Flow-Driven Stretch Fluctuations Govern the Nonlinear Viscoelasticity of Elongating Associative Polymer Networks

We use nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations to verify recent tube-model predictions that associative polymer networks exhibit broad stretch fluctuations during elongational flow. Simulations further show that these fluctuating dynamics give rise to the rate-dependent extensional viscosity 𝜂 𝐸 measured in filament stretching experiments on H-bonding networks. Simulations model bivalent associative networks with a reactive bead-spring model for varying association strength and extensional strain rate. We observe that stretch fluctuations are driven by a new form of chain tumbling, where chains continually collapse and elongate as their associations break and reform within the advecting network. This produces a broad, nearly uniform distribution of chain stretch over a wide range of strain rates, manifesting as a rate-independent plateau in the extensional stress. Our results show that the nonlinear viscoelasticity of associative networks is dominated by large fluctuations in molecular response, which cannot be captured by current mean-field models.

Excited-state vibronic coherences and intramolecular charge transfer dynamics of the photoinactive cyanobacteriochrome NpF2164g5

We have characterized the excited-state structural dynamics that follow optical excitation of the photoinactive cyanobacteriochrome (CBCR) NpF2164g5 to determine the first events along the photoisomerization reaction coordinate of the phycocyanobilin (PCB) chromophore in red-to-green photoactive CBCRs. Within 25 fs of photoexcitation to the first excited singlet state, S1, a cross peak begins to develop below the diagonal of the broadband two-dimensional electronic spectrum (2DES) owing to the formation of a twisted conformation of the PCB chromophore with an enhanced intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) character. Excited-state coherent wavepacket motions, including a torsion of the methine bridge between rings C and D and the carbon–hydrogen out-of-plane (HOOP) wagging vibration, are rapidly damped as the cross peak forms. This finding supports an assignment of the torsional and HOOP modes to the reaction coordinate of a coherent nonadiabatic mechanism. The ICT process is accompanied by an ultrafast Stokes shift and rapidly damped oscillations at the torsional mode’s frequency, which are sensed by measurements of the energy gap of the cross peak using its first moment with respect to the detection frequency axis of the 2DES spectrum. Furthermore, these results have the further implication that polar side chains of nearby amino acid residues in the binding site of the PCB chromophore can manipulate the barrier height for photoisomerization in red-to-green photoactive CBCRs and in phytochromes by redistributing the π-electron density along the methine bridge between the C and D rings.

Mapping Composition Evolution through Synthesis, Purification, and Depolymerization of Random Heteropolymers

Random heteropolymers (RHPs) consisting of three or more comonomers have been routinely used to synthesize functional materials. While increasing the monomer variety diversifies the side-chain chemistry, this substantially expands the sequence space and leads to ensemble-level sequence heterogeneity. Most studies have relied on monomer composition and simulated sequences to design RHPs, but the questions remain unanswered regarding heterogeneities within each RHP ensemble and how closely these simulated sequences reflect the experimental outcomes. Here, we quantitatively mapped out the evolution of monomer compositions in four-monomer-based RHPs throughout a design-synthesis-purification-depolymerization process. By adopting a Jaacks method, we first determined 12 reactivity ratios directly from quaternary methacrylate RAFT copolymerization experiments to account for the influences of competitive monomer addition and the reversible activation/deactivation equilibria. The reliability of in silico analysis was affirmed by a quantitative agreement (<4% difference) between the simulated RHP compositions and the experimental results. Furthermore, we mapped out the conformation distribution within each ensemble in different solvents as a function of monomer chemistry, composition, and segmental characteristics via high-throughput computation based on self-consistent field theory (SCFT). These comprehensive studies confirmed monomer composition as a viable design parameter to engineer RHP-based functional materials as long as the reactivity ratios are accurately determined and the livingness of RHP synthesis is ensured.

