Modelling multivalent interactons
(2016-11-26)A Multivalent entity, which could represent a protein, nanoparticle, polymer, virus or a lipid bilayer, has the ability to form multiple bonds to a substrate. Hence, a multivalent interaction can be strong, even if the ... -
Fundamentals and new applications of electrochemical promotion in catalysis
(2001-05-12)Electrochemical promotion (EP) is a new way of controlling catalytic performance. It is implemented by depositing porous thin film metal catalysts on solid electrolyte supports where they act as both a catalyst and a working ... -
On the complexity of energy landscapes: algorithms and a direct test of the Edwards conjecture
(2017-04-12)When the states of a system can be described by the extrema of a high-dimensional function, the characterisation of its complexity, i.e. the enumeration of the accessible stable states, can be reduced to a sampling problem. ... -
A Simulation Approach to the Study of Bacterial Secretion Proteins
(2017-07-22)Knowledge of the structure and dynamics of cellular protein complexes is essential for understanding their functionally relevant interactions. In Gram-negative bacteria, the complex machinery associated with the type II ...
