Computational analysis of multivalency in lectins: structures of garlic lectin-oligosaccharide complexes and their aggregates

open access: yes, 2003
Multivalency in lectins is a phenomenon that has been discussed at considerable length. The structural basis for the role of multivalency in garlic lectin has been investigated here through computational studies.

Hetero-Multivalency of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Lectin LecA Binding to Model Membranes

open access: yes, 2018
A single glycan-lectin interaction is often weak and semi-specific. Multiple binding domains in a single lectin can bind with multiple glycan molecules simultaneously, making it difficult for the classic “lock-and-key” model to explain these interactions.

Reversible Calcium Alloying on Bulk and Indium (Sub)‐Micro Negative Electrodes for Calcium‐Based Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Description: Indium metal serves as a reversible calcium‐alloying negative electrode. By transitioning from planar electrodes to powders and (sub‐)micron indium particles, the specific surface area is increased, improving the areal capacity density and cycling stability for calcium‐based batteries.

Bio‐Inspired Multifunctional Superhydrophilic Coatings With Remarkably Fast Self‐Healing Abilities

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We developed bio‐inspired multifunctional hydrogel‐based coatings that exhibit extremely fast/repeatable self‐healing abilities, long‐lasting anti‐fogging performance, superhydrophilicity in air, and underwater superoleophobicity. By doping multivalent metal‐ions into the hydrogel networks, which promoted hydrogen bonding formation and enhanced the ...

Mechanical stability of bivalent transition metal complexes analyzed by single-molecule force spectroscopy

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2015
Multivalent biomolecular interactions allow for a balanced interplay of mechanical stability and malleability, and nature makes widely use of it. For instance, systems of similar thermal stability may have very different rupture forces.

Molecular Bridges for 2D Nanomaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular cross‐linking provides a versatile strategy to engineer interfaces in 2D materials. By tuning the linker backbone, binding mode, and interflake spacing, molecular bridges can regulate charge transport, mechanical integrity, chemical functionality, and processing.

Impact of Dendrimer Terminal Group Chemistry on Blockage of the Anthrax Toxin Channel: A Single Molecule Study

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Nearly all the cationic molecules tested so far have been shown to reversibly block K+ current through the cation-selective PA63 channels of anthrax toxin in a wide nM–mM range of effective concentrations.
