The major factor that drives a protein chain toward collapse and folding is the hydrophobic effect. Amino acids with apolar side chains join forming a solvent-shielded hydrophobic core. This process pack the structure in ...

Estimations of protein global conformations in well-specified physicochemical microenvironments are obtained through global structural parameters defined from polypeptide-scale analyses. For this purpose protein electrophoretic ...

This work explores the possibility of using the electrically charged "spherical soft particle" (SSP) to model the electrophoretic mobility of proteins in the low charge regime. The general framework concerning the ...

Peptide electrophoretic mobility data are interpreted through a physicochemical CZE model, providing estimates of the equivalent hydrodynamic radius, hydration, effective and total charge numbers, actual ionizing pK, pH-near ...

Nesta tese de doutorado são mostrados sete novos cristais líquidos iônicos contendo o mesmo núcleo mesogênico, um grupo tolano conectado ao heterociclo 1,2,3-triazol, com diferentes números de cadeias terminais e comprimento ...

The self-assembly of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) into hierarchical structures on different length scales is one of the main aspects of "bottom-up" approaches to create materials with specific electronic, optical, or ...
