Protein dynamics plays key roles in ligand binding. However, the microscopic description of conformational dynamics-coupled ligand binding remains a challenge. In this study, we integrate molecular dynamics simulations, Markov state model (MSM) analysis and experimental methods to characterize the conformational dynam…
In the present work, improved crystal quality of GaN on a graphene-covered sapphire substrate was achieved compared to GaN grown on a bare sapphire substrate, and the growth mechanism of GaN quasi-van der Waals epitaxy with an AlN nucleation layer was clarified using metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The in sit…
The vapor-liquid-solid growth of semiconductor nanowires proceeds via the sequential addition of individual atomic or biatomic monolayers at the interface between the nanowire stem and a liquid catalyst droplet. Each monolayer growth cycle comprises a period of nucleation and extension of the monolayer followed by a w…
Background. The dental pulp is a heterogeneous soft tissue that supplies nutrients and acts as a biosensor to identify pathogenic stimuli. Regeneration of the dental pulp is one of the desirable topics for researchers. Graphene oxide nanosheets (nGOs) help overexpression of the genes related to odontogenic differentia…
In order to synthesize a new kind of buoyancy material with high-strength, low-density and low-water-absorption and to study the curing reaction of tetraglycidylamine epoxy resin with an aromatic amine curing agent, the non-isothermal differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) method is used to calculate the curing kinet…
Abstract The cycling performance of lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries, which is a major parameter determining the practical application of such an advanced high-energy-density battery system (1675 mA h g–1), is strongly affected by the properties of the cathodic sulfur hosts. As a desirable sulfur host, it should posses…
Noble metal nanoparticles are attractive catalytic materials because of the excellent physical and chemical properties. However, the structural stability and hydrogenation mechanism of NiPt nanoparticle are not entirely unclear due to the structural feature. We apply the first-principles calculations to study the stru…
Although more than 75% of the proteome is composed of multidomain proteins, current knowledge of protein folding is based primarily on studies of isolated domains. In this work, we describe the folding mechanism of a multidomain tandem construct comprising two distinct covalently bound PDZ domains belonging to a prote…
The scope of the present article is the status of the research, development, and demonstrations of treatment technologies for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS)-laden material that are funded by the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) and the Environmental Security Technology Certif…
Deep eutectic solvents based on choline chloride and a series of urea derivatives are studied by molecular dynamics simulations with the aim to identify molecular features contributing to nonideal mixing behavior of these compounds. In case of reline, a mixture of choline chloride and urea in 1:2 ratio, urea molecules…
Wearable pH sensors are useful tools in the healthcare and fitness industries, allowing consumers to access information related to their health in a convenient manner via the monitoring of body fluids. In this work, we tailored novel protein-textile composites to fluorescently respond to changing pH. To do so, we used…
In the present study, a simple method for the synthesis of the ZIF-8 membrane has been proposed. This method involves growing the ZIF-8 layer onto the external surface of the ZnO porous hollow support, with inner and outer diameters of 1.55 mm and 2.06 mm, respectively. The ZnO hollow fibers with a thin spongy layer a…
The formation of membrane fouling in the process of wastewater treatment is a significant challenge. Here, the authors present a novel strategy to design a filtration membrane with efficient antifouling property by one-pot electrospinning of silver chloride (AgCl) and dimethylformamide (AgCl2−/DMF) solution. The silve…
To address concerns over plastics in the global environment, this project produced three wood plastics composites (WPCs) which could divert plastics from the waste stream into new materials. The three materials made had a ratio of 85%:15%, 90%:10%, and 95%:5% low density polyethylene (LDPE) to wood powder and were pro…
To fight reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by both the metabolism and strongly oxidative habitats, hyperthermophilic archaea are equipped with an array of antioxidant enzymes whose role is to protect the biological macromolecules from oxidative damage. The most common ROS, such as superoxide radical (O2•−) and hy…
The coercive field of ferromagnets generally increases with decreasing the sample size to hundreds of nanometers mainly because of the (edge) defect pinning. We investigate size-dependent anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in (112¯0)-oriented noncollinear antiferromagnetic Mn3Sn films. The switching field (coercive field) of…
The capability of controlling the phase of the nonlinear polarization of media is vital for nonlinear optical beam shaping. Achieving this control over nonlinear phase manipulation on the nanoscale facilitates modern on-chip photonic integration of nonlinear beam shaping. Plasmonic metasurfaces with thickness down to…
Curcumin is a natural compound extracted from turmeric (Curcuma longa), which has been reported to be a promising anti‑cancer drug in various human cancers. However, the effects of combination treatment of curcumin with gemcitabine or docetaxel on pancreatic cancer remains elusive. In the present study, the combinator…
High-purity silicon is a readily available material of utility in realizing a variety of long-wavelength optical and guided wave components. The transmittance of uncompensated for silicon is measured in the far- and mid-infrared regimes at room and cryogenic temperatures. The experimental and analysis techniques used…
Since obtaining a highly oriented structure based on a large-scale commercial ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is considered very difficult due to its high molecular weight and melting index, modifying the structure of these cheap commercial UHMWPE brands into a supra-molecular structure with fiber-fo…
