Neuroprotection of Truncated Peptide IIAVE from Isochrysis zhanjiangensis: Quantum Chemical, Molecular Docking, and Bioactivity Studies

open access: yesMolecules
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder of the elderly for which there is no cure or disease-modifying therapy. Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress play a central role in dopaminergic neurodegeneration in PD ...

Atomic delocalization as a microscopic origin of two-level defects in Josephson junctions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Identifying the microscopic origins of decoherence sources prevalent in Josephson junction (JJ) based circuits is central to their use as functional quantum devices.

Simulation of chemical reaction dynamics on an NMR quantum computer

open access: yes, 2011
Quantum simulation can beat current classical computers with minimally a few tens of qubits and will likely become the first practical use of a quantum computer.

Geometrical Quantum Chemical Engine

open access: yes, 2021
We propose a geometrical engine undergoing an adiabatic (Thouless) pumping process for a small system connected to external isothermal reservoirs with the control of electrochemical potentials of the reservoirs and one parameter in the system Hamiltonian.

The Critical End Point of Quantum Chromodynamics Detected by Chirally Imbalanced Quark Matter

open access: yes, 2011
We suggest the idea, supported by concrete calculations within chiral models, that the critical endpoint of the phase diagram of Quantum Chromodynamics with three colors can be detected, by means of Lattice simulations of grand-canonical ensembles with a

Ultrafast energy relaxation dynamics of amide I vibrations coupled with protein-bound water molecules

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Vibrational energy relaxation of proteins helps us to understand ultrafast protein dynamics. Here, the authors determine the vibrational energy transfer time of the amide I mode in aqueous environment and find that water provides a “shortcut” through a ...

Chemical compass model for avian magnetoreception as a quantum coherent device

open access: yes, 2013
It is known that more than 50 species use the Earth's magnetic field for orientation and navigation. Intensive studies particularly behavior experiments with birds, provide support for a chemical compass based on magnetically sensitive free radical ...

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Laser threshold magnetometry

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
We propose a new type of sensor, which uses diamond containing the optically active nitrogen-vacancy (NV ^− ) centres as a laser medium. The magnetometer can be operated at room-temperature and generates light that can be readily fibre coupled, thereby ...

On the Non-invasive Measurement of the Intrinsic Quantum Hall Effect

open access: yes, 1994
With a model calculation, we demonstrate that a non-invasive measurement of intrinsic quantum Hall effect defined by the local chemical potential in a ballistic quantum wire can be achieved with the aid of a pair of voltage leads which are separated by ...
