Theoretical study of phase-controlled optical absorption, gain and group index in double-quantum-dot molecule
Through solving the Schrodinger equations in the steady state, the optical absorption, gain and group index of a double-quantum-dot molecule (DQDM) system are investigated theoretically. It is demonstrated tha...

Open AccessInvestigation of Hexagonal Mesoporous Silica-Supported Composites for Trace Moisture Adsorption
Moisture control is an important part of effective maintenance program for gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). Herein, hexagonal mesoporous silica (HMS) materials were synthesized by adopting dodecylamine as a str...

Investigation by MD simulation of the key residues related to substrate-binding and heme-release in human ferrochelatase
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of three models based on the crystal structure of the E343K variant of human ferrochelatase were performed in this study. The “open” and “closed” conformations of the enzyme...

Is it possible for Fe2+ to approach protoporphyrin IX from the side of Tyr-13 in Bacillus subtilis ferrochelatase? An answer from QM/MM study
We previously reported the insertion process of the ferrous ion into the protoporphyrin IX from the side of the residue His-183 (J. Inorg. Biochem. 103 (2009) 1680–1686). Sellers et al. suggested that the ferrous...
