Developments of NMR methodology to characterise the structures of molecular organic
structures are reviewed, concentrating on the previous decade of research in which density …

Adhesive silks spun by aquatic caddisfly (order Trichoptera) larvae are used to build both
intricate protective shelters and food harvesting nets underwater. In this study, we use 13C …

The present work aims to better understand the relation between heat treatment (Ultra High
Temperature-UHT), partial demineralization of casein micelles (CMs) dispersions and their …

The casein micelle (CM) have been described as a protein assembly held together by
interactions between phosphoryl groups from the protein moieties, and several internal …

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments reveal the
structural importance of divalent cation–phosphate complexes in the formation of β-sheet …

From a multitude of homonuclear and heteronuclear correlation magic-angle-spinning
(MAS) NMR experiments, we present thorough structural and phase-quantification analyses …

O-phospho-l-serine (Pser) and its Ca salt, Ca [O-phospho-l-serine]· H2O (CaPser), play
important roles for bone mineralization and were recently also proposed to account for the …

Phosphorylation of serine residues has been recognized as a pivotal event in the evolution
of mineralized tissues in many biological systems. During enamel development, the …

By using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we refined the H atom positions in the
structures of β-caffeine (C), α-oxalic acid (OA;(COOH) 2), α-(COOH) 2· 2H2O, β-malonic acid …

Understanding how proteins stabilize amorphous calcium ortho-phosphate (ACP) phases is
of great importance in biology and for pharmaceutical or food applications. Until now, most …
