Journal ArticleDOI

Smaller and Faster: The 20-Residue Trp-Cage Protein Folds in 4 μs

TL;DR: This work has used laser temperature jump spectroscopy to measure the folding speed of the 20-residue Trp-cage, the smallest polypeptide known to exhibit truly cooperative folding behavior, with a folding speed that exceeds contact-order predictions and approaches anticipated diffusional “speed limits” for protein folding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current‐voltage characteristics of molecular wires: Eigenvalue staircase, Coulomb blockade, and rectification

TL;DR: In this paper, the current vs voltage curves of a mesoscopic device consisting of two electrodes and a molecular wire were studied at the Hartree-Fock level with electron repulsion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical study of the isomerization mechanism of azobenzene and disubstituted azobenzene derivatives

TL;DR: A series of azobenzenes was studied using ab initio methods to determine the substituent effects on the isomerization pathways, and it is postulate that after n --> pi (S(1) <-- S(0)) excitation, the rotation mechanism dominates.
Journal ArticleDOI

GPU-Accelerated Molecular Dynamics and Free Energy Methods in Amber18: Performance Enhancements and New Features.

TL;DR: Progress is reported in graphics processing unit (GPU)-accelerated molecular dynamics and free energy methods in Amber, including free energy perturbation and thermodynamic integration methods with support for nonlinear soft-core potential and parameter interpolation transformation pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coherent electron transport through an azobenzene molecule: a light-driven molecular switch.

TL;DR: A first-principles computational approach is applied to study a light-sensitive molecular switch that can convert between a trans and a cis configuration upon photoexcitation and finds that the conductance of the two isomers varies dramatically.
