Preferred Configurations of Peptide–Peptide Interactions

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2013
The natural and fundamental proclivities of interaction between a pair of peptide units are examined using high-level ab initio calculations. The NH···O H-bonded structure is found to be the most stable configuration of the N-methylacetamide (NMA) model dimer, but only slightly more so than a stacked arrangement.

Role of biological rhythms in the performance of physical activity

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2017
Most organisms display various periodicities. Periodicity has been observed in humans in association with sleep, body temperature and hormone secretion. The molecular mechanisms involved are being elucidated by the investigation of clock genes in mammals.
