New catalytic mechanisms in carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) unveiled by computer simulation

Professor Carme RoviraDepartment of Inorganic and Organic Chemistry & Institute of Computational and Theoretical Chemistry (IQTCUB), University of Barcelona Join the Seminar here Abstract: Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), such as glycoside hydrolases and glycosyltransferases, constitute the main machinery for the degradation, synthesis and modification of carbohydrates in nature. They have a myriad of industrial and biotechnological […]

Death Spikes and Healthy Bumps: Nanostars for drug delivery

William Morton, Department of Materials Venue: G20, Royal School of Mines Click here to join the Seminar Abstract: Understanding how nanoparticles navigate biological barriers is crucial for determining their use as drug delivery agents. Cellular uptake has thus far been the main metric of determining the design of a successful nanoparticle. A mechanistic understanding of […]

TYC Lunchtime Seminar: Engineering and predicting the electronic and optical properties of porphyrin-based structures

Victor H Posligua HernandezDeaprtment of Chemistry Abstract: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising photocatalytic materials due to their high surface area and tuneability of their electronic structure. We  will discuss how to engineer the band structures and optical properties of a family of two-dimensional porphyrin-based MOFs, consisting of M-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin structures (M-TCPP, where M = Zn or Co) […]
