Chemistry

Proteins contained within the membrane of the eukaryotic cell are of significant interest for drug discovery, due to their varied functionality and external accessibility.

Understanding the kinetics behind ligand-receptor interactions is fundamental in the process of pharmacological drug design.

Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) is the concerted transfer of a proton and an electron from a single donor to a single acceptor.

The complexity of the chemistry found in the Hanford Site’s 177 radioactive waste storage tanks has been subject of research for many years.

Title: Sulfur oxidation at the center of bacterial pathogenesis

Abstract: Sulfur oxidation chemistry is an ancient mechanism by which cells mediate redox stress. Sulfur oxidation plays important roles in bacterial diseases, where…

Owing to its unique regulatory effects in many physiological and pathological processes, the study of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has attracted considerable attention in the past decade.

If organic compounds are going to be detected and quantified with high fidelity in the soil and atmosphere in the solar system, increased levels of resolution for portable instruments are needed that can withstand harsh conditions.

Mixed metal oxides are excellent candidates in catalyst synthesis since they can serve both as an active catalyst or as a substrate for other catalytic entities.

Over the last three decades, more than 90,000 metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been identified and characterized.

A rational approach to create self-replicating polymer machines that would allow for complete selectivity in chain size and sequence.

Mixed metal oxides are excellent candidates in catalyst synthesis since they can serve both as an active catalyst or as a substrate for other catalytic entities.

Recent developments in the production of microdroplets have demonstrated that chemical reactions can be accelerated by orders of magnitude.

Nuclear power, fueled by uraniumoxide, is an increasingly significant source of global energy due to its low carbon emissions and high efficiency.