Effect of Urea Links in the Backbone of Polyimide Aerogels

Flexible, conformal polyimide aerogels with low density, good mechanical properties and high surface areas have attracted much attention for many potential applications such as lightweight antenna substrates, insulating materials for launch vehicles, inflatable structures, aircraft or space suits. Development and improvements to fabrication of polyimide aerogel thin films have been reported over the last decade to meet the needs of many of these applications. However, most starting materials are expensive. In this research, we utilized commercially available, low cost monomers including 4,4’-bis(4-aminophenoxy)propane (BAPP) and 3,3’,4,4’-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA), and 4,4-methylene diphenyl di-isocyanate (MDI) in fabricating polyimide (PI) and polyimide-urea (PIU), which were then cross-linked with 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenoxy)benzene (TAB). It was found that the addition of MDI into the PI chains not only maintained the flexibility of the aerogel films, but also enhanced the film casting, allowing the production on pilot scale. With the capability in producing robust films at affordable cost, application of the PIU aerogel films can be expanded to terrestrial goods such as winter clothing, or pipe wrapping, etc. In addition, the presence of only a small addition of the urea links in the polyimide chains in PIU aerogels led to lower shrinkage when compared to the corresponding PI aerogels, leading to lower density

Thermal Cycle Reliability of PBGA/CCGA 717 I/Os

Status of thermal cycle test results for a nonfunctional daisy-chained peripheral ceramic column grid array (CCGA) and its plastic ball grid array (PBGA) version. both having 560 I/Os. were presented in last year's conference. Test results included environmental data for three different thermal cycle regimes (-55 C/125 C, -55 C/100 C, and -50 C /75 C). Update information on these - especially failure type for assemblies with high and low solder volumes-were presented. The thermal cycle test procedure followed those recommended IPC-9701 for tin-lead solder joint assemblies. Revision A of this specification covers guideline thermal cycle requirements for Pb-free solder joints. Some background information discussed during release of this specification with its current guideline recommendations were also presented. In a recent reliability investigation a fully populated CCGA with 717 I/Os was also considered for assembly reliability. evaluation. The functional package is a field-programmable gate array that has much higher processing power than its previous version. This new package is smaller in dimension, has no interposer, and has a thinner column wrapped with copper for reliability improvement. This paper will also present thermal cycle test results for this package assembly and its plastic version with 728 I/Os. both of which were exposed to three different cycle regimes. Two cycle profiles were those specified by IPC- 9701A for tin-lead, i.e. -55 to 100 C and -55 to 125 C and one was a cycle profile specified by Mil-Std-883, i.e.. -65 C/150 C which is generally used for ceramic hybrid packages. Per IPC-9701 A, test vehicles were built using daisy chain packages and were continuously monitored. The effects of many process and assembly variables-including corner staking commonly used for improving resistance to mechanical loading such as drop and vibration loads--were also considered as part of the test matrix. Optical photomicrographs were taken at various thermal cycle intervals to document damage progress and behavior. Representative samples of these along with cross-sectional photomicrographs at higher magnification taken by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to determine crack propagation and failure analyses for packages are also presented.

Halogenation-Dependent Effects of the Chlorosulfolipids of Ochromonas danica on Lipid Bilayers

The chlorosulfolipids are amphiphilic natural products with stereochemically complex patterns of chlorination and sulfation. Despite their role in toxic shellfish poisoning, potential pharmacological activities, and unknown biological roles, they remain understudied due to the difficulties in purifying them from natural sources. The structure of these molecules, with a charged sulfate group in the middle of the hydrophobic chain, appears incompatible with the conventional lipid bilayer structure. Questions about chlorosulfolipids remain unanswered partly due to the unavailability of structural analogues with which to conduct structure–function studies. Here, we approach this problem by combining enantioselective total synthesis and membrane biophysics. Using a combination of Langmuir pressure–area isotherms of lipid monolayers, fluorescence imaging of vesicles, mass spectrometry imaging, natural product isolation, small-angle X-ray scattering, and cryogenic electron microscopy, we show that danicalipin A (1) likely inserts into lipid bilayers in the headgroup region and alters their structure and phase behavior. Specifically, danicalipin A (1) thins the bilayer and fluidizes it, allowing even saturated lipid to form fluid bilayers. Lipid monolayers show similar fluidizing upon insertion of danicalipin A (1). Furthermore, we show that the halogenation of the molecule is critical for its membrane activity, likely due to sterically controlled conformational changes. Synthetic unchlorinated and monochlorinated analogues do not thin and fluidize lipid bilayers to the same extent as the natural product. Overall, this study sheds light on how amphiphilic small molecules interact with lipid bilayers and the importance of stereochemistry and halogenation for this interaction.

