Covalent bonds form the skeleton of molecules while non-covalent interactions allow them to modulate their shape and some of their characteristics. The lability of the non-covalent interactions due to subtle changes in the environment is of primary importance in biochemical processes. Thus, for instance, the interaction of a hormone with a receptor can

Non-Covalent Interactions in Polymers
Non-covalent interactions are one of the key topics in modern chemical science. These inter- and intramolecular weak interactions (e.g., hydrogen, halogen, and chalcogen bonds, stacking interactions and metallophilic contacts) have a significant effect on the properties of polymers.

Small Molecules, Non-Covalent Interactions, and Confinement [PDF]
This review gives an overview of current trends in the investigation of small guest molecules, confined in neat and functionalized mesoporous silica materials by a combination of solid-state NMR and relaxometry with other physico-chemical techniques.

Investigation of atomic level patterns in protein--small ligand interactions. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Shape complementarity and non-covalent interactions are believed to drive protein-ligand interaction. To date protein-protein, protein-DNA, and protein-RNA interactions were systematically investigated, which is in contrast to interactions ...

Identification of Protein–Phenol Adducts in Meat Proteins: A Molecular Probe Technology Study
Plant polyphenols with a catechol structure can form covalent adducts with meat proteins, which affects the quality and processing of meat products. However, there is a lack of fast and effective methods of characterizing these adducts and understanding ...

Electronic structure, phase stability and chemical bonding in Th$_2$Al and Th$_2$AlH$_4$ [PDF]
We present the results of theoretical investigation on the electronic structure, bonding nature and ground state properties of Th$_2$Al and Th$_2$AlH$_4$ using generalized-gradient-corrected first-principles full-potential density-functional calculations.

Multi-site H-bridge breathers in a DNA--shaped double strand [PDF]
We investigate the formation process of nonlinear vibrational modes representing broad H-bridge multi--site breathers in a DNA--shaped double strand. Within a network model of the double helix we take individual motions of the bases within the base ...

Non-conventional interactions of N3 inhibitor with the main protease of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2
The extensive spread of COVID-19 in every continent shows that SARS-CoV-2 virus has a higher transmission rate than SARS-CoV virus which emerged in 2002. This results in a global pandemic that is difficult to control.
