Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
In this thesis, quantum chemical methods have been applied to elucidate the thermodynamics and the kinetics of reactions involving reactive species in water. Due to their high reactivity in water, many transient species are difficult to study by experiment ...
The complex mechanisms involved in cellular processes have been increasingly understood this past century and the central role of the DNA molecule has been recognized. The base pair sequence along a DNA fragment is observed not only to encode the genomic i ...
First principles simulations were used to predict aqueous one-electron oxidation potentials (E-ox) and associated half-cell reorganization energies (lambda(aq)) for aniline, phenol, methoxybenzene, imidazole, and dimethylsulfide. We employed quantum mechan ...
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 ...
Background: The RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB) provides public access to experimentally determined 3D-structures of biological macromolecules (proteins, peptides and nucleic acids). While various tools are available to explore the PDB, options to access the ...
Adherent cells migrate and change their shape by means of protrusion and retraction at their edges. When and where these activities occur defines the shape of the cell and the way it moves. Despite a great deal of knowledge about the structural organizatio ...
In the current work, free volume concepts, primarily applied to glass formers in the literature, were transferred to ionic liquids (ILs). A series of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium (C4MIM) based ILs was investigated by Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spec ...
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, ...
A novel hierarchy of coarse-grain, sequence-dependent, rigid-base models of B-form DNA in solution is introduced. The hierarchy depends on both the assumed range of energetic couplings, and the extent of sequence dependence of the model parameters. A signi ...
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 ...
