the person that helped me the most during the process was my advisor Dr Gregory Dudley. I would like to thank Dr Dudley for all his support. In the beginning, I had no idea of how much I would learn from him, not only in the scientific level, but also in the personal level. I am grateful because I had the opportunity to work with a role model like Dr Dudley. There are countless other people that help me during the last five years. Without listing their names, I just want to thank everyone for their contributions and friendship: my friends from the Dudley lab, my friends from the other labs, my professors, my students, the staff from the Chemistry and Biochemistry Department, the janitors, my friends from UFMG in Brazil, Fulbright and Capes, my committee members, and my family… iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES .......................................................................................................................... v LIST OF FIGURES ....................................................................................................................... vi LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS ......................................................................................................... x ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................. xiv CHAPTER 1 -
