The excited state properties of transition metal complexes have become a central focus of research owing to a wide range of possible applications that seek to exploit their luminescence properties. Herein, we use density functional theory (DFT), time-depen ...
We present QMMMW, a new program aimed at performing Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics (QM/MM) molecular dynamics. The package operates as a wrapper that patches PWscf code included in the QUANTUM ESPRESSO distribution and LAMMPS Molecular Dynamics Simu ...
Aqueous,monoethanolamine (MEA) solution is commonly used for post-combustion carbon capture via chemical absorption. Extensive research has been carried out to characterize both uptake and release of carbon dioxide (CO2), with the aim of improving process ...
Characteristic timescales associated with the function of biomolecules, like proteins, range from femtoseconds up to minutes, whereas their corresponding spatial extent ranges from few ̊A to μm when associating in large macromolecular complexes. Moreover, ...
DNA supercoiling plays a role in genetic control by imposing torsional stress. This can induce writhe, which changes the global shape of the DNA. We have used atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to partition the free energy changes driving the writhin ...
The long-range correction to the surface tension can amount to up to 55% of the calculated value of the surface tension for cutoffs in the range of 2.1-6.4 sigma. The calculation of the long-range corrections to the surface tension and to the configuration ...
Boosted by the technological advances in experimental techniques, cellular biology is nowadays facing the need for quantitative approaches in order to rationalize the huge amount of collected data. A particularly succesfull theoretical framework is provide ...
cgDNA is a package for the prediction of sequence-dependent configuration-space free energies for B-form DNA at the coarse-grain level of rigid bases. For a fragment of any given length and sequence, cgDNA calculates the configuration of the associated fre ...
Quantum chemical implicit solvent models are used widely to estimate aqueous redox potentials. We compared the accuracy of several popular implicit solvent models (SM8, SMD, C-PCM, IEF-PCM, and COSMO-RS) for the prediction of aqueous single electron oxidat ...
Solvated radicals play an important role in many areas of chemistry, but to date, the nature of their interactions with polar solvent molecules lacks chemical interpretation. We present a computational quantum chemical analysis of the binding motives of bi ...