Plant-specific features of respiratory supercomplex I + III2 from Vigna radiata

Abstract The last steps of cellular respiration—an essential metabolic process in plants—are carried out by mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. This process involves a chain of multi-subunit membrane protein complexes (complexes I–V) that form higher-order assemblies called supercomplexes. Although supercomplexes are the most physiologically relevant form of the oxidative phosphorylation complexes, their functions and structures remain mostly unknown. Here we present the cryogenic electron microscopy structure of the supercomplex I + III 2 from Vigna radiata (mung bean). The structure contains the full subunit complement of complex I, including a newly assigned, plant-specific subunit. It also shows differences in the mitochondrial processing peptidase domain of complex III 2 relative to a previously determined supercomplex with complex IV. The supercomplex interface, while reminiscent of that in other organisms, is plant specific, with a major interface involving complex III 2 ’s mitochondrial processing peptidase domain and no participation of complex I’s bridge domain. The complex I structure suggests that the bridge domain sets the angle between the enzyme’s two arms, limiting large-scale conformational changes. Moreover, complex I’s catalytic loops and its response in active-to-deactive assays suggest that, in V. radiata , the resting complex adopts a non-canonical state and can sample deactive- or open-like conformations even in the presence of substrate. This study widens our understanding of the possible conformations and behaviour of complex I and supercomplex I + III 2 . Further studies of complex I and its supercomplexes in diverse organisms are needed to determine the universal and clade-specific mechanisms of respiration.

Celestial Quantum Error Correction. Part II. From qudits to celestial CFT

A holographic CFT description of asymptotically flat spacetimes inherits vacuum degeneracies and IR divergences from its gravitational dual. We devise a Quantum Error Correcting (QEC) framework to encode both effects as correctable fluctuations on the CFT dual. The framework is physically motivated by embedding a chain of qudits in the so-called Klein spacetime and then taking a continuum 𝑁 → ∞ limit. At finite 𝑁 the qudit chain 1) enjoys a discrete version of celestial symmetries and 2) supports a Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) code. The limit results in hard states with quantized BMS hair in the celestial torus forming the logical subspace, robust under errors induced by soft radiation. Technically, the construction leverages the recently studied 𝑤 1+∞ hierarchy of soft currents and its realization from a sigma model in twistor space.

Relationship between molecular structure and corrugations in self-assembled polypeptoid nanosheets revealed by cryogenic electron microscopy

Designing conformationally dynamic molecules that self-assemble into predictable nanostructures remains an important unmet challenge. This paper describes how atomic-scale cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) can be used to explore the relationship between molecular structure and self-assembly of block copolymers. We examined sheetlike micelles formed in water using a series of diblock copolypeptoids with the same hydrophilic block and three distinct crystalline hydrophobic blocks. Our cryo-TEM images revealed all the structures share nansoscale features, but differ in their intermolecular packing geometries. Different molecular arrangements, parallel and antiparallel V-shaped crystal motifs, were revealed by two-dimensional atomic-scale through-plane images. However, images from tilted samples revealed an unexpected feature when the hydrophobic polypeptoid block comprised phenyl rings with substituted bromine atoms at the para position. The nanosheets contained atomic-scale corrugations that were absent in the other systems which comprised unsubstituted aliphatic and aromatic side chains. We hypothesize that these corrugations are due to the dipolar characteristics of the brominated phenyl group and interactions between this group and water molecules.

