Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Phase and Structural Transitions in Model Lung Surfactant Mixtures.
(2010)
Lung surfactant (LS) is a complex mixture of lipids and proteins that reduces and regulates the surface tension in the lungs, thereby decreasing the work of breathing. A thorough understanding of LS function is critical ...
Regulating Gene Expression Through DNA Mechanics: Tightly Looped DNA Represses Transcription.
(2010)
It is now widely accepted that the mechanical state of DNA can play a major role in regulating the activity of RNA polymerase (RNAP). Not only have the global levels of supercoiling been shown to regulate transcription, ...
