On the entropy cost of making solvates [PDF]
We present a simple way of estimating the entropy cost of solvate formation in crystals. The entropy penalty of making solvates can be as low as <1 kJ mol−1 or as high as >9 kJ mol−1 and is entirely dependent on the nature of the liquid component ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

A 1:1 cocrystal involving an analgesic drug, ethenzamide (EA), and 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid exists in two polymorphs and forms a series of solvates. All the crystalline materials have been characterized by various analytical techniques, such as single ...

Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Correctly Measuring and Predicting Solubilities of Solvates, Hydrates, and Polymorphs
The formation of solvates, hydrates, or different polymorphs significantly alters the physicochemical properties of a target component (TC) (e.g., active pharmaceutical or agrochemical active ingredient), such as solubility and dissolution behavior. Thus,

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.