Hole Hopping through Cytochrome P450

High-potential iron–oxo species are intermediates in the catalytic cycles of oxygenase enzymes. They can cause heme degradation and irreversible oxidation of nearby amino acids. We have proposed that there are protective mechanisms in which hole hopping from oxidized hemes through tryptophan/tyrosine chains generates a surface-exposed amino-acid oxidant that could be rapidly disarmed by reaction with cellular reductants. In investigations of cytochrome P450 BM 3 , we identified Trp96 as a critical residue that could play such a protective role. This Trp is cation-π paired with Arg398 in 81% of mammalian P450s. Here we report on the effect of the Trp/Arg cation-π interaction on Trp96 formal potentials as well as on electronic coupling strengths between Trp96 and the heme both for wild type cytochrome P450 and selected mutants. Mutation of Arg398 to His, which decreases the Trp96 formal potential, increases Trp-heme electronic coupling; however, surprisingly, the rate of phototriggered electron transfer from a Ru-sensitizer (through Trp96) to the P450 BM 3 heme was unaffected by the Arg398His mutation. We conclude that Trp96 has moved away from Arg398, suggesting that the protective mechanism for P450s with this Trp-Arg pair is conformationally gated.

Random Knotting in Fractal Ring Polymers

Many ring polymer systems of physical and biological interest exhibit both pronounced topological effects and nontrivial self-similarity, but the relationship between these two phenomena has not yet been clearly established. Here, we use theory and simulation to formulate such a connection by studying a fundamental topological property—the random knotting probability—for ring polymers with varying fractal dimension, d f . Using straightforward scaling arguments, we generalize a classic mathematical result, showing that the probability of a trivial knot decays exponentially with chain size, N, for all fractal dimensions: P 0 (N) ∝ exp(–N/N 0 ). However, no such simple considerations can account for the dependence of the knotting length, N 0 , on d f , necessitating a more involved analytical calculation. This analysis reveals a complicated double-exponential dependence, which is well supported by numerical data. By contrast, functional forms typical of simple scaling theories fail to adequately describe the observations. These findings are equally valid for two-dimensional ring polymer systems, where “knotting” is defined as the intersection of any two segments.

Searching for Alien Life Having Unearthly Biochemistry

The search for alien life in the solar system should include exploring unearth-like environments for life having an unearthly biochemistry. We expect alien life to conform to the same basic chemical and ecological constraints as terrestrial life, since inorganic chemistry and the laws of ecosystems appear to be universal. Astrobiologists usually assume alien life will use familiar terrestrial biochemistry and therefore hope to find alien life by searching near water or by supplying hydrocarbons. The assumption that alien life is likely to be based on carbon and water is traditional and plausible. It justifies high priority for missions to search for alien life on Mars and Europa, but it unduly restricts the search for alien life. Terrestrial carbon-water biochemistry is not possible on most of the bodies of our solar system, but all alien life is not necessarily based on terrestrial biochemistry. If alien life has a separate origin from Earth life, and if can survive in an environment extremely different from Earth's, then alien life may have unearthly biochemistry. There may be other solvents than water that support alien life and other elements than carbon that form complex life enabling chain molecules. Rather than making the exploration-restricting assumption that all life requires carbon, water, and terrestrial biochemistry, we should make the exploration-friendly assumption that indigenous, environmentally adapted, alien life forms might flourish using unearthly biochemistry in many places in the solar system. Alien life might be found wherever there is free energy and a physical/chemical system capable of using that energy to build living structures. Alien life may be discovered by the detection of some general non-equilibrium chemistry rather than of terrestrial biochemistry. We should explore all the potential abodes of life in the solar system, including those where life based on terrestrial biochemistry can not exist.

