Evaluation of Formation Enthalpies of C3 and C4 Brominated Hydrocarbons: Bringing Together Classical Thermodynamics, Modern Mass-Spectroscopy, and High-Level Ab Initio Calculations

February 7, 2024
Author(s)
Eugene Paulechka, Andrei F. Kazakov
The enthalpies of formation of brominated C3–C4 hydrocarbons were critically evaluated using experimental data sources ranging from classical thermodynamics methods to modern high-precision mass spectrometry and reported in a time span of a century. The

Divalent ions as mediators of carbonylation in cardiac myosin binding protein C

November 1, 2023

Christina Bergonzo, Baikuntha Aryal, Ashutosh Rao
The dosing and efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs can be limited by toxicity caused by off-pathway reactions. One hypothesis for how such toxicity arises is via metal-catalyzed oxidative damage of cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyBP-C) found in cardiac

Effects of Glycans and Hinge on Dynamics in the IgG1 Fc

Christina Bergonzo, J. Todd Hoopes, Zvi Kelman, David Travis Gallagher
The crystallizable fragment (Fc) domain of immunoglobulin subclass IgG1 antibodies is engineered for a wide variety of pharmaceutical applications. Two important structural variables in Fc constructs are the hinge region connecting the Fc to the antigen

Prediction of Sustainable Aviation Fuel Properties for Liquid Hydrocarbons from Hydrotreating Biomass Catalytic Fast Pyrolysis Derived Organic Intermediates

April 11, 2023

Suphat Watanasiri, Kristiina Iisa, Eugene Paulechka, Earl Christensen, Chris Muzny, Abhijit Dutta
Catalytic fast pyrolysis (CFP) of wood, woody residues, and agricultural waste has the potential to produce organic liquid intermediates that can be hydroprocessed to sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). In this article we present results of property

Conformational dynamics of the hepatitis B virus pre-genomic RNA on multiple time scales: implications for viral replication

September 30, 2022
Author(s)
Lucasz T. Olenginski, Wojciech K. Kasprzak, Christina Bergonzo, Bruce A. Shapiro, Theodore Kwaku Dayie
HBV replication is initiated by the binding of polymerase (P) to epsilon (ε), a 61 nucleotide (nt) cis -acting regulatory stem-loop RNA located at the 5′-end of the pregenomic RNA (pgRNA). This interaction triggers protein-primed reverse transcription and

PrepareForLeap: An automated tool for fast PDB-to-parameter generation

March 23, 2022
Author(s)
Daniel R. Roe, Christina Bergonzo
Setting up molecular dynamics simulations from experimentally determined structures is often complicated by a variety of factors, particularly the inclusion of carbohydrates, since these have several forms which can be linked in a variety of ways. Here we
