Spotlight: Catalytic applications of molecular machines
Morteza Torabi was born in 1995 in Hamedan, Iran. He received his B.Sc. in Applied Chemistry (2017) and M.Sc. in Organic Chemistry (2019) from Bu-Ali Sina University under the supervision of Professor Mohammad Ali Zolfigol. He is currently working towards his Ph.D. under the supervision of Professor Mohammad Ali Zolfigol at Bu-Ali Sina University. His research interest is the design, synthesis ...
متن کاملMolecular Machines
The use of EM and image analysis techniques, particularly the single particle methodology, has opened the door to the structural characterization of large protein complexes in the megadalton range. This review covers the basic principles of single particle EM and recent examples of its application to the study of large molecular machines in the eukaryotic cell. These examples will give the read...
متن کاملMolecular machines.
Molecular machines are tiny energy conversion devices on the molecular-size scale. Whether naturally occurring or synthetic, these machines are generally more efficient than their macroscale counterparts. They have their own mechanochemistry, dynamics, workspace, and usability and are composed of nature's building blocks: namely proteins, DNA, and other compounds, built atom by atom. With moder...
متن کاملTheory of molecular machines. II. Energy dissipation from molecular machines.
Single molecules perform a variety of tasks in cells, from replicating, controlling and translating the genetic material to sensing the outside environment. These operations all require that specific actions take place. In a sense, each molecule must make tiny decisions. To make a decision, each "molecular machine" must dissipate an energy Py in the presence of thermal noise Ny. The number of b...
متن کاملTheory of molecular machines. I. Channel capacity of molecular machines.
Like macroscopic machines, molecular-sized machines are limited by their material components, their design, and their use of power. One of these limits is the maximum number of states that a machine can choose from. The logarithm to the base 2 of the number of states is defined to be the number of bits of information that the machine could "gain" during its operation. The maximum possible infor...
