Nuclear lamina strain states revealed by intermolecular force biosensor [PDF]
Nuclear lamins have been considered an important structural element of the nucleus. The nuclear lamina is thought both to shield DNA from excessive mechanical forces and to transmit mechanical forces onto the DNA.

Cooperative Dynamics in Unentangled Polymer Fluids [PDF]
We present a Generalized Langevin Equation for the dynamics of interacting semiflexible polymer chains, undergoing slow cooperative dynamics. The calculated Gaussian intermolecular center-of-mass and monomer potentials, wich enter the GLE, are in ...

Intermolecular contrast in atomic force microscopy images without intermolecular bonds [PDF]
Intermolecular features in atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of organic molecules have been ascribed to intermolecular bonds. A recent theoretical study [P. Hapala et al., Phys. Rev. B 90, 085421 (2014)] showed that these features can also be explained by the flexibility of molecule terminated tips.

Molecular Simulation of Caloric Properties of Fluids Modelled by Force Fields with Intramolecular Contributions: Application to Heat Capacities [PDF]
The calculation of caloric properties such as heat capacity, Joule-Thomson coefficients and the speed of sound by classical force-field-based molecular simulation methodology has received scant attention in the literature, particularly for systems ...

Origin of the intermolecular forces that produce donor–acceptor stacks in π-conjugated charge-transfer complexes [PDF]
The attraction between π-conjugated planar electron donor and acceptor molecules that form many stable charge-transfer (CT) complexes has been explained by quantum chemical CT interactions, although the fundamental origin remains unclear.

Effect of H2O2 and pH on properties of myofibrillar proteins from Yak muscle during thermal gelation process [PDF]
This paper examined the thermal gelation of yak myofibrillar protein (MP) incubated in a Fenton oxidation system at different pH values for 24 h. The effect of protein oxidation on the gel properties at different pH levels was explored by studying the ...
