First-principles study of formic acid decomposition on single Pt atoms supported on heteroatom-doped graphene
Formic acid is a promising liquid hydrogen carrier, but its catalytic decomposition requires both high activity and selectivity toward dehydrogenation. Here, we investigated the catalytic activity and selectivity of formic acid decomposition on single Pt atoms supported on pristine and heteroatom-doped graphene using first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory. Reaction energy profiles reveal that single Pt atoms on P- and O-doped graphene show catalytic activity compar…

Computational predictions of nutrient precipitation for intensified cell 1 culture media via amino acid solution thermodynamics
The majority of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) on the market are produced using Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells cultured at scale in chemically defined cell culture medium. Because of the high costs associated with mammalian cell cultures, obtaining high cell densities to produce high product titers is desired. These bioprocesses require high concentrations of nutrients in the basal media and periodically adding concentrated feed media to sustain cell growth and therapeutic protein …

"""
In melancholy, the spirits are carried away by an agitation, but a weak agitation that lacks power or violence, a sort of impotent upset that follows neither a particular path nor the aperta opercula [open ways], but traverses the cerebral matter constantly creating new pores. Yet the spirits do not wander far on the new paths they create, and their agitation dies down rapidly, as their strength is quickly spent and motion comes to a halt: ‘non longe perveniunt’ [they do not reach far]. A trouble of this nature, common to all delirium, does not have the power to produce on the surface of the body the violent movements or the cries to be observed in mania and frenzy. Melancholy never attains frenzy; it is a madness always at the limits of its own impotence. That paradox is explained by the secret alterations in the spirits. Ordinarily, they travel with the speed and instantaneous transparency of rays of light, but in melancholy they become weighed down with night, becoming ‘obscure, thick and dark’, and the images of things that they bring before consciousness are ‘in a shadow, or covered with darkness’. As a result they move more slowly, and are more like a dark, chemical vapour than pure light. This chemical vapour is acid in nature, rather than sulphurous or alcoholic, for in acid vapours the particles are mobile and incapable of repose, but their activity is weak and without consequence. When they are distilled, all that remains in the still is a kind of insipid phlegm. Acid vapours, therefore, are taken to have the same properties as melancholy, whereas alcoholic vapours, which are always ready to burst into flames, are more related to frenzy, and sulphurous vapours bring on mania, as they are agitated by continuous, violent movement. If the ‘formal reason and causes’ of melancholy were to be sought, it made sense to look for them in the vapours that rose up from the blood to the head, and which had degenerated into ‘an acetous or sharp distillation’. A cursory glance seems to indicate that a melancholy of spirits and a whole chemistry of humours lies behind Willis’ analyses, but in fact his guiding principle mostly reflects the immediate qualities of the melancholic illness: an impotent disorder, and the shadow that comes over the spirit with an acrid acidity that slowly corrodes the heart and the mind. The chemistry of acids is not an explanation of the symptoms, but a qualitative option: a whole phenomenology of melancholic experience.

Acid-busting diet triggers 13-pound weight loss in just 16 weeks
Swap steaks for spinach and you might watch the scale plummet. In a 16-week crossover study, overweight adults who ditched animal products for a low-fat vegan menu saw their bodies become less acidic and dropped an average of 13 pounds—while the Mediterranean diet left weight unchanged. Researchers link the shift to lower “dietary acid load,” a hidden inflammation trigger driven by meat, eggs, and cheese.

Dynamic programming algorithms are used to compute the most favoured, or Minimum Free Energy (MFE), structure, and the Partition Function (PF), a tool for assigning a probability to any structure. However, in some situations, such as when there are large numbers of strands, or pseudoknoted systems, NP-hardness results show that s…

The effect of ultraviolet radiation (275 nm) on the Raman spectra of amino acid microcrystals: alanine, glycine, tryptophan was studied. The position of some lines in the spectra after irradiation has slightly shifted towards high energies. The main effect: observation of changes in the relative intensities of the components of the Raman spectra after irradiation of microcrystals. It has been suggested that this change is due to the reorientation of some molecules under the influence of radiati…

The specific amino acid sequence that is responsible for the aggregates of Beta-Amyloid is lys-leu-val-phe-phe (KLVFF). KLVFF aggregation inhibitors, which we design in this paper, prevent KLVFF from binding with itself to form oligomers or fibrils (and eventually plaques) that cause neuronal death.

