Proteins interacting with cell membranes play a vital role in countless biological processes, from how cells communicate to ...

A new open-source model of brain metabolism—the most complex ever generated—has shown how altering key chemicals could ...

Model allowed researchers to better understand the complex molecular mechanisms that determine the robustness, flexibility, ...

Supercritical water, a mysterious state where water behaves like both a liquid and gas, has long puzzled scientists.

Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Cincinnati achieved a ...

Molecular Dynamics Simulations are grounded in classical mechanics, particularly Newton’s laws of motion, to predict how particles move within a system. The force acting on each atom is calculated ...

The ball-and-stick and first space-filling model show that sucrose is a large molecule made up of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Sucrose has many O–H bonds which are polar. These polar areas are shown ...

Sunburns and aging skin are obvious effects of exposure to harmful UV rays, tobacco smoke and other carcinogens. But the effects aren't just skin deep. Inside the body, DNA is literally being torn ...

In the water molecule, the oxygen and hydrogen atoms share electrons in covalent bonds. There are a total of 10 protons and 10 electrons, so the water molecule is neutral. The electron cloud model ...

When exposed to high temperatures and pressure, water enters a state in which liquid and gas can no longer be distinguished. For a long time, there has been controversy about how this looks like on a ...

Chemists identify a single molecule that naturally tiles in nonrepeating patterns, which could help build materials with novel electronic properties.
