External and internal electrostatic potentials of cholinesterase models.
The electrostatic potentials for the three-dimensional structures of cholinesterases from various species were calculated, using the Delphi algorithm, on the basis of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation. We used structures for Torpedo californica and mouse acetylcholinesterase, and built homology models of the human, Bungarus fasciatus, and Drosophila melanogaster acetylcholinesterases and human but...
متن کاملSome Observations Concerning Electronic Densities, Electrostatic Potentials and Chemical Potentials
The hypothesis that the electronic density distribution in a molecule is qualitatively similar to the nuclear potential is shown . to be in error in at least two cases-oxirane and cubane-although it does hold true in a' number of other systems. Its emphasis upon the dominant role played by electrostatic internctions with the nuclei is consistent with some approximate molecular energy formulas. ...
متن کاملNon-Abelian gauge potentials in graphene bilayers.
We study the effect of spatial modulations in the interlayer hopping of graphene bilayers, such as those that arise upon shearing or twisting. We show that their single-particle physics, characterized by charge accumulation and recurrent formation of zero-energy bands as the pattern period L increases, is governed by a non-Abelian gauge potential arising in the low-energy electronic theory due ...
متن کاملDipole density instead of potentials in electrocardiology
We discuss the forward and inverse problems between the potential V (x) measured in a heart chamber and its sources represented by a dipole density d(y) located on the heart wall. We show that the mapping from d(y) to V (x) is a compact integral operator. Its inverse is unbounded which makes the inverse problem ill-posed in the mathematical sense. We investigate methods to solve the inverse pro...
متن کاملElectrostatic Potentials in Supernova Remnant Shocks
Recent advances in the understanding of the properties of supernova remnant shocks have been precipitated by the Chandra and XMM X-ray Observatories, and the HESS Atmospheric Čerenkov Telescope in the TeV band. A critical problem for this field is the understanding of the relative degree of dissipative heating/energization of electrons and ions in the shock layer. This impacts the interpretatio...
