Unusually Stable Helical Coil Allotrope of Phosphorus.
We have identified an unusually stable helical coil allotrope of phosphorus. Our ab initio density functional theory calculations indicate that the uncoiled, isolated straight one-dimensional chain is equally stable as a monolayer of black phosphorus dubbed phosphorene. The coiling tendency and the attraction between adjacent coil segments add an extra stabilization energy of ∼12 meV/atom to th...
متن کاملPhosphorus K4 Crystal: A New Stable Allotrope
The intriguing properties of phosphorene motivate scientists to further explore the structures and properties of phosphorus materials. Here, we report a new allotrope named K4 phosphorus composed of three-coordinated phosphorus atoms in non-layered structure which is not only dynamically and mechanically stable, but also possesses thermal stability comparable to that of the orthorhombic black p...
متن کاملUnusually stable helical kink in the antimicrobial peptide--a derivative of gaegurin.
The structure of an active analog of the antibacterial peptide gaegurin was investigated by CD and NMR spectroscopy. The NOE connectivities showed that 21 out of 24 residues formed an a-helix despite the presence of a central proline. CD and NMR analysis indicates that the helix is in fast equilibrium with random coil. From chemical shift analysis of the amide protons, the distances of hydrogen...
متن کاملOnconase: an unusually stable protein.
Several members of the RNase A superfamily are endowed with antitumor activity, showing selective cytotoxicity toward tumor cell lines. One of these is onconase, the smallest member of the superfamily, which at present is undergoing phase-III clinical trials as an antitumor drug. Our investigation focused on other interesting features of the enzyme, such as its unusually high denaturation tempe...
متن کاملStable Dirac semi-metal in the allotrope of IV elements
Three dimensional topological Dirac semi-metals represent a novel state of quantum matter with exotic electronic properties, in which a pair of Dirac points with the linear dispersion along all momentum directions exist in the bulk. Herein, by using the first principles calculations, we discover a new metastable allotrope of Ge and Sn in the staggered layered dumbbell structure, named as german...
