Macromolecular dynamics in crowded environments

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2010
The structural and dynamical properties of macromolecules in confining or crowded environments are different from those in simple bulk liquids. In this paper, both the conformational and diffusional dynamics of globular polymers are studied in solutions containing fixed spherical obstacles.

Macromolecular Crowding and Protein Stability

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2012
An understanding of cellular chemistry requires knowledge of how crowded environments affect proteins. The influence of crowding on protein stability arises from two phenomena, hard-core repulsions and soft (i.e., chemical) interactions. Most efforts to understand crowding effects on protein stability, however, focus on hard-core repulsions, which are ...

Macromolecular Crowding and Its Consequences

1999
Incompatible pairs of polymers separate into two phases in aqueous solution above a few percentage points total concentration. Protein pairs can also produce phase separation, but at somewhat higher concentrations. In this chapter, we explore the effect of high background concentrations of macromolecules on phase separation of pairs of species which ...
