Algebraic Approach to Molecular Thermodynamics
An algebraic model based on Lie-algebraic and discrete symmetry techniques is applied to the analysis of thermodynamic vibrational properties of molecules. The local anharmonic effects are described by a Morse-like potential and the corresponding anharmonic bosons are associated with the SU(2) algebra. A vibrational high-temperature partition function and the related thermodynamic functions are...
متن کاملMolecular thermodynamics for charged biomacromolecules
Significant progress has been made over the past 25–30 years toward understanding the molecular basis of stability and biological functions of proteins and nucleic acids. Electrostatic calculations hold a prominent place among most advanced and popular computational methods to describe the influence of solution conditions on and the precise role played by individual amino acids or atoms in stab...
متن کاملMolecular motors: thermodynamics and the random walk.
The biochemical cycle of a molecular motor provides the essential link between its thermodynamics and kinetics. The thermodynamics of the cycle determine the motor's ability to perform mechanical work, whilst the kinetics of the cycle govern its stochastic behaviour. We concentrate here on tightly coupled, processive molecular motors, such as kinesin and myosin V, which hydrolyse one molecule o...
متن کاملCellular Thermodynamics: the molecular and macroscopic views
Based on the previous article 'Cellular Thermodynamics' (2004) by Joe Wolfe Article contents • Introduction • Equilibrium • Steady state • Heat, light, photons and 'useful energy' • Macroscopic and microscopic views • Distribution of molecules and energy: low energy vs. high entropy • Reaction rates and equilibria • Enthalpy • Gibbs free energy • Other equilibria • The chemical potential • Surf...
متن کاملHybridization kinetics and thermodynamics of molecular beacons.
Molecular beacons are increasingly being used in many applications involving nucleic acid detection and quantification. The stem-loop structure of molecular beacons provides a competing reaction for probe-target hybridization that serves to increase probe specificity, which is particularly useful when single-base discrimination is desired. To fully realize the potential of molecular beacons, it...
