human serum albumin (hsa) is the most abundant protein in the blood plasma. drug binding to hsa is crucial to study the absorption, distribution, metabolism, efficiency and bioavailability of drug molecules. in this study, isothermal titration calorimetry and molecular dynamics simulation of hsa and its complex with indometacin (im) were performed to investigate thermodynamics parameters and th...

phage elisa is a common method to confirm binding of obtained phages from phage display technique to related antigens. enzyme-conjugated antibody directed against the major capsid protein (pviii) or enzyme-conjugated secondary antibody against the primary antibody is used as a detection system in phage elisa. we have suggested to express an acid phosphatase (sapm) enzyme on m13 pix minor coat p...

to investigate the interaction and adsorption of drug and carbon nanotube on human serum albumin, three anti-cancer drugs ([pd(phen)(r-gly)]no3, r = methyl, propyl and amyl) with different hydrophobic tails and anticancer activities were selected. these drugs have better anti-tumor activity and less side effects than that known cis-platinum drug. human serum albumin is also important for drug d...

this paper investigates the mechanism of water transportation through aquaporin-4(aqp4) of ratbrain cells by means of molecular dynamics simulation with charmm software. the aqp4 wasembedded into a bilayer made of dimystroilphosphatylcholine (dmpc). the results illustrate thatwater molecules move through aqp4's channel with change of orientation of oxygen of eachwater molecule.

based on the notion of micro-structure in linear elasticity presented by mindlin, a newextended continuum mechanics (ecm) formulation is derived which can be utilized to model thematerial behavior at atomic scale. an attempt has been made to present a formulation capable ofproducing the molecular dynamics (md) simulation results with less computational effort. to thisend, some new kinematical v...

a detailed model of wind power station, including double fed induction generator, dfig is presented in this paper. two control mechanisms are included in the model. the inner control system uses stator flux oriented control for the rotor side converter and grid voltage vector control for the grid side converter. the outer control system is used for wind turbine pitch angle. pscad/emtdc is used ...

the understanding of the dynamic behavior of distillation columns has received considerable attention because distillation is one of the most widely used unit operations in chemical process industries. this paper reports a dynamic simulation study of the possible distillation columns sequences of dew pointing unit in the second phase of south pars gas refinery. in this unit, three columns are u...
