DOI: 10.1021/acs.biomac.8b00204

Abstract: Controlling the helix-coil transition of polypeptides under physiological conditions is an attractive way toward smart functional materials. Here, we report the synthesis of a series of tertiary amine-functionalized ethylene glycol (EG x)-linked polypeptide electrolytes with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jctc.9b00630

Abstract: The inherent flexibility and conformational heterogeneity of carbohydrate pose a challenge for its modelling and sampling by existing classical force field. This work quantitatively assesses the quality of four popular carbohydrate force fields ( CHARMM36,GLYCAM06,… read more here.
