The effect of hydration and dynamics on the mass density of single proteins

The density of a protein molecule is a key property within a variety of experimental techniques. We present a computational method for determining protein mass density that explicitly incorporates hydration effects. Our approach uses molecular dynamics sim ...

Cellular EXchange Imaging (CEXI): Evaluation of a diffusion model including water exchange in cells using numerical phantoms of permeable spheres

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Ileana Ozana Jelescu, Rémy Marc M Gardier, Juan Luis Villarreal Haro

Purpose Biophysical models of diffusion MRI have been developed to characterize microstructure in various tissues, but existing models are not suitable for tissue composed of permeable spherical cells. In this study we introduce Cellular Exchange Imaging ( ...

2D MoS2 Nanopores: Wafer-scale Fabrication and Monolayer Stability for Long-term Single-Molecule Sensing

Mukeshchand Thakur

Biologically inspired solid-state nanopores are artificial openings or apertures in thin membranes similar to natural protein ion channels in a lipid bilayer of cell membranes. In solid-state nanopores, a thin insulating membrane with single or multiple po ...

Water as a contrast agent for imaging interfacial structure and ion transport in giant vesicles

David Roesel

Hydrated lipid bilayer membranes and their asymmetry play a fundamental role in living cells by maintaining and regulating concentration gradients between cells, their environment, and their compartments. They achieve this not only through various channels ...

Molecular ordering effects in bulk and at lipid/water nanoscopic interfaces: A story of water, light, and order

Nathan Dupertuis

Water is ubiquitous on Earth, playing a critical role for a plethora of structures, processes and chemical reactions in nature. Its unique physicochemical properties originate mainly from its hydrogen bond network. Despite its recognized importance, many a ...

Nanoscale resolution in infrared imaging of protein-containing lipid membranes

Giovanni Dietler, Andrzej Kulik

The precise imaging of biomolecular entities contributes to an understanding of the relationship between their structure and function. However, the resolution of conventional infrared microscopic imaging is diffraction limited and does not exceed a few mic ...

Synthesis, structural determination, theoretical studies and catalytic activity of Mn(II) complex of N-isonicotinyl phosphoric triamide ligand

Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Kurt Schenk

synthesized and characterized by H-1, C-13, P-31 NMR and IR spectroscopies. The reaction of MnCl2 center dot 4H(2)O with L led to the formation of a new 3D system {MnL2Cl2}(n)center dot 34CH(3)OH (C-1). X-ray crystallographic data revealed that the ligand ...

Activation of G-protein-coupled receptors correlates with the formation of a continuous internal water pathway

Horst Arthur Vogel, Shuguang Yuan

Recent crystal structures of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have revealed ordered internal water molecules, raising questions about the functional role of those waters for receptor activation that could not be answered by the static structures. Here, ...
