From ATP to electron transfer: Electrostatics and free-energy transduction in nitrogenase
Article Abstract:
The free-energy transformations that occur in nitrogenase based upon theoretical analysis of structural and electrochemical data is described using electrostatic and thermodynamic analysis. It is observed that electrostatic interactions play an important role in the substitution of MgADP by MgATP upon reduction of the [Fe4Se4]S4(super cys) cluster in the Fe protein.

Simulation of scanning tunneling microscope images of 1,3-cyclohexadiene bound to a silicon surface
Article Abstract:
Scanning tunneling microscope (STM) images of 1,3-cyclohexadiene bound to silicon are interpreted in a study using a nonequilibrium Green' function method. Findings suggest that a pi* orbital is responsible for the empty state STM images of the carbon--carbon double bond that is observed experimentally.
