Resmap: automated representation of macromolecular interfaces as two-dimensional networks

UNLABELLED To aid detailed comparison of a large number of macromolecular structures, Resmap imports Protein Data Bank files and represents subunit/domain interfaces as two-dimensional networks. AVAILABILITY http://www.kumc.edu/biochemistry/resmap/. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Default definitions and directions for graphically managing networks are available at the same website.

Towards two-dimensional metallic behavior at LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interfaces.

Using a low-temperature conductive-tip atomic force microscope in cross-section geometry we have characterized the local transport properties of the metallic electron gas that forms at the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. At low temperature, we find that the carriers do not spread away from the interface but are confined within approximately 10 nm, just like at room temperature. Simulations...

Spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas at oxide interfaces.

The possibility of formation of a fully spin-polarized 2D electron gas at the SrMnO_3/(LaMnO_3)_1/SrMnO_3 heterostructure is predicted from density-functional calculations. The La(d) electrons become confined in the direction normal to the interface in the electrostatic potential well of the positively charged layer of La atoms, acting as electron donors. These electrons mediate a ferromagnetic...

Roughness of crack interfaces in two-dimensional beam lattices.

The roughness of crack interfaces is reported in quasistatic fracture, using an elastic network of beams with random breaking thresholds. For strong disorders we obtain zeta = 0.86(3) for the roughness exponent, a result which is very different from the minimum energy surface exponent, i.e., zeta = 2 / 3. A crossover to lower values is observed as the disorder is reduced, the exponent in this r...
