Density functional theory/time-dependent density functional theory investigations on the color-structure relationship of biopigment molecules

Journal of Chemical Research
The study of molecular derivatives of biological dyes is of great importance for the green transformation of the printing, dyeing, and textile industries. In this study, B3LYP density functional methods are used to optimize the geometric configuration of

Structural and Electronic Characterization of m-Fluoroaniline and m-Iodoaniline: A Density Functional Theory Study [PDF]

, 2023
This study aimed to investigate the electronic and structural characteristics of m-fluoroaniline (MFA) and m-iodoaniline (MIA). Density functional theory (DFT) and CAM-B3LYP/LanL2DZ methods were employed to determine various properties such as the ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Strong interaction and thermal effects for finite-temperature density functional theory

, 2019
The strictly correlated electron approach to density functional theory, first proposed by Seidl and coworkers [1-4], offers a unique perspective on finite-temperature density functional theory and one of its application areas, simulations in the warm ...

Treatment of Magnetic Fields in Density-Functional Theory

, 2018
Magnetic properties are an important application area in quantum chemistry. However, for the most widely used method in electronic structure calculations, density-functional theory, it is still not understood how to rigorously include the magnetic field ...

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Perspective on density functional theory

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2012
Density functional theory (DFT) is an incredible success story. The low computational cost, combined with useful (but not yet chemical) accuracy, has made DFT a standard technique in most branches of chemistry and materials science. Electronic structure problems in a dazzling variety of fields are currently being tackled.
