Multiscale Analysis of Macromolecular Systems
… techniques. The relevant dynamics in complex macromolecular systems correspond to timescales longer than what can be sampled using MD with standard computational resources. In addition, even if Boltzmann-distributed sampling can be achieved, the definition of good reaction coordinates …

Quantification of myocardial macromolecular transport
… is little quantitative data on the rates of macromolecular transport inside the myocardium. A porcine model was used in this work as it is most closely similar to humans in size, structure and morphology. Using a technique previously developed in this laboratory to quantify the distribution …

Transient electric birefringence of macromolecular systems
… electrical and geometrical properties of three macromolecular systems. An apparatus is described in which the birefringence could be measured when d. c. electric field pulses (of duration 1μs to 5s and strength up to 50 KV/cm) and a. c. electric field pulses (of duration greater than 5 ms, of …

Photo-reactive Surfactant and Macromolecular Supramolecular Structures
… photo-curable architectures are applicable in macromolecular architectures, to gain a fundamental understanding of how hydrogen bonding associations influence the photo-reactivity of functionalized acrylic copolymers. Novel hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives (HMPSAs) were developed from …

Heterogeneous catalyzed macromolecular hydrogenations in oscillating systems
… and heterogeneous catalysts for multi-phase macromolecular reactions was carried out. A monolith-containing square die with Pd/Al2O3 catalysts was used to successfully hydrogenate poly(styrene) (PS). The inherent pulse behavior of the extruder was found to be sufficient to approach intrinsic …

Understanding Allosteric Arginine Mutations Using Macromolecular Rate Theory
… for these deviations from Arrhenius behaviour. Macromolecular rate theory (MMRT) accounts for these deviations with the introduction of the activation heat capacity (Δ𝐶𝑃‡) to the rate equation. The activation heat capacity is a consequence of the restriction in conformational freedom along the …

Molecular Biophysics of Mammalian and Fungal Macromolecular Assemblies
… allows for the collection of data reflecting the macromolecular organization of an ordered structure, and even intramolecular interactions of nuclei. This thesis details two projects that utilized NMR to gain a higher understanding of two macromolecular assemblies; each project has been divided …

Study of macromolecular interactions using computational solvent mapping
The term "binding hot spots" refers to regions of a protein surface with large contributions to the binding free energy. Computational solvent mapping serves as an analog to the major experimental techniques developed for the identification of such hot spots using X-ray and nuclear magnetic …

Characterising the Macromolecular Interactions between Proteins and Polysaccharides
… major focus of this thesis is to investigate the macromolecular interactions between model protein βLgA and model polysaccharide pectin when they were oppositely charged and the microstructures of the complexes formed between the two biopolymers. Firstly, interactions between βLgA and pectins were …

Macromolecular design for modulation of amyloid fibrillar assembly
Amyloid protein aggregation is notorious for its association with many devastating human diseases such as AIDS, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and prion diseases. Scientists have made significant progress in designing modulators which prevent amyloid formation and provide potential therapeutics for …

DNA Constraints for Rational Control of Macromolecular Conformation
The DNA double helix is stable and rigid, making it an ideal nanoscale construction element. Duplex DNA has been used as a static framework to organize DNA, proteins, or nanoparticles, and dynamic DNA nanomachines have been built. However, assemblies in which DNA controls the intramolecular states …

Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Macromolecular Complexes
… molecular dynamics simulations of large macromolecular complexes on relevant time scales, using a simplified, or ""coarse-grained"" description. The method developed for this purpose, called shape-based coarse-graining, is applied to a number of systems. Simulations of several viruses, …
