Abstract:
Computer modeling is a popular tool to identify the most-probable conformers of a molecule. Although the solvent can have a large effect on the stability of a conformation, many popular conformational search methods are only capable of describing molecules in the gas phase or with an implicit solvent model. We have developed a work-flow for performing a conformation search on explicitly-solvated molecules using open source software. This method uses replica exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) to sample the conformational states of the molecule efficiently. Cluster analysis is used to identify t

Abstract:
Binding of extracellular ligands to G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) initiates transmembrane signaling by inducing conformational changes on the cytoplasmic receptor surface. Knowledge of this process provides a platform for the development of GPCR-targeting drugs. Here, using a site-specific Cy3 fluorescence probe in the human β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR), we observed that individual receptor molecules in the native-like environment of phospholipid nanodiscs undergo spontaneous transitions between two distinct conformational states. These states are assigned to inactive and active-like re

A methodology is described for analysing the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) in terms of molecular conformations. Molecular species that have more than a single occurrence across the complete CSD are identified, either as the sole crystal component or co-crystallized with other components. Cluster analysis, based on a root-mean-square fit of coordinates and chemical connectivity, is performed to identify conformational variance for each molecule. Results are analysed in terms of the number of discrete conformations observed versus the number of crystal environments and number of acyclic to

Characterizing the impact of fluctuating enzyme conformation on enzymatic activity is critical in understanding the structure–function relationship and enzymatic reaction dynamics.

“Tunable” clay–polymer composites have the potential to improve the engineering properties of clay materials.

However, the influence of polymer molecule conformation on particle arrangement and overall composite behavior is not well understood.

Crystallising large, flexible molecules, which are becoming more common in pharmaceutical development, often presents significant challenges for chemists and particle scientists. These difficulties are sometimes attributed to the flexibility of the molecule, and the existence of multiple conformers in solution. Structurally related impurities, frequently present when crystallising these materials, can also impact on growth and habit, and both these aspects are considered in this thesis.

Although the chains pack at a distance of only 3.8Å, the resonant coulomb interaction between nearest-neighbour molecules is small, owing to large average conjugation lengths within the lamellae. When the resonant coulomb (or excitonic) interaction is smaller than the vibrational relaxation energy, the excitation is localised on a single molecule and the coupling is termed <i>weak.

Abstract:
Azobenzene polymer networks have drawn interests in the area of adaptive materials and structures due to their novel photo-responsive material coupling. These materials undergo a complex light driven molecular conformation change of the azobenzene chromophore when the material is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) or blue-green light. This photoisomerization process is characterized by a molecular conformation change from a rod shaped molecule to a strongly kinked molecule, also known as trans-cis photoisomerization under UV light exposure. Exposure to blue-green light can lead to a trans-cis-trans p

Abstract:
The formation of designed nanocomposites by multiple layers of adsorbate molecules is studied. We consider the presence of two types of molecules in each layer, which are characterized by different dipole moments. The nanostructures are characterized by the non-uniform distribution of the two molecules. A phase field model is developed to simulate the molecular diffusion and patterning under the combined actions of dipole moments, intermolecular forces, entropy, and external electric field. The study reveals self-alignment, structure conformation and the possibility to reduce the domain sizes

Abstract:
The interaction of glycine zwitterion and water is calculated using ab initio method with minimized GLO basis set. The first hydration shell of glycine zwitterion is predicted to compose of five water molecules. The influence of the first hydration to the internal rotation of glycine zwitterion is studied and the energy optimized pathway is compared with that of isolated molecule. The investigation of glycine zwitterion-Na[superscript +] complex in water provides that the two coordinated water of aquo complex of Na[superscript +] are dehydrated and replaced by glycine zwitterion. Thus the form

Abstract:
Humic acid substances (HAs) in natural soil and sediment environments effect the retention and degradation of insensitive munitions compounds and legacy high explosives (MCs): DNAN, DNi- NH4+, nMNA, NQ, NTO (neutral and anionic forms), TNT, and RDX.A humic acid model compound has been considered using molecular dynamics, thermodynamic integration, and density functional theory to characterize the munition binding ability, ionization potential, and electron affinity compared to that in the water solution. Humic acids bind most compounds and act as both a sink and source for electrons. Ionizatio
