Insights into the function of silver as an oxidation catalyst by ab initio, atomistic thermodynamics [PDF]
Phys. Rev. B 68, 165412 (2003), 2003 To help understand the high activity of silver as an oxidation catalyst, e.g., for the oxidation of ethylene to epoxide and the dehydrogenation of methanol to formaldehyde, the interaction and stability of oxygen species at the Ag(111) surface has been studied for a wide range of coverages.

Mechanistic investigation on oxygen transfer with the manganese-salen complex [PDF]
, 2015 The best-known application of salen complexes is the use of a chiral ligand loaded with manganese to form the Jacobsen complex. This organometallic catalyst is used in the epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins and can achieve very high selectivities ...

The stability of 3 transmembrane and 4 transmembrane human vitamin K epoxide reductase models [PDF]
, 2016 3 transmembrane and 4 transmembrane helices models are suggested for the human vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKOR). In this study, we investigate the stability of the human 3 transmembrane/4 transmembrane VKOR models employing a coarse-grained normal mode analysis and molecular dynamics simulation.

Epoxides and Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase in Cardiovascular Physiology [PDF]
Physiological Reviews, 2012 Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are arachidonic acid metabolites that importantly contribute to vascular and cardiac physiology. The contribution of EETs to vascular and cardiac function is further influenced by soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) that degrades EETs to diols. Vascular actions of EETs include dilation and angiogenesis.
