Mechanistic Modeling of Genetic Circuits for ArsR Arsenic Regulation

Bioreporters are living cells that generate an easily measurable signal in the presence of a chemical compound. They acquire their functionality from synthetic gene circuits, the configuration of which defines the response signal and signal-to-noise ratio. ...

Quantifying similarity of pore-geometry in nanoporous materials

Berend Smit, Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Senja Dominique Barthel, Yongjin Lee

In most applications of nanoporous materials the pore structure is as important as the chemical composition as a determinant of performance. For example, one can alter performance in applications like carbon capture or methane storage by orders of magnitud ...

Mixed-linker UiO-66: structure-property relationships revealed by a combination of high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction and density functional theory calculations

Berend Smit, Nicola Casati, Davide Tiana

The use of mixed-linker metal-organic frameworks (MIXMOFs) is one of the most effective strategies to modulate the physical-chemical properties of MOFs without affecting the overall crystal structure. In many instances, MIXMOFs have been recognized as soli ...
