The active sites of enzymes are able to activate substrates and perform chemical reactions that cannot occur in solutions. We focus on the hydrolysis reactions catalyzed by enzymes and initiated by the nucleophilic attack of the substrate's carbonyl ...
Ebola virus disease (EVD) is an acute life-threatening disease caused by highly pathogenic Ebolavirus (EBOV), with reported case fatality rates reaching 90%. There have been numerous EBOV outbreaks and epidemics since the first outbreak was reported ...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most significant public health threats today. The need for new antimicrobials against multidrug-resistant infections is growing. The development of computational models capable of predicting new drug-targe...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global threat, with species contributing significantly to difficult-to-treat infections. The Pen family of β-lactamases are produced by all spp., and their mutation or overproduction leads to the resistance of β-...
The adsorption of biomolecules on the surface of nanomaterials (NMs) is a critical determinant of their behavior, toxicity, and efficacy in biological systems. Experimental testing of these phenomena is often costly or complicated. Computational appr...

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a pivotal molecular chaperone crucial in the maturation of client proteins, positioning it as a significant target for cancer therapy. However, the design of effective Hsp90 inhibitors presents substantial challenges ...
Previous research showed that a peptide composed of three tyrosines (YYY) can turn into organic glass and cause strong adhesion between substrates via evaporation. However, the mechanisms of these processes remain unclear, and the exploration of appl...