Cross-linking connectivity in bone collagen fibrils: the COOH-terminal locus of free aldehyde

Quantitative analyses of the chemical state of the 16c residue of the alpha 1 chain of bone collagen were performed on samples from fetal (4-6-month embryo) and mature (2-3 year old) bovine animals. All of this residue could be accounted for in terms of three chemical states, in relative amounts which depended upon the age of the animal. Most of the residue was incorporated into either bifunctional or trifunctional cross-links. Some of it, however, was present as free aldehyde, and the content increased with maturation. This was established by isolating and characterizing the aldehyde-containing peptides generated by tryptic digestion of NaB3H4-reduced mature bone collagen. We have concluded that the connectivity of COOH-terminal cross-linking in bone collagen fibrils changes with maturation in the following way: at first, each 16c residue in each of the two alpha 1 chains of the collagen molecule is incorporated into a sheet-like pattern of intermolecular iminium cross-links, which stabilizes the young, nonmineralized fibril as a whole. In time, some of these labile cross-links maturate into pyridinoline while others dissociate back to their precursor form. The latter is likely due to changes in the molecular packing brought about by the mineralization of the collagen fibrils. The resultant reduction in cross-linking connectivity may provide a mechanism for enhancing certain mechanical characteristics of the skeleton of a mature animal.

Local Chain Dynamics in Sequence-Controlled Polymers as a Tunable Handle for Rare Earth Sequestration

Chain dynamics govern the intricate behaviors of proteins, underpinning functions such as catalysis, recognition, and stimulus response, and are an increasingly appreciated aspect of structure–function relationships. Analogously, manipulating chain dynamics and structure in abiotic polymers via sequence control is an exciting, yet underexplored, strategy for improving material functions. In this work, we report a systematic study relating the sequence of polymeric sequestrants to their structure and dynamics, as well as to their binding affinity and selectivity for model substrates, rare earth elements (REEs). A series of sequence-controlled polymers with metal chelating, solubilizing, and structure forming monomers was synthesized via multiblock polymerization, yielding compositionally identical polymers with spectroscopically resolved domains and distinct morphologies. Using a combination of small-angle X-ray scattering and 19 F NMR relaxometry measurements, we connected differences in polymer structure and dynamics to polymer sequence variables such as the patchiness (density) of the structure forming monomer and the location of the chelating monomer. Furthermore, we found that, relative to calcium, all polymers in the series collapse more and have slower dynamics when binding REEs (lanthanum and lutetium) , though the extent of these effects were sequence-dependent and localized to specific domains within the polymer. Notably, sequence-controlled polymers that exhibited the largest conformational and dynamic changes upon binding REEs also bound REEs with the greatest affinity and modest selectivity. Collectively, these results correlate monomer patterning with dynamics, morphology, and REE binding performance en route to the development of efficient and selective macromolecular chelators.

Quantum computing based hybrid solution strategies for large-scale discrete-continuous optimization problems

Quantum computing (QC) has gained popularity due to its unique capabilities that are quite different from that of classical computers in terms of speed and methods of operations. This paper proposes hybrid models and methods that effectively leverage the complementary strengths of deterministic algorithms and QC techniques to overcome combinatorial complexity for solving large-scale mixed-integer programming problems. Four applications, namely the molecular conformation problem, job-shop scheduling problem, manufacturing cell formation problem, and the vehicle routing problem, are specifically addressed. Large-scale instances of these application problems across multiple scales ranging from molecular design to logistics optimization are computationally challenging for deterministic optimization algorithms on classical computers. To address the computational challenges, hybrid QC-based algorithms are proposed and extensive computational experimental results are presented to demonstrate their applicability and efficiency. The proposed QC-based solution strategies enjoy high computational efficiency in terms of solution quality and computation time, by utilizing the unique features of both classical and quantum computers.

