Opis:
The literature devoted to numerical investigation of adsorption of heavy metal ions on carbon nanotubes is scarce. In this paper molecular dynamics is used to simulate the adsorption process and to investigate the effect of the infl uencing parameters on the rate of adsorption. The predictions of the molecular dynamics simulation show that the adsorption process is improved with increasing the temperature, pH of solution, the mass of nanotubes, and surface modifi cation of CNT using hydroxyl and carboxyl functional groups. The results predicted by the model are compared with the experimental results available in the literature; the close agreement validates the accuracy of the predictions. This study reveals that the water layers around the carbon nanotubes and the interaction energies play important roles in the adsorption process. The study also shows that electrostatic force controls the attraction of zinc ions on the nanotube sidewall.

Opis:
Modern computational chemistry offers a wide variety of methods allowing us to investigate very complex systems. In the current study, we would like to focus on ab initio and classical molecular dynamics to show their applications in our research. Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics (CPMD) was carried out to study compounds possessing intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Our simulations were performed in vacuum, in solvent and in crystalline phase. It is well known that intramolecular hydrogen bonding stabilizes 3D structure of molecules. The strength of the bonding and its features are influenced by inductive and steric effects. Our short overview on CPMD application to systems with intramolecular HB we start from Schiff and Mannich bases -model compounds to investigate intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Other examples reported here derive from the class of N-oxide type compounds. Special attention was devoted to another representative structure in such investigations – picolinic acid N-oxide. In some examples listed above proton transfer phenomena occurred making these compounds interesting objects for future excited state studies. Aliphatic boronic acid was used as a model example to study intermolecular hydrogen bonds based on CPMD method. Further, classical molecular dynamics was applied to investigate proteins. Here, we would like to report our results for two biomolecules. The first one is proteinase K for which the impact of mercury(II) on its catalytic center was studied. The second one is streptavidin. For the latter one its complexes with biotinylated ligands were investigated. We close our review with a paragraph describing further development and perspectives related to CPMD method.

Opis:
Klasyczna dynamika molekularna MD jest jedną z technik symulacji komputerowych wieloatomowych lub wielocząsteczkowych układów. Pozwala na badanie struktury oraz właściwości zarówno materiałów krystalicznych, jak i amorficznych. Opiera się na rozwiązywaniu numerycznym klasycznych równań ruchu. Nie tylko uzupełnia badania eksperymentalne, ale jest również narzędziem pozwalającym na badanie budowy materiałów na poziomie nieosiągalnym konwencjonalnymi technikami. W celu przedstawienia klasycznej dynamiki molekularnej wykonano symulacje dwóch szkieł 80SiO2-20Na2O i 85SiO2-15Na2O [%mol]. Otrzymane wyniki dobrze zgadzały się z obecnym stanem wiedzy. Wykonane symulacje świadczą o tym, że technika ta jest niezwykle użyteczna przy poznawaniu struktury szkieł. Wykorzystując tę technikę, można przewidywać wpływ modyfikatorów na więźbę szkła, a przez to możliwe jest wskazywanie kierunku dalszych badań oraz optymalizacja składów chemicznych.
Molecular dynamics MD is one of computer simulation methods of multiatomic or multimolecular systems. It allows to examination of structure and properties both crystalline and amorphous materials. This technique consists of the numerical solution of the classical equation of motion. It complements not only experimental methods but also it is tool make possible examination of material structure on the unavailable level for conventional methods. In order to introduce to molecular dynamics, the simulations of two glasses 80SiO2‑20Na2O and 85SiO2-15Na2O [%mol] were performed. Obtained results corresponds well to the actual state of knowledge. Performed simulation testify that this technique is a very useful to examine glass structure. Using this method, it is possible to predict influence of modifiers on glass network, it’s make possible indication research direction and optimization of chemical composition.

