An Integrated Covalent Drug Design Workflow using Site-Identification by Ligand Competitive Saturation [PDF]
Covalent drug design is an important component in drug discovery. Traditional drugs interact with their target in a reversible equilibrium while irreversible covalent drugs increase the drug-target interaction duration by forming a covalent bond with ...

Affinity-induced covalent protein-protein ligation via the SpyCatcher-SpyTag interaction
Production of economically viable bioethanol is potentially an environmentally and financially worthwhile endeavor. One major source for fermentable sugars is lignocellulose. However, lignocellulosic biomass is difficult to degrade, owing to its inherent

Non-Covalent Interaction within Catalytic Anionic Donor and Neutral Acceptor to Promote Pd-Catalyzed Distal Site- selective Functionalization of Amines [PDF]
C‒H activation of simple molecules to provide corresponding functionalized analogues has gained immense prominence. While this is widely applicable to a range of organic motifs, regioselectivity and most importantly site-selectivity of distal C‒H bonds ...

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.

Quantification of the interactions in halide-anion-based imidazolium ionic liquids
Non-covalent interactions between constituent ions of ionic liquids (ILs) define their distinctive physicochemical properties and are critical for understanding their micro and bulk structures as well as designing new task-specific ILs.

Key interaction networks: Identifying evolutionarily conserved non-covalent interaction networks across protein families. [PDF]
Protein structure (and thus function) is dictated by non-covalent interaction networks. These can be highly evolutionarily conserved across protein families, the members of which can diverge in sequence and evolutionary history.

Tetrel Interactions from an Interacting Quantum Atoms Perspective
Tetrel bonds, the purportedly non-covalent interaction between a molecule that contains an atom of group 14 and an anion or (more generally) an atom or molecule with lone electron pairs, are under intense scrutiny. In this work, we perform an interacting
