Infrared difference spectroscopy probes vibrational changes of proteins upon their
perturbation. Compared with other spectroscopic methods, it stands out by its sensitivity to …

Tau aggregation into insoluble filaments is the defining pathological hallmark of tauopathies.
However, it is not known what controls the formation and templated seeding of strain-specific …

The rational molecular design of non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) in organic solar cells
(OSCs) can profoundly influence the photovoltaic (OPV) performance. To date, NFA …

Cholesterol has been conjectured to be a modulator of the amyloid cascade, the mechanism
that produces the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides implicated in the onset of Alzheimer's disease …

Introduction to Proteins provides a comprehensive and state-of-the-art introduction to the
structure, function, and motion of proteins for students, faculty, and researchers at all levels …

The flexible regions represented by loops have been the focus of protein stability
engineering. However, residues located in specific rigid regions are also crucial for protein …

Polyglutamine (polyQ) tracts are regions of low sequence complexity frequently found in
transcription factors. Tract length often correlates with transcriptional activity and expansion …

The fundamental relationships between the structure and properties of liquids are far from
being well understood. For instance, the structural origins of many liquid anomalies still …

A series of linear non-isocyanate polyhydroxyurethanes (NIPUs) were synthesized by
aminolysis of a PPO bis-cyclic carbonate with two diamines, one of which …

The ability to stabilize enzymes and other proteins has wide-ranging applications. Most
protocols for enhancing enzyme stability require multiple rounds of high-throughput …