Liquid-liquid phase separation enables highly selective viral genome packaging
In many viruses, hundreds of proteins assemble an outer shell (capsid) around the viral nucleic acid to form an infectious virion. How the assembly process selects the viral genome amidst a vast excess of diverse cellular nucleic acids is poorly understood. It has recently been discovered that many viruses perform assembly and genome packaging within liquid-liquid phase separated biomolecular condensates inside the host cell. However, the role of condensates in genome packaging is poorly unders…

Clay Edges Are Dynamic Proton-conducting Networks Modulated by Structure and pH
Montmorillonite, a ubiquitous clay mineral, plays a vital role in geochemical and environmental processes due to its chemically complex edge surfaces. However, the molecular-scale acid-base reactivity of these interfaces remains poorly understood due to the limitations of both experimental resolution and conventional simulations. Here, we employ machine learning potentials with first-principles accuracy to perform nanosecond-scale molecular dynamics simulations of montmorillonite nanoparticles …

Cooperation and competition of basepairing and electrostatic interactions in mixtures of DNA nanostars and polylysine
Phase separation in biomolecular mixtures can result from multiple physical interactions, which may act either complementarily or antagonistically. In the case of protein--nucleic acid mixtures, charge plays a key role but can have contrasting effects on phase behavior. Attractive electrostatic interactions between oppositely charged macromolecules are screened by added salt, reducing the driving force for coacervation. By contrast, base-pairing interactions between nucleic acids are diminished…

De novo design of alpha-helical peptide amphiphiles repairing fragmented collagen type I via supramolecular co-assembly
The hierarchical triple-helix structure of collagen type I, Col I, is essential for extracellular matrix support and integrity. However, current reconstruction strategies face challenges such as chain mismatch, preventing proper fibril formation. Here, we report a supramolecular co-assembly strategy using a de novo-designed alpha-helical peptide amphiphile (APA) of just seven amino acids. The APA features a hydrophobic palmitic acid tail, which stabilizes the helical structure and promotes co-a…

Entropy governs the structure and reactivity of water dissociation under electric fields
The response of water to electric fields is critical to the performance and stability of electrochemical devices, and the selectivity of enzymatic, atmospheric, and organic reactions. A key process in this context is the water (auto)dissociation reaction (WD), which governs acid-base aqueous chemistry and shapes reaction rates and mechanisms. Despite its significance, the thermodynamics of the WD reaction in electrified environments remains poorly understood. Here, we investigate the WD reactio…

Curriculum Learning for Biological Sequence Prediction: The Case of De Novo Peptide Sequencing
Peptide sequencing-the process of identifying amino acid sequences from mass spectrometry data-is a fundamental task in proteomics. Non-Autoregressive Transformers (NATs) have proven highly effective for this task, outperforming traditional methods. Unlike autoregressive models, which generate tokens sequentially, NATs predict all positions simultaneously, leveraging bidirectional context through unmasked self-attention. However, existing NAT approaches often rely on Connectionist Temporal Clas…

CBTOPE2: An improved method for predicting of conformational B-cell epitopes in an antigen from its primary sequence
In 2009, our group pioneered a novel method CBTOPE for predicting conformational B-cell epitopes in a protein from its amino acid sequence, which received extensive citations from the scientific community. In a recent study, Cia et al. (2023) evaluated the performance of conformational B-cell epitope prediction methods on a well-curated dataset, revealing that most approaches, including CBTOPE, exhibited poor performance. One plausible cause of this diminished performance is that available meth…

Unavailability of experimental 3D structural data on protein folding dynamics and necessity for a new generation of structure prediction methods in this context
Motivation: Protein folding is a dynamic process during which a protein's amino acid sequence undergoes a series of 3-dimensional (3D) conformational changes en route to reaching a native 3D structure; the resulting 3D structural conformations are called folding intermediates. While data on native 3D structures are abundant, data on 3D structures of non-native intermediates remain sparse, due to limitations of current technologies for experimental determination of 3D structures. Yet, analyzing …
