Diversity against adversity: How adaptive immunity evolves potent antibodies [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 How does immune system evolve functional proteins - potent antibodies - in such a short time? We address this question using a microscopic, protein-level, sequence-based model of humoral immune response with explicitly defined interactions between Immunoglobulins, host and pathogen proteins.

Shortwave Infrared Light Detection and Ranging Using Silver Telluride Quantum Dots
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Post‐synthesis surface engineering and doping control significantly improve the performance of Ag₂Te CQD photodiodes, achieving a low dark current of 450 nA cm−2 at −0.5 V, an LDR exceeding 150 dB, and a rapid response speed of ≈25 ns. A proof‐of‐concept LiDAR demonstration in the SWIR using a nanosecond diode laser, achieves decimetre‐level resolution

Crowding-Regulated Binding of Divalent Biomolecules [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 130, 258401 (2023)Macromolecular crowding affects biophysical processes as diverse as diffusion, gene expression, cell growth, and senescence. Yet, there is no comprehensive understanding of how crowding affects reactions, particularly multivalent binding. Herein, we use scaled particle theory and develop a molecular simulation method to investigate the binding of ...

Progress in Flexible Perovskite Solar Cells: Paving the Way for Scalable Manufacturing
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are well positioned for a successful market uptake. This is due to an unprecedented improvement of their efficiency and stability since the first report in 2009. In this review paper, the building blocks for the scalable manufacturing and future commercialization of flexible PSCs and their pathway to impact will be ...

A Low-temperature 1H NMR Study of H2O and D2O Associated Competitively with Immunoglobulin G in Solution [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 An approach has been proposed to characterize the competitive association of D2O and to study the heterogeneity of hydration water adsorbed by the protein, immunoglobulin G, using methodology for determining of non-freezing water in mixed H2O-D2O protein solutions by low-temperature 1H NMR technique. Direct data on the numbers of deuteriums adsorbed by

Attractors in residual interactions explain the differentially-conserved stability of Immunoglobulins [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Proteins belonging to immunoglobulin superfamily(IgSF) show remarkably conserved nature both in their folded structure and in their folding process, but they neither originate from very similar sequences nor demonstrate functional conservation. Treating proteins as fractal objects, without studying spatial conservation in positioning of particular ...

Integrable su(2)-invariant spin chains and the Haldane conjecture [PDF]
arXiv, 1994 We perform a systematic exact algebraic search for integrable spin-S chains which are isotropic in spin space, i.e. are su(2)-invariant. The families of spin chains found for S < 14 support recent arguments in favour of the complete classification of all such integrable chains.
