Putting proteins back into water
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a simplified protein model where the solvent (water) degrees of freedom appear explicitly (although in an extremely simplified fashion). Using this model we are able to recover the thermodynamic phenomenology of proteins over a wide range of temperatures. In particular we describe both the warm and the cold protein denaturation within a single framework, while addressing important issues about the structure of model proteins.

Nitrogen Uptake and Leaching on Greens
Superintendents know that management of putting greens is an art. Greens are often made of high-porosity sand that does not retain water or nutrients very effectively. Also, putting green grasses are cut extremely short, which does not allow a deep root system to develop and take up nutrients from deep in the soil profile. Therefore, putting greens require frequent irrigation and fertilizer app...
متن کاملPutting the pathway back into protein folding.
T he article by Liwo et al. in this issue of PNAS (1) on ab initio simulations of the folding pathway of a number of representative small proteins marks a renaissance in efforts to simulate the mechanism of protein folding without prior knowledge of the native structure. While there has been recent progress in predicting the three-dimensional native structure of a protein (2, 3), the most succe...

Aims and background: Patients with non-specific low back pain experience disorder in back motor control and trunk muscle endurance and these disorders are associated with pain in these patients. The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of motor control exercises, exercise in water, and combined exercises on back motor control and trunk muscle resistance in patients with chr...
