Although carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been shown to nonspecifically bind proteins
through charge complementary, π− π stacking or hydrophobic interactions, they have not …

The preferred spatial orientation of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in their
interaction with enzymes determines their behavior either as nano-supports or as inhibitors …

Integrating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with biological systems to form hybrid functional
assemblies is an innovative research area with great promise for medical, nanotechnology …

Because of the special properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), their applications have been
introduced to many fields. The biosafety of these emerging materials is of high concern …

We have examined the structure and function of two enzymes, α-chymotrypsin (CT) and
soybean peroxidase (SBP), adsorbed onto single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). SBP …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are allotropes of carbon with a nanostructure that can have a
length‐to‐diameter ratio greater than 1,000,000. Techniques have been developed to …

The α-chymotrypsin (α-ChT) enzyme is extensively used for studying nanomaterial-induced
enzymatic activity inhibition. A recent experimental study reported that carboxylized carbon …

We describe the structure, activity, and stability of enzymes covalently attached to single-
walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Conjugates of SWNTs with three functionally unrelated …

In this study, we report a detailed experimental, binding free energy calculation and
molecular dynamics (MD) simulation investigation of the interactions of carboxylic …

The interface between biological molecules and novel nanomaterials is important to
developing new types of miniature devices for biological applications. Here, the …
