Kinetics of solute adsorption at solid/solution interfaces: A theoretical development of the empirical pseudo-first and pseudo-second order kinetic rate equations, based on applying the statistical rate theory of interfacial transport

Article Abstract:

The kinetics of solid/solution adsorption processes and the first theoretical development of the equations based on applying the new fundamental approach to kinetics of interfacial transport called the Statistical Rate Theory are presented. Presenting exhaustive model investigations shows the features of the general equation and presenting a quantitative analysis tests the applicability of that equation.

Brownian dynamics simulations of binding mRNA cap analogues to eIF4E protein

Article Abstract:

The binding of five analogues of the 5E-end mRNA cap to the eukaryotic intiation factor eIF4E is simulated by means of Brownian dynamics methods. The study indicates that the kinetics of binding 5E-mRNA caps can be explained by referring to the Brownian motion of the particles with the electrostatic steering of the ligands toward the eIF4E binding site.

An efficient Brownian dynamics method for evaluating inertial dynamic effects on diffusion-influenced reactions

Article Abstract:

A very efficient Brownian dynamics (BD) method for evaluating inertial dynamic effects on diffusion-influenced reaction kinetics is presented. The study concluded that the reaction between two identical hardsphere reactants, rates decreases as the mass of the reactant increases but with the product of its size and diffusion constant fixed.
