Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations techniques in terms of energetic and electronics properties are used to study CO2 adsorption in NH2-, OH-, COOH-, Br- and Cl-functionalized IRMOF-1. Geometry optimization, density of states (DOS), and energy analyses were performed to investigate the adsorption phenomenon. First, we examined the geometrical as well as the electronic structures of fun...

Density functional theory dispersion corrected (DFT-D3)calculations and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation were applied to investigate the sensing ability of four types of receptors (RCs) composed of the ortho-phenylenediamine based bis-ureas for selective complexation with the anions such as Cl–, Br–, OAC–, PhCO2–, H2PO4– and HSO4– in the gas phase and DMSO. On the basis of the data obtained fr...

The interaction between nanoparticles and biomolecules such as protein andDNA is one of the major instructions of nanobiotechnology research. In this study,we have explored the interaction of adenine nucleic base with a representativegolden cluster (Au13) by using dispersion corrected density functional theory(DFT-D3) within GGA-PBE model of theory. Various active sites ...

The investigation of the anticancer drugs will be important because of the proliferation ofcancer. We want to take steps to improve public health. The combination of two carbon nanotubes (singlewall nanotube and multi-wall nanotube) and Sup90-Dota (an anticancer drug) was investigated basedon Molecular Mechanic and Semi-Empirical methods. Our goal is to investigate the transfe...

in this paper energy bands and berry curvature of graphene was studied. desired hamiltonian regarding the next-nearest neighbors obtained by tight binding model. by using the second quantization approach, the transformation matrix is calculated and the hamiltonian of system is diagonalized. with this hamiltonian, the band structure and wave function can be calculated. by using calculated wave f...

in this research, the effect of the first order magnetic field on the ground-state of a centered hydrogenic donor impurity in a gaas/alas spherical quantum dot has been calculated. the perturbation method has been used within the framework of effective mass approximation for these calculations. overall, the analysis shows that a proper choice of quantum dot radius and magnetic field can signifi...

The high level of conservation in ATP-binding sites of protein kinases increasingly demandsthe quest to find selective inhibitors with little cross reactivity. Kinase kinases are a recently discovered group of Kinases found to be involved in several mitotic events. These proteins represent attractive targets for cancer therapy with several small molecule inhibitors undergoing different ph...

curcumin (cur) is the active curcuminoid with many physiological, biochemical, and pharmacological properties. solubility and stability of cur is the limiting factors for realizing its therapeutic potential. bovine β-casein is an abundant milk protein that is highly amphiphilic and self-assembles into stable micellar nanoparticles in aqueous solution. β-casein nanoparticle can solubilize cur mo...

     Most of the biological phenomena are influenced by intermolecular recognition and interaction. Thus, understanding the thermodynamics of biomacromolecule ligand interaction is a very interesting area in biochemistry and biotechnology. One of the most powerful techniques to obtain precise information about the energetics of (bio) molecules binding to other biological macromolecules is isoth...

By employing the theoretical method based on tight-binding, we study electronic band structure of single-wall carbon nanotube (CNT) superlattices, which the system is the made of the junction between the zigzag and armchair carbon nanotubes. Exactly at the place of connection, it is appeared the pentagon–heptagon pairs as topological defect in carbon hexagonal network. The calculations are base...
