Negative differential electrical resistance of a rotational organic nanomotor

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2015
A robust, nanoelectromechanical switch is proposed based upon an asymmetric pendant moiety anchored to an organic backbone between two C60 fullerenes, which in turn are connected to gold electrodes.

Reversible molecular motional switch based on circular photoactive protein oligomers exhibits unexpected photo-induced contraction

open access: yesCell Reports Physical Science, 2021
Summary: Molecular switches alterable between two stable states by environmental stimuli, such as light and temperature, offer the potential for controlling biological functions. Here, we report a circular photoswitchable protein complex made of multiple

Electronic conduction in a three-terminal molecular transistor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The electronic conduction of a novel, three-terminal molecular architecture, analogous to a heterojunction bipolar transistor is studied. In this architecture, two diode arms consisting of donor-acceptor molecular wires fuse through a ring, while a gate ...

LARP1 functions as a molecular switch for mTORC1-mediated translation of an essential class of mRNAs

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The RNA binding protein, LARP1, has been proposed to function downstream of mTORC1 to regulate the translation of 5’TOP mRNAs such as those encoding ribosome proteins (RP).

Evolution of a dynamic molecular switch

open access: yesIUBMB Life - A Journal of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2019
Eukaryotic protein kinases (EPKs) regulate almost every biological process and have evolved to be dynamic molecular switches; this is in stark contrast to metabolic enzymes, which have evolved to be efficient catalysts.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Staphylococcus aureus clumping factor A is a force-sensitive molecular switch that activates bacterial adhesion

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance The Staphylococcus aureus surface protein clumping factor A (ClfA) binds to the blood plasma protein fibrinogen (Fg) via molecular interactions that are poorly understood.

C5-Azobenzene-substituted 2'-Deoxyuridine-containing Oligodeoxynucleotides for Photo-Switching Hybridization

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
A new photoisomeric nucleoside dUAz bearing an azobenzene group at the C5-position of 2'-deoxyuridine was designed and synthesized. Photoisomerization of dUAz in oligodeoxynucleotides can be achieved rapidly and selectively with 365 nm (forward) and 450

Tuning the tunnel coupling of quantum dot molecules with longitudinal magnetic fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We show that the energy splitting between the bonding and antibonding molecular states of holes in vertically stacked quantum dots can be tuned using longitudinal magnetic fields.
