Published in 2022 at "Advanced Science"

DOI: 10.1002/advs.202203796

Abstract: The latest biological findings observe that the motionless “lock‐and‐key” theory is not generally applicable and that changes in atomic sites and binding pose can provide important information for understanding drug binding. However, the computational expenditure… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Chemical Physics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.chemphys.2019.05.007

Abstract: Abstract A promising approach when developing efficient drug-delivery systems is to utilize a single carrier loaded with several drug molecules. Drug-binding peptides can be used as such transporters. However, knowledge about the microscopic mechanism of… read more here.
