Comparing the performance of two structural indicators for different water models while seeking for connections between structure and dynamics in the glassy regime [PDF]
In this work, we compare the performance of two structural indicators based on the degree of translational order up to the second coordination shell in three water models: SPC/E, TIP4P/2005, and TIP5P.

Theoretical and experimental study of a new thiosulfonate derivative: Methyl trifluoromethanethiosulfonate, CF3SO2SCH3. Conformational transferability in CX3SO2S-R compounds [PDF]
Methyl trifluoromethanethiosulfonate, CF3SO2SCH3, was synthesized and characterized by 13C NMR, 19F NMR, and vibrational spectroscopy. This structural study was supported by MP2 and DFT (B3LYP and MPW1PW91) calculations, which revealed a strong ...

Plasma membrane calcium ATPase activity is regulated by actin oligomers through direct interaction [PDF]
As recently described by our group, plasma membrane calcium ATPase (PMCA) activity can be regulated by the actin cytoskeleton. In this study, we characterize the interaction of purified G-actin with isolated PMCA and examine the effect of G-actin during ...