Doświadczalnie (waga Langmuird) i teoretycznie (dynamika molekularna) badano oddziaływania fizykochemiczne między benzo[a]pirenem (BAP) i głównym składnikiem surfaktantu płucnego, DPPC. Odnotowano zmiany dynamicznego napięcia powierzchniowego i ściśliwości filmu DPPC na powierzchni woda - powietrze, które wyjaśniono w oparciu o mechanizm wbudowywania się molekuł BAP w monowarstwę DPPC. Przyjmując, że podobne zjawiska przebiegają w naturalnym układzie surfaktantu płucnego, wyniki sugerują jedną z możliwych przyczyn toksyczności spalin silników Diesla.
Physicochemical interactions between benzo[a]pyrene (BAP) and a basic constituent of lung surfactant, DPPC, were studied experimentally (Lang-muir balance) and theoretically (molecular dynamic approach). Changes in dynamic surface tension and compressibility of DPPC film at air - water interface were observed and explained by the incorporation of BAP molecules into DPPC monolayer. Similar phenomena can be of importance during oscillations of lung surface during breathing, so the results suggest a potential mechanism of health effects from diesel exhaust gases inhalation.

Opis:
In the current article we would like to summarize our research shedding light onto properties of intramolecular hydrogen bonds present in N-oxide quinoline derivatives. The compounds for the current study were chosen to contain diverse types of hydrogen bonds. Therefore, in the current study we analyze three kinds of hydrogen bonding and their properties. It is well known, that the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonds stabilizes conformations of molecules. Substituent effects (inductive and steric) influence the strength of the H-bonding as well as its features. Moreover, the intramolecular hydrogen bond in the studied N-oxides belongs to the family of resonance assisted hydrogen bonds (RAHB). Our short overview presents the summary of results obtained for twelve N-oxides of quinoline derivatives. Quantum-chemical simulations were performed on the basis of static models (classical DFT and MP2 approaches) as well as ab initio molecular dynamics (Car-Parrinello MD). The metadynamics method was applied to reproduce the maps of free energy for the motion of the bridged proton. The computations were performed in the gas and in the crystalline phases. Electronic ground state is a natural framework in which chemical compounds exist most of the time. However, in many chemical species we observe a spontaneous internal reorganization of their chemical bonds and atoms e.g. proton transfer phenomenon and the appearance of tautomeric forms already in the ground state. Therefore, it was interesting to investigate some N-oxides in the excited electron state knowing that they exhibit excited- state-induced proton transfer (ESIPT effect). At the end of the article we draw some conclusions related to the intramolecular H-bond properties present in the discussed N-oxides of quinoline derivatives.

Opis:
The hydrogen bond is one of the most important and interesting phenomena in nature. In this publication we will shed light on the discovery of hydrogen bond and a time evolution of its definition in the last 100 years. Both structural and spectroscopic parameters of the hydrogen bond will be discussed. A special focus will be given to the latest IUPAC definition of the hydrogen bond and its consequences to scientific research. The main aim of this study is to highlight theoretical studies based on first principles calculations and molecular dynamics simulations which not only support experimental results but also provide parameters which are crucial to understand the nature of hydrogen bonds. Particular attention will be given to methods and theoretical ideas used in the computational studies of hydrogen bonds. Utilizing static DFT/ab initio calculations and molecular dynamics simulations enables comparison of different binding energies and studying time evolution of the hydrogen-bonded molecular system on the atomistic level. We will discuss time-resolved properties of weak intermolecular hydrogen bonds, using as an example C-H···F containing model systems, namely F3CH*(HF)n molecular complexes and (F3CH)2-4 aggregates.

Opis:
The structure of thin water films during the rupture process was investigated by a new approach, which combines molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) with image processing analysis. The analysis procedure was developed to convert MDS trajectories to readable 3D images. The water films were studied at different thicknesses by MDS to determine the critical thickness at which the film ruptures. The potential energy of each specific film thickness during the simulation time was analyzed, and the results showed that the potential energy of stable films remained unchanged while the potential energy kept decreasing for films which ruptured during the simulation time. By applying the new procedure, the molecular porosity, which is defined as the void fraction between the volume of molecular pores in the water film and the total volume of the water film, was calculated. The results of molecular porosity for different film thicknesses during the simulation time suggested a critical molecular porosity as 49%. In other words, stable films have a molecular porosity of less than 49%. If a water film has a molecular porosity greater than 49%, rupture occurs during the simulation.

