Budding dynamics of the lipid membrane.

TL;DR: A novel patterning method of controlling the uniformity of the sizes and shapes of liposome buds nucleated from a flat lipid film casted on a flat substrate is reported, and it is envisioned that this study will provide insights on a sustained-release drug vehicle.

Computational Chemistry of Vision in Vertebrates and Invertebrates

TL;DR: Quantitative agreement between calculated and experimental absorption maxima is obtained for the retinal chromophore and of its derivatives in vacuo, vertebrate and invertebrate rhodopsins using the ONIOM hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics method.

Phototransduction in retinal rods and cones: effects of temperature and background light, and an application for testing drug delivery

Soile Nymark
TL;DR: This paper aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, as to provide real-time information about concrete mechanical properties such as E-modulus, compressive strength, and so on.

Chapter 26 Ion selectivity and substrate specificity: The structural basis of porin function

TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the structural basis of the functional characteristics of porins, and presents examples, such as matrix porin—an apparently nonspecific pore that appears to allow facilitated diffusion of small, polar molecules, and maltoporin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screened Coulomb interactions of general macroions with nonzero particle volume

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that rigid colloidal particles of various shapes can be mapped to an effective point, line, or surface charge distribution, allowing closed-form integral expressions for the electrostatic potential and effective pair potential for particles of possibly arbitrary shape and particle configuration.
