García, Yasser B. Ruiz-Blanco, Yovani Marrero-Ponce et al.     The control of electromechanical responses within bonding regions is essential to face frontier challenges in nanotechnologies, such as molecular electronics and biotechnology. …             The Important Role of Halogen Bond in Substrate Selectivity of Enzymatic Catalysis ▶     Shuiqin Jiang, Lujia Zhang, Dongbin Cui et al.     The use of halogen bond is widespread in drug discovery, design, and clinical trials, but is overlooked in drug biosynthesis. Here, the role of halogen bond in the …             High-Throughput Design of Two-Dimensional Electron Gas Systems Based on Polar/Nonpolar Perovskite Oxide Heterostructures ▶     Kesong Yang, Safdar Nazir, Maziar Behtash et al.     The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at the interface between two insulating oxides such as LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 (STO) is of fundamental and practical interest because of …             Aptamer-conjugated live human immune cell based biosensors for the accurate detection of C-reactive protein ▶     Jangsun Hwang, Youngmin Seo, Yeonho Jo et al.     C-reactive protein (CRP) is a pentameric protein that is present in the bloodstream during inflammatory events, e.g., liver failure, leukemia, and/or bacterial infection. The …             Mechanism and comparison of needle-type non-thermal direct and indirect atmospheric pressure plasma jets on the degradation of dyes ▶     Pankaj Attri, Maksudbek Yusupov, Ji Hoon Park et al.     Purified water supply for human use, agriculture and industry is the major global priority nowadays. The advanced oxidation process based on atmospheric pressure non-thermal …             A fragment-based approach applied to a highly flexible target: Insights and challenges towards the inhibition of HSP70 isoforms ▶     Alan M. Jones, Isaac M. Westwood, James D. Osborne et al.     The heat shock protein 70s (HSP70s) are molecular chaperones implicated in many cancers and of significant interest as targets for novel cancer therapies. Several HSP70 …             Nonlinear backbone torsional pair correlations in proteins ▶     Shiyang Long, Pu Tian     Protein allostery requires dynamical structural correlations. Physical origin of which, however, remain elusive despite intensive studies during last two and half decades. Based …             Degradation of Redox-Sensitive Proteins including Peroxiredoxins and DJ-1 is Promoted by Oxidation-induced Conformational Changes and Ubiquitination ▶     In-Kang Song, Jae-Jin Lee, Jin-Hwan Cho et al.     Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key molecules regulating various cellular processes. However, what the cellular targets of ROS are and how their functions are regulated is …             Erosion protection conferred by whole human saliva, dialysed saliva, and artificial saliva ▶     T. Baumann, J. Kozik, A. Lussi et al.     During dental erosion, tooth minerals are dissolved, leading to a softening of the surface and consequently to irreversible surface loss. Components from human saliva form a …             Light-Controlled ZrO2 Surface Hydrophilicity ▶     Aida V. Rudakova, Maria V. Maevskaya, Alexei V. Emeline et al.     In recent years many works are aimed at finding a method of controllable switching between hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of a surface. The hydrophilic surface state is …             Nano-volcanic Eruption of Silver ▶     Shih-kang Lin, Shijo Nagao, Emi Yokoi et al.     Silver (Ag) is one of the seven metals of antiquity and an important engineering material in the electronic, medical, and chemical industries because of its unique noble and …             The Impact of Li Grain Size on Coulombic Efficiency in Li Batteries ▶     B. Layla Mehdi, Andrew Stevens, Jiangfeng Qian et al.     One of the most promising means to increase the energy density of state-of-the-art lithium Li-ion batteries is to replace the graphite anode with a Li metal anode. While the …             Elastic Scattering Spectroscopy (ESS): an Instrument-Concept for Dynamics of Complex (Bio-) Systems From Elastic Neutron Scattering ▶     Antonio Benedetto, Gordon J. Kearley     A new type of neutron-scattering spectroscopy is presented that is designed specifically to measure dynamics in bio-systems that are difficult to obtain in any other way. The …             Hydrogen-bonding Interactions between Apigenin and Ethanol/Water: A Theoretical Study ▶     Yan-Zhen Zheng, Yu Zhou, Qin Liang et al.     In this work, hydrogen-bonding interactions between apigenin and water/ethanol were investigated from a theoretical perspective using quantum chemical calculations.
