Global Energy Matching Method for Atomistic-to-Continuum Modeling of Self-Assembling Biopolymer Aggregates [PDF]
This paper studies mathematical models of biopolymer supramolecular aggregates that are formed by the self-assembly of single monomers. We develop a new multiscale numerical approach to model the structural properties of such aggregates. This theoretical

Identification of hepta-histidine as a candidate drug for Huntington's disease by in silico-in vitro- in vivo-integrated screens of chemical libraries. [PDF]
We identified drug seeds for treating Huntington's disease (HD) by combining in vitro single molecule fluorescence spectroscopy, in silico molecular docking simulations, and in vivo fly and mouse HD models to screen for inhibitors of abnormal ...

Short peptide sequences: current knowledge and future prospects [PDF]
According to modern knowledge, the biological effect of many peptides is mediated by their short-chain fragments – oligopeptides – ranging from 2 to 20 amino acids and the activity of short peptides often significantly exceeds the activity of the peptide

Crystallization of the oligopeptide-binding protein AppA from Bacillus subtilis [PDF]
AppA is the membrane-anchored extracellular receptor component of an ABC transporter responsible for the uptake of oligopeptides into Bacillus subtilis.

Achiral dye/surfactant heteroaggregates for chiral sensing of phosphocholines [PDF]
An investigation, based on absorption and circular dichroism spectroscopy, was carried out on assemblies formed in water upon the interaction of heteroaggregates, composed of dyes (Congo Red or Evans Blue) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), with ...
