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

open access: yesJournal 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

Dynamic density functional theory of multicomponent cellular membranes

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2023
We present a continuum model trained on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for cellular membranes composed of an arbitrary number of lipid types. The model is constructed within the formalism of dynamic density functional theory and can be extended to ...

The pyruvate generator is a common phenomenon in mitochondria from different rat and mouse brain regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The pyruvate generator, which causes activation of respiration by extra‐mitochondrial Ca2+, is also present and functional in rat brainstem mitochondria, as it is in other brain regions. This finding is confirmed by experiments with a fully reconstituted malate–aspartate shuttle (MAS).

Introducing a new correlation functional in density functional theory

open access: yesScientific Reports
The correlation functional holds significance in density functional theory as it addresses electron–electron interactions beyond the mean-field approximation, enhancing the accuracy of total energy calculations, electronic excitations, and the prediction

A Study of Ultra-Low Friction in Two-Dimensional Materials using Density-Functional Theory

open access: yes, 2021
Overcoming friction in any mechanical system is a universal problem in many aspects of engineering and nanotechnology. Being a dissipative force, friction reduces the efficiency of the system while adding unwanted heat and introducing wear between the ...

An atomic scale mechanism for the antimalarial action of chloroquine from density functional theory calculations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The X-ray crystal structures of complexes between the antimalarial drugs quinine, quinidine and halofantrine and their biological target, iron(III) ferriprotoporphyrin IX (FePPIX), have been reported in the literature (de Villiers et al. in ACS Chem Biol

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Interfacial Microstructure of Neutral and Charged Polymer Brushes: A Density Functional Theory Study

open access: yes, 2022
Polymer density functional theory (PDFT) is a computationally efficient and popular statistical mechanics theory of complex fluids for capturing the interfacial microstructure of grafted polymer brushes (PBs).

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Density-functional theory formulated in terms of functional integrals

open access: yesAIP Advances
In a previous study, the author formulated the density functional theory in terms of functional integrals. It was valid at zero and finite temperature.
