InternationalIce-binding proteins do the twist
A de novo designed protein with a slightly imperfect helix is able to keep ice crystals in check, Wageningen and Eindhoven researchers report in PNAS.
-
InternationalThomas Hansen – Tools for a molecular cabinet
Thomas Hansen uses computer simulations to design new tools for assembling molecules in advance.
-
InternationalPhosphorescence at room temperature ‘solved’
If you want to generate phosphorescence of organic molecules in solution, very precise tuning of the energy levels of the excited states of your molecule is required.
