The low-temperature dynamic crossover phenomenon in protein hydration water: simulations vs experiments
Article Abstract:
Molecular dynamics have shown that the low-temperature crossover phenomenon is because of the average translational motion of all the water molecules in the hydration layer, not due to the long-range proton diffusion coupled to the motion of the Bjerrum-type defects. Neutron scattering and NMR have quantitatively accounted for the temperature dependence of the experimental data from a realistic powder model.

Amphiphilic self-assemblies decorated by nucleobases
Article Abstract:
The aggregation behavior of different 1-R,2-R-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidyl-nucleosides, where R = 8 (Di[C.sub.8]PN) or R = DLPN and N is either adenosine or uridine, a complementary pair in RNA) is compared. The nucleic functionalization has provided an additional parameter to control self-assembly through specific interactions among the polar heads and have altered the aggregation thresholds.
