Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Van der Waals forces

open access: yesContemporary Physics, 1970
Summary Van der Waals forces are among the forces that attract atoms and molecules together. Their importance follows from two unique properties. Firstly, they are universal. All atoms and molecules attract one another through this mechanism, so they account for phenomena, such as the cohesion of the inert gases in the solid and liquid states, and ...

The Influence of Hydroxyl Groups on Friction of Graphene at Atomic Scale

open access: yesCrystals, 2018
Hydroxyl groups play an important role in friction of graphene oxides. In this paper, the influence of hydroxyl groups on friction of graphene is investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. The results show that the friction does not always go up with

Construction of a Universal Gel Model with Volume Phase Transition

open access: yesGels, 2020
The physical principle underlying the familiar condensation transition from vapor to liquid is the competition between the energetic tendency to condense owing to attractive forces among molecules of the fluid and the entropic tendency to disperse toward

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

4-Bromo-2-[1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-1-methylethyl]-1-methylbenzene

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E, 2011
In title compound, C18H21BrO, the dihedral angle between two rings is 85.72°. No classical hydrogen bonds are found and only van der Waals forces stabilize the crystal packing.

Particle Entrapment in Line Elastohydrodynamic Contacts and the Influence of Intermolecular (van der Waals) Forces

open access: yesLubricants, 2020
A metallic particle passing through concentrated rolling-sliding contacts is often linked to surface damage for particles larger than the available gap. At the instant of particle pinching, force balancing dictates particle entrapment and passing through

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...