Heisenberg spin chain as a worldsheet coordinate for lightcone quantized string

Although the energy spectrum of the Heisenberg spin chain on a circle defined by H = 1 4 Σ k = 1 M σ k x σ k + 1 x + σ k y σ k + 1 y + Δ σ k z σ k + 1 z is well known for any fixed M, the boundary conditions vary according to whether Mϵ 4N + r, where r = -1,0,1,2, and also according to the parity of the number of overturned spins in the state, In string theory all these cases must be allowed because interactions involve a string with M spins breaking into strings with M 1 < M and M - M 1 spins (or vice versa). We organize the energy spectrum and degeneracies of H in the case Δ = 0 where the system is equivalent to a system of free fermions. In spite of the multiplicity of special cases, in the limit M → ∞ the spectrum is that of a free compactified worldsheet field. Such a field can be interpreted as a compact transverse string coordinate x(σ) ≡ x(σ) + R 0 . We construct the bosonization formulas explicitly in all separate cases, and for each sector give the Virasoro conformal generators in both fermionic and bosonic formulations. Furthermore from calculations in the literature for selected classes of excited states, there is strong evidence that the only change for Δ ≠ 0 is a change in the compactification radius R 0 → R Δ . As Δ→ -1 this radius goes to infinity, giving a concrete example of noncompact space emerging from a discrete dynamical system. Finally we apply our work to construct the three string vertex implied by a string whose bosonic coordinates emerge from this mechanism.

A High Energy X-ray Diffraction Study of Amorphous Indomethacin

Amorphous pharmaceuticals often possess a wide range of molecular conformations and bonding arrangements. The x-ray pair distribution function (PDF) method is a powerful technique for the characterization of variations in both intra-molecular and inter-molecular packing arrangements. Here, the x-ray PDF of amorphous Indomethacin is shown to be particularly sensitive to the preferred orientations of the chlorobenzyl ring found in isomers in the crystalline state. In some cases, the chlorobenzyl ring has no preferred torsional angle in the amorphous form, while in others evidence of distinct isomer orientations are observed. Amorphous samples with no preferred torsion angles of the chlorobenzyl ring are found to favor enhanced inter-molecular hydrogen bonding, and this is reflected in the intensity of the first sharp diffraction peak. These significant variations in structure rule out amorphous Indomethacin as a possible standard for x-ray PDF measurements. At high humidity, time resolved PDF's for >40 h reveal water molecules forming hydrogen bonds with Indomethacin molecules. Finally, a simple linear hydrogen bond model indicates that water molecules in the wet amorphous form have similar hydrogen bond strengths to those found between Indomethacin dimers or chains in the dry amorphous form.

Skeletides: A Modular, Simplified Physical Model of Protein Secondary Structure

Three-dimensional (3D) models are essential for visualization and conceptual understanding of complex architectures such as protein structure. Although there is a plethora of software platforms that allow digital depictions of protein structure at an atomic level in silico, physical models are needed to convey an intuitive understanding of biomolecular architecture. However, it is a challenge to represent all the relevant features of proteins in a single physical model due to their sheer structural complexity. Here, we describe a modular protein model that focuses only on representation of the secondary structure—the underlying structural skeleton. The simplified model consists of amino acid units, which can be linked together to reproduce the two most fundamental structural features of protein secondary structure: the relative positions of the amino acid alpha carbon atoms, and the intra-main chain hydrogen bonding pattern. We use 3D printing and magnets to create a set of three modular amino acid building blocks, which when linked together into a chain, can faithfully represent alpha helices, beta sheets, and turns. These simple to make models can be used to quickly assemble the alpha carbon trace of an entire protein domain, which conveys a tactile experience of the complexity of protein skeletal architecture. These models highlight the modularity of protein structure: where a single structural unit, the amino acid, can be linked together to form a larger, regular secondary structure. These models also have a propensity to spontaneously organize into alpha helices and beta sheets, as demonstrated by their ability to autonomously assemble when placed in a circulating water tank. These models provide a missing educational tool to expand knowledge of protein structure, foster deeper insight into protein folding, and inspire greater interest in biomacromolecular architecture.
