Dual Modulation of Single Molecule Conductance via Tuning Side Chains and Electric Field with Conjugated Molecules Entailing Intramolecular O•••S Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
Herein, single‐molecule conductance studies of TBT1‐TBT6 which entails 1,4‐dithienylbenzene as the backbone and SMe groups as the anchoring units, with the scanning tunneling microscope break junction (STM‐BJ) technique, are reported.

Noncovalent Bonds through Sigma and Pi-Hole Located on the Same Molecule. Guiding Principles and Comparisons

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Over the last years, scientific interest in noncovalent interactions based on the presence of electron-depleted regions called σ-holes or π-holes has markedly accelerated.

Heterotropic regulation and negative homotropic cooperativity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We identified a structural module common to some proteins that couple negative cooperativity with heterotropic regulation, two features that rarely coexist. These proteins are ring‐like and present an ordered asymmetry whereby noncontacting subunits are symmetric, and their tertiary structure differs from that of contacting subunits.

Association Complexes of Calix[6]arenes with Amino Acids Explained by Energy-Partitioning Methods

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Intermolecular complexes with calixarenes are intriguing because of multiple possibilities of noncovalent binding for both polar and nonpolar molecules, including docking in the calixarene cavity.

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Thermoring basis for the proton-driven heat activation of a cation-selective channel in myriapods

open access: yesScientific Reports
Thermo-gated ion channels undergo significant time-dependent structural rearrangements for activation. Although the tertiary noncovalent interaction networks can be constrained as thermorings to explain specific temperature thresholds and sensitivity ...

Fabrication Routes for Ionic Conducting Fiber Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic conducting fiber strain sensors (ICFSs) offer compliant, textile‐integrable sensing. Thus far, the commercialization of ICFSs has been constrained by fiber fabrication routes. This review provides a fabrication‐centric analysis of ICFSs correlating processing strategies with material properties and scalability.
