Bureau H, Hershkovits E, Quirk S, Hernandez R
J Chem Theory Comput . 2016 Mar; 12(4):2028-37. PMID: 26930270
Mechanically driven unfolding is a useful computational tool for extracting the energetics and stretching pathway of peptides. In this work, two representative β-hairpin peptides, chignolin (PDB: 1UAO ) and trpzip1...

Bureau H, Merz Jr D, Hershkovits E, Quirk S, Hernandez R
PLoS One . 2015 May; 10(5):e0127034. PMID: 25970521
Steered Molecular Dynamics (SMD) has been seen to provide the potential of mean force (PMF) along a peptide unfolding pathway effectively but at significant computational cost, particularly in all-atom solvents....

Bernier C, Petrov A, Waterbury C, Jett J, Li F, Freil L, et al.
Faraday Discuss . 2014 Oct; 169:195-207. PMID: 25340471
RiboVision is a visualization and analysis tool for the simultaneous display of multiple layers of diverse information on primary (1D), secondary (2D), and three-dimensional (3D) structures of ribosomes. The ribosome...

Petrov A, Bernier C, Gulen B, Waterbury C, Hershkovits E, Hsiao C, et al.
PLoS One . 2014 Feb; 9(2):e88222. PMID: 24505437
Accurate secondary structures are important for understanding ribosomes, which are extremely large and highly complex. Using 3D structures of ribosomes as input, we have revised and corrected traditional secondary (2°)...

Petrov A, Bernier C, Hershkovits E, Xue Y, Waterbury C, Hsiao C, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2013 Jun; 41(15):7522-35. PMID: 23771137
We present a de novo re-determination of the secondary (2°) structure and domain architecture of the 23S and 5S rRNAs, using 3D structures, determined by X-ray diffraction, as input. In...

Hershkovits E, Tannenbaum A, Tannenbaum R
J Phys Chem C Nanomater Interfaces . 2013 May; 111(33):12369-12375. PMID: 23710263
In this article, we have developed a simple model that describes the adsorption of polymer chains from a solution having a good solvent onto a reactive surface of varying curvatures....

Le Faucheur X, Hershkovits E, Tannenbaum R, Tannenbaum A
IEEE/ACM Trans Comput Biol Bioinform . 2010 Dec; 8(6):1604-19. PMID: 21173460
The local conformation of RNA molecules is an important factor in determining their catalytic and binding properties. The analysis of such conformations is particularly difficult due to the large number...

Hershkovits E, Tannenbaum A, Tannenbaum R
Macromolecules . 2010 Oct; 41(9):3190-3198. PMID: 20976029
We have investigated the adsorption of asymmetric poly(styrene-b-methyl methacrylate) block copolymers (PS-PMMA) from a selective solvent onto alumina (Al(2)O(3)) particles having variable and controllable radii. The solvent used was a...

Nunnery G, Hershkovits E, Tannenbaum A, Tannenbaum R
Langmuir . 2009 May; 25(16):9157-63. PMID: 19415910
The objective of this study was to determine the influence of polymer molecular weight and surface curvature on the adsorption of polymers onto concave surfaces. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) of various...

Hershkovits E, Tannenbaum A, Tannenbaum R
J Phys Chem B . 2008 Apr; 112(17):5317-26. PMID: 18399678
In this paper, we have developed a geometric-based scaling model that describes the adsorption of diblock copolymer chains from good solvents and theta-solvents onto reactive surfaces of varying curvatures. To...
