New structural and functional contexts of the Dx[DN]xDG linear motif: insights into evolution of calcium-binding proteins.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Binding of calcium ions (Ca²⁺) to proteins can have profound effects on their structure and function. Common roles of calcium binding include structure stabilization and regulation of activity.

The Ca(2+) influence on calmodulin unfolding pathway: a steered molecular dynamics simulation study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The force-induced unfolding of calmodulin (CaM) was investigated at atomistic details with steered molecular dynamics. The two isolated CaM domains as well as the full-length CaM were simulated in N-C-terminal pulling scheme, and the isolated N-lobe of ...

MOFs and COFs in Electronics: Bridging the Gap between Intrinsic Properties and Measured Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold promise for advanced electronics. However, discrepancies in reported electrical conductivities highlight the importance of measurement methodologies. This review explores intrinsic charge transport mechanisms and extrinsic factors influencing performance, and critically ...

S100 Proteins—Intracellular and Extracellular Function in Norm and Pathology

open access: yesBiomolecules
The S100 proteins are small, ubiquitous, mostly homodimeric proteins containing two EF-hand structures, that is, helix-loop-helix motifs specialized in high-affinity calcium-binding (~10−6 M) [...]

Universal Electronic‐Structure Relationship Governing Intrinsic Magnetic Properties in Permanent Magnets

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Permanent magnets derive their extraordinary strength from deep, universal electronic‐structure principles that control magnetization, anisotropy, and intrinsic performance. This work uncovers those governing rules, examines modern modeling and AI‐driven discovery methods, identifies critical bottlenecks, and reveals electronic fingerprints shared ...

Evolution of the ferric reductase domain (FRD) superfamily: modularity, functional diversification, and signature motifs.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
A heme-containing transmembrane ferric reductase domain (FRD) is found in bacterial and eukaryotic protein families, including ferric reductases (FRE), and NADPH oxidases (NOX). The aim of this study was to understand the phylogeny of the FRD superfamily.
