Molecular dynamics of ice-nanotube formation inside carbon nanotubes
The first order phase transition of a water cluster confined in a dynamic single-walled carbon nanotube is investigated using a classical molecular dynamics (MD) method. The formation of ice-nanotube is monitored through the structure factor and potential energies. The transition temperature and its diameter dependence obtained by the simulations agree well with those of previously reported exp...
متن کاملClassical molecular dynamics investigations of biphenyl-based carbon nanomembranes
BACKGROUND Free-standing carbon nanomembranes (CNM) with molecular thickness and macroscopic size are fascinating objects both for fundamental reasons and for applications in nanotechnology. Although being made from simple and identical precursors their internal structure is not fully known and hard to simulate due to the large system size that is necessary to draw definite conclusions. RESUL...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics and Docking Investigations of Several Zoanthamine-Type Marine Alkaloids as Matrix Metaloproteinase-1 Inhibitors
Zoanthamine-type alkaloids display a wide spectrum of biological effects. This study aimed to examine the inhibitory effects of norzoanthamine and its ten homologues of zoanthamine class on human fibroblast collagenase by modeling a three-dimensional structure of the ligands at collagenase using energy minimization, docking, molecular dynamics simulation and MM-PB/GBSA binding free energy calcu...
متن کاملSteered molecular dynamics investigations of protein function.
Molecular recognition and mechanical properties of proteins govern molecular processes in the cell that can cause disease and can be targeted for drug design. Single molecule measurement techniques have greatly advanced knowledge but cannot resolve enough detail to be interpreted in terms of protein structure. We seek to complement the observations through so-called Steered Molecular Dynamics (...