Opis:
Disulfide bonds, despite the advances of the computational methods, are underrepresented in theoretical chemistry and the role of disulfide bonds is of ten diminished in bioinformatical studies. Most of the molecular modeling tools do not allow studying the process of disulfide bond formation and breaking, which is equally important as the sole presence of disulfide bonds in proteins and peptides. The UNRES (UNited RESidue) coarse-grained force field allows treating disulfide bonds in two ways: as static (formed or broken in the simulation) or dynamic (all specified cysteine residues can form and break disulfide bonds during simulation). The comparison between those two approaches of disulfide-bond treatment is presented for protein folding on the example of four small β - and α + β proteins with one, two, three and four disulfide bonds. The results clearly show that proper disulfide bond treatment is important in simulations and significantly enhances the quality of folded structures.

Opis:
Even though most of the existing studies of gold nanoparticles indicate that they are safe to use, some researchers show that specific forms of nanoparticles (e.g. nanorods) are able to destroy the cell membrane and very small nanoparticles (below 37nm in diameter) in high concentration have been deadly for mice. We used the Amber12 package to perform a series of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of gold nanoparticles with various small proteins important for the human body and a DNA molecule to determine the interactions and consequently the possible toxicity of gold clusters. Lennard-Jones interactions were used to simulate the behavior of gold nanoparticles with biomacromolecules in water with an optimal set of parameters (selected based on a comparison of MD structures and structures computed by DFT). Gold nanoparticle structures were obtained as a result of MD simulations from an initial structure, where gold atoms were at a distance of 10 ̊ A from one another. A predicted BDNA structure of a palindromic sequence‘ CGCATGAGTACGC ’ and a 2 JYK molecule were used as representatives of the DNA molecule. The preliminary results show that, in particular small gold nanoparticles, interact strongly with proteins and DNA by creating stable complexes, which can then cause harmful reactions to the human body when present in high concentration.

The equilibrium structures at elevated temperatures were obtained, which show that the stacking behaviour of the molecules does not change with temperature. The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) values were calculated by linear fitting methods, and the results show that the CTE values are close to the experimental results and are anisotropic. The total energies of the cells expanding along each single crystallographic axis were calculated by the periodic density functional theory method, indicating that the energy change rates are anisotropic, and correlation equations of the energy change vs. CTE values were established. The essence of the anisotropy of the explosive crystal’s thermal expansion was compared and elucidated.

Opis:
Physiological and pathological roles of cysteine proteases make them important targets for inhibitor development. Although highly potent inhibitors of this group of enzymes are known, their major drawback is a lack of sufficient specificity. Two cysteine protease covalent inhibitors, viz. (i) Z-RL-deoxo-V-peptide-epoxysuccinyl hybrid, and (ii) Z-RLVG-methyl-, have been developed and modeled in the catalytic pocket of papain, an archetypal thiol protease. A number of configurations have been generated and relaxed for each system using the AMBER force field. The catalytic pockets S3 and S4 appear rather elusive in view of the observed inhibitors' flexibility. This suggest rather limited chances for the development of selective structure-based inhibitors of thiol proteases, designed to exploit differences in the structure of catalytic pockets of various members of this family.

Molecular dynamics simulations with condensed-phase optimized molecular potentials for atomistic simulation studies force field are performed to investigate the structure, equation of state, and mechanical properties of high energetic material pentaerythritol tetranitrate. The equilibrium structural parameters, pressure-volume relationship and elastic constants at ambient conditions agree excellently with experiments. In addition, fitting the pressure-volume data to the Birch-Murnaghan or Murnaghan equation of state, the bulk modulus B₀ and its first pressure derivative B'₀ are obtained. Moreover, the elastic constants are calculated in the pressure range of 0-10 GPa at room temperature and in the temperature range of 200-400 K at the standard pressure, respectively. By the Voigt-Reuss-Hill approximation, the mechanical properties such as bulk modulus B, shear modulus G, and the Young modulus E are also obtained successfully. The predicted physical properties under temperature and pressure can provide powerful guidelines for the engineering application and further experimental investigations.

