Skrbic T, Giacometti A, Hoang T, Maritan A, Banavar J
Biomolecules . 2024 Jul; 14(7). PMID: 39062519
The molecular machines of life, proteins, are made up of twenty kinds of amino acids, each with distinctive side chains. We present a geometrical analysis of the protrusion statistics of...

Polymers (Basel) . 2024 Feb; 16(4). PMID: 38399880
Linear chain molecules play a central role in polymer physics with innumerable industrial applications. They are also ubiquitous constituents of living cells. Here, we highlight the similarities and differences between...

Proteins . 2024 Jan; 93(1):341-358. PMID: 38288638
We have shown recently that the notion of poking pairwise interactions along a chain provides a unifying framework for understanding the formation of both secondary and the tertiary protein structure...

Proteins . 2023 Aug; 93(1):160-175. PMID: 37605446
Recently, we presented a framework for understanding protein structure based on the idea that simple constructs of holding hands or touching of objects can be used to rationalize the common...

Proteins . 2023 Aug; 93(1):145-159. PMID: 37565735
We present a model, based on symmetry and geometry, for proteins. Using elementary ideas from mathematics and physics, we derive the geometries of discrete helices and sheets. We postulate a...

Volkov I, Tovo A, Anfodillo T, Rinaldo A, Maritan A, Banavar J
PNAS Nexus . 2023 Jan; 1(1):pgac008. PMID: 36712800
We demonstrate that when power scaling occurs for an individual tree and in a forest, there is great resulting simplicity notwithstanding the underlying complexity characterizing the system over many size...

Phys Rev E . 2021 Aug; 104(1):L012101. PMID: 34412247
Chain molecules play a key role in the polymer field and in living cells. Our focus is on a new homopolymer model of a linear chain molecule subject to an...

Phys Rev E . 2021 Aug; 104(1-1):014402. PMID: 34412233
The native state structures of globular proteins are stable and well packed indicating that self-interactions are favored over protein-solvent interactions under folding conditions. We use this as a guiding principle...

Phys Rev E . 2021 Aug; 104(1):L012501. PMID: 34412214
We present the results of a quantitative study of the phase behavior of a model polymer chain with side spheres using two independent computer simulation techniques. We find that the...

Kocillari L, Olson M, Suweis S, Rocha R, Lovison A, Cardin F, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2021 May; 118(22). PMID: 34039710
Shaping global water and carbon cycles, plants lift water from roots to leaves through xylem conduits. The importance of xylem water conduction makes it crucial to understand how natural selection...
