Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamically controlled protein tunneling paths in photosynthetic reaction centers.

TL;DR: This work identifies a new mechanism of nuclear dynamics amplification that plays a central role when interference among the dominant tunneling pathway tubes is destructive and affects certain reaction rates in the photosynthesis reaction center and therefore may be critical for biological function.
Journal ArticleDOI

CERAPP: Collaborative Estrogen Receptor Activity Prediction Project

TL;DR: This project demonstrated the possibility to screen large libraries of chemicals using a consensus of different in silico approaches and the efficacy of using predictive computational models trained on high-throughput screening data to evaluate thousands of chemicals for ER-related activity and prioritize them for further testing.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Nature of Aqueous Tunneling Pathways Between Electron-Transfer Proteins

TL;DR: This work describes three distinctive electronic coupling mechanisms that explain a range of otherwise puzzling biological ET kinetic data and provides a framework for including explicit water-mediated tunneling effects on ET kinetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein dynamics and electron transfer: Electronic decoherence and non-Condon effects

TL;DR: The autocorrelation function of the donor-acceptor tunneling matrix element for six Ru-azurin derivatives is computed and it is shown that for azurin, the correlation function is remarkably insensitive to tunneling pathway structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steering electrons on moving pathways.

TL;DR: Recent studies are described that address puzzling questions of how conformational distributions, excited-state polarization, and electronic and nuclear dynamical effects influence ET in macromolecules, including the tunneling, resonant transport, and hopping regimes.
