Determination of ferroelectric compositional phase transition using novel virtual crystal approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We employ a new method for studying compositionally disordered ferroelectric oxides. This method is based on the virtual crystal approximation (VCA), in which two or more component potentials are averaged into a composite atomic potential. In our method,

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

A heuristic approach to evaluate peri interactions versus intermolecular interactions in an overcrowded naphthalene

open access: yesIUCrJ, 2017
Octachloronaphthalene (OCN), a serious environmental pollutant, has been investigated by charge density analysis to unravel several unexplored factors responsible for steric overcrowding.

Superlattice-induced ferroelectricity in charge-ordered La$_{1/3}$Sr$_{2/3}$FeO$_{3}$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Charge-order-driven ferroelectrics are an emerging class of functional materials, distinct from conventional ferroelectrics, where electron-dominated switching can occur at high frequency.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Correlated Electronic Properties of a Graphene Nanoflake: Coronene

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
We report studies of the correlated excited states of coronene and substituted coronene within the Pariser–Parr–Pople (PPP) correlated π -electron model employing the symmetry-adapted

Plasma extrachromosomal circular DNA as a biomarker in EGFR‐targeted therapy of non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detection of extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) in plasma samples from EGFR‐mutated non‐small cell lung cancer patients. Plasma was collected before and during treatment with the EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitor osimertinib. Plasma eccDNA was detected in all cancer samples, and the presence of the EGFR gene on eccDNA serves as a potential biomarker ...

Emergence of two-fold non-Hermitian spectral topology through synthetic spin engineering

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
The union of topology and non-Hermiticity has led to the unveiling of many intriguing phenomena. We introduce a synthetic spin-engineered model belonging to symmetry class AI, which is a rare occurrence, and demonstrate the emergence of a multi-fold ...

Electron energy loss spectroscopic investigation of Mie resonances in bimetallic nanostructures

open access: yesChemical Physics Impact
Bimetallic nanostructures can exhibit significant broadening of Mie resonances compared to monometallic nanoparticles. Here, we study these materials using Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy at a single particle level.

Halogen bonds in some dihalogenated phenols: applications to crystal engineering

open access: yesIUCrJ, 2014
3,4-Dichlorophenol (1) crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41/a with a short axis of 3.7926 (9) Å. The structure is unique in that both type I and type II Cl...Cl interactions are present, these contact types being distinguished by the angle ...