Opis:
The oligomeric metalloenzymes protein phosphatases dephosphorylate OH groups of Ser/Thr or Tyr residues of proteins whose actions depend on the phosphorus signal. The catalytic units of Ser/Thr protein phosphatases 1, 2A and 2B (PP1c, PP2Ac and PP2Bc, respectively), which exhibit about 45% sequence similarity, have their active centers practically identical. This feature strongly suggests that the unknown structure of PP2Ac could be successfully homology-modeled from the known structures of PP1c and/or PP2Bc. Initially, a theoretical model of PP1c was built, including a phosphate and a metal dication in its catalytic site. The latter was modeled, together with a structural hydroxyl anion, as a triangular pseudo-molecule (Zno or Mno), composed of two metal cations (double Zn2+ or Mn2+, respectively) and the OH- group. To the free PP1c two inhibitor sequences R29RRRPpTPAMLFR40 of DARPP-32 and R30RRRPpTPATLVLT42 of Inhibitor-1, and two putative substrate sequences LRRApSVA and QRRQRKpRRTI were subsequently docked. In the next step, a free PP2Ac model was built via homology re-modeling of the PP1c template and the same four sequences were docked to it. Thus, together, 20 starting model complexes were built, allowing for combination of the Zno and Mno pseudo-molecules, free enzymes and the peptide ligands docked in the catalytic sites of PP1c and PP2Ac. All models were subsequently subjected to 250-300 ps molecular dynamics using the AMBER 5.0 program. The equilibrated trajectories of the final 50 ps were taken for further analyses. The theoretical models of PP1c complexes, irrespective of the dication type, exhibited increased mobilities in the following residue ranges: 195-200, 273-278, 287-209 for the inhibitor sequences and 21-25, 194-200, 222-227, 261, 299-302 for the substrate sequences. Paradoxically, the analogous PP2Ac models appeared much more stable in similar simulations, since only their "prosegment" residues 6-10 and 14-18 exhibited an increased mobility in the inhibitor complexes while no areas of increased mobility were found in the substrate complexes. Another general observation was that the complexes with Mn dications were more stable than those with Zn dications for both PP1c and PP2Ac units.

The paper is dedicated to a molecular dynamics (MD) study of the structure of partially reduced lead-silicate glass of composition 1Pb 1PbO 1SiO2. The simulations have been performed in the constant volume regime, using a two-body potential (Born-Mayer repulsive forces, and Coulomb forces due to full ionic charges). The system was initially prepared as a well equilibrated hot melt, and then slowly cooled down to 300K. The information on short-range correlations were obtained in a conventional way (from pair and angular distribution functions), while the medium-range order was studied via cation-anion ring analysis. In the paper, the short- and medium-range order in the simulated system is discussed and compared with the structure of a glassy completely reduced system, i.e. 2Pb 1SiO2 and unreduced one, i.e. 2PbO 1SiO2 glass.

Opis:
Pyrimidoacridinetriones (PATs) are a new group of highly active antitumor compounds. It seems reasonable to assume that, like for some other acridine derivatives, intercalation into DNA is a necessary, however not a sufficient condition for antitumor activity of these compounds. Rational design of new compounds of this chemotype requires knowledge about the structure of the intercalation complex, as well as about interactions responsible for its stability. Computer simulation techniques such as molecular dynamics (MD) may provide valuable information about these problems. The results of MD simulations performed for three rationally selected PATs are presented in this paper. The compounds differ in the number and position of side chains. Each of the compounds was simulated in two systems: i) in water, and ii) in the intercalation complex with the dodecamer duplex d(GCGCGCGCGCGC)2. The orientation of the side chain in relation to the ring system is determined by the position of its attachment. Orientation of the ring system inside the intercalation cavity depends on the number and position of side chain(s). The conformations of the side chain(s) of all PATs studied in the intercalation complex were found to be very similar to those observed in water.
