Symmetry and dynamics of molecular rotors in amphidynamic molecular crystals.
Rotary biomolecular machines rely on highly symmetric supramolecular structures with rotating units that operate within a densely packed frame of reference, stator, embedded within relatively rigid membranes. The most notable examples are the enzyme FoF1 ATP synthase and the bacterial flagellum, which undergo rotation in steps determined by the symmetries of their rotators and rotating units. S...
متن کاملCrystalline molecular machines: encoding supramolecular dynamics into molecular structure.
Crystalline molecular machines represent an exciting new branch of crystal engineering and materials science with important implications to nanotechnology. Crystalline molecular machines are crystals built with molecules that are structurally programmed to respond collectively to mechanic, electric, magnetic, or photonic stimuli to fulfill specific functions. One of the main challenges in their...
متن کاملSynthetic molecular motors and mechanical machines.
The widespread use of controlled molecular-level motion in key natural processes suggests that great rewards could come from bridging the gap between the present generation of synthetic molecular systems, which by and large rely upon electronic and chemical effects to carry out their functions, and the machines of the macroscopic world, which utilize the synchronized movements of smaller parts ...

متن کاملLiquid Crystalline Water, Quantum Molecular Machines & the Living State
It has been 18 years since the discovery in my laboratory suggesting that living organisms are dynamic liquid crystalline phases in which all the molecules in the cells and tissues of the body are aligned and moving coherently together, including especially the water molecules that are intrinsic to the liquid crystalline matrix and essential to the function of macromolecules. In effect, the org...
