Multi-Scale Molecular Modeling of Rosette Nanotubes
Rosette nanotubes (RNTs) are supramolecular nanomaterials formed through a network of non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonds, π-π interactions, and hydrophobic effects. They form from Watson-Crick inspired guanine-cytosine (G∧C) motifs, which undergo hierarchical self-assembly to form supermacrocycles, also called rosettes. The latter self-organize into ring stacks (RSs) or helical c...
متن کاملRosette nanotubes inhibit bovine neutrophil chemotaxis
Migration of activated neutrophils that have prolonged lifespan into inflamed organs is an important component of host defense but also contributes to tissue damage and mortality. In this report, we used biologically-inspired RGD-tagged rosette nanotubes (RNT) to inhibit neutrophil chemotaxis. We hypothesize that RGD-RNT will block neutrophil migration through inhibition of MAPK. In this report...
متن کاملMolecular Modeling of Fluorescent SERCA Biosensors.
Molecular modeling and simulation are useful tools in structural biology, allowing the formulation of functional hypotheses and interpretation of spectroscopy experiments. Here, we describe a method to construct in silico models of a fluorescent fusion protein construct, where a cyan fluorescent protein (CFP) is linked to the actuator domain of the Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SER...
متن کاملModeling of Fluorescent Molecular Hydrogen in IC405
Rocket observations of the reflection nebula IC 405 are presented, including a high quality spectrum of the exciting star and nebular scattered light in the FUV bandpass. These data show a rise in the ratio of nebular surface brightness to stellar flux of roughly two orders of magnitude towards shorter wavelengths across the bandpass of the instrument. A model of fluorescing molecular hydrogen ...
متن کاملMolecular Imaging of Self-Assembled Rosette Nanotubes by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
The self-assembled rosette nanotubes (RNT) are organic nanomaterials generated from the selfassembly of a bicyclic guanine-cytosine (GC motif) base. One of the advantages of these nanomaterials is the ability to tailor their function and properties by synthetically modifying the GC motif. Therefore, understanding the detailed supramolecular structure and arrangement of the RNTs with different f...
