Solvation of Complex Surfaces via Molecular Density Functional Theory [PDF]
We show that classical molecular density functional theory, here in the homogeneous reference fluid approximation in which the functional is inferred from the properties of the bulk solvent, is a powerful new tool to study, at a fully molecular level, the solvation of complex surfaces and interfaces by polar solvents.

Modeling Molecular and Ionic Absolute Solvation Free Energies With Quasichemical Theory Bounds [PDF]
A recently developed statistical mechanical quasichemical theory (QCT) has led to significant insights into solvation phenomena for both hydrophilic and hydrophobic solutes. The QCT exactly partitions solvation free energies into three components: (1) Inner-shell chemical, (2) outer-shell packing, and (3) outer-shell long-ranged contributions.

Solvation Effects on the Thermal Helix Inversion of Molecular Motors from QM/MM Calculations
Molecular motors convert light and thermal energies into mechanical work, offering good opportunities to design novel molecular devices. Among them, molecular motors alternate a photoisomerization and a thermal helix inversion to achieve unidirectional ...

Structural Stability Analysis of Proteins Using End-to-End Distance: A 3D-RISM Approach
The stability of a protein is determined from its properties and surrounding solvent. In our previous study, the total energy as a sum of the conformational and solvation free energies was demonstrated to be an appropriate energy function for evaluating ...
