Biporous Metal-Organic Framework with Tunable CO2/CH4 Separation Performance Facilitated by Intrinsic Flexibility

Berend Smit, Kyriakos Stylianou, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Daniele Ongari, Peter George Boyd, Andrzej Gladysiak, Arunraj Chidambaram, Kathryn Suzanne Deeg, Kaili Yee Ordiz

In this work, we report the synthesis of SION-8, a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) based on Ca(II) and a tetracarboxylate ligand TBAPy(4-) endowed with two chemically distinct types of pores characterized by their hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties ...

Transport characteristics of saturated gas diffusion layers treated with hydrophobic coatings

Sophia Haussener, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Mathias Raphaël Niffeler

Water flooding of cathodic gas diffusion layers (GDLs) in proton-exchange membrane fuel cells at high current densities or low temperatures limits efficient operation due to disturbed transport of reactants to the catalytic sites or products away into the ...

Exploring the relevance of gas-phase structures to biology: cold ion spectroscopy of the decapeptide neurokinin A

Oleg Boyarkine, Aleksandr Pereverzev

Linking the intrinsic tertiary structures of biomolecules to their native geometries is a central prerequisite for making gas-phase studies directly relevant to biology. The isolation of molecules in the gas phase eliminates hydrophilic interactions with s ...

Viruses at solid-water interfaces: A systematic assessment of interactions driving adsorption

Tamar Kohn, Anne Thérèse Sigstam, Meret Aeppli, Antonius Magdi Hakeem Armanious, Dominik Refardt

Adsorption to solid-water interfaces is a major process governing the fate of waterborne viruses in natural and engineered systems. The relative contributions of different interaction forces to adsorption and their dependence on the physicochemical propert ...

Pre-transition effects mediate forces of assembly between transmembrane proteins

Berend Smit

We present a mechanism for a generic, powerful force of assembly and mobility for transmembrane proteins in lipid bilayers. This force is a pre-transition (or pre-melting) effect for the first-order transition between ordered and disordered phases in the m ...

Structure of Crenezumab Complex with A beta Shows Loss of beta-Hairpin

Andrea Pfeifer, Andreas Muhs, Bing Li

Accumulation of amyloid-beta (A beta) peptides and amyloid plaque deposition in brain is postulated as a cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The precise pathological species of A beta remains elusive although evidence suggests soluble oligomers may be prima ...

Understanding Small-Molecule Interactions in Metal-Organic Frameworks: Coupling Experiment with Theory

Berend Smit, Wendy Lee Queen

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained much attention as next-generation porous media for various applications, especially gas separation/storage, and catalysis. New MOFs are regularly reported; however, to develop better materials in a timely manner ...

How Structural and Physicochemical Determinants Shape Sequence Constraints in a Functional Enzyme

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata

The need for interfacing structural biology and biophysics to molecular evolution is being increasingly recognized. One part of the big problem is to understand how physics and chemistry shape the sequence space available to functional proteins, while sati ...

Structural insights on cholesterol endosynthesis: Binding of squalene and 2,3-oxidosqualene to supernatant protein factor

Michele Cascella, Maria Josefina Marcaida Lopez, Christos Lamprakis

We present the crystal structures of the SEC14-like domain of supernatant protein factor (SPF) in complex with squalene and 2,3-oxidosqualene. The structures were resolved at 1.75 angstrom (complex with squalene) and 1.6 angstrom resolution (complex with 2 ...

Facile synthesis of oligoyne amphiphiles and their rotaxanes

Holger Frauenrath, Stephen Schrettl, Tobias Hoheisel, Martin Fritzsche, Ruth Szilluweit, Emmanuel Romaric Contal

Carbon-rich organic compounds containing a series of conjugated triple bonds (oligoynes) are relevant synthetic targets, but an improved access to oligoynes bearing functional groups would be desirable. Here, we report the straightforward synthesis of two ...
