of cell-sized #chiral rotating actin rings driven by a chiral #myosin
Researchers explore how actin filaments and a motor protein can spontaneously give rise to cell-sized structures -
Researchers have identified specific achiral "parent" materials that can be engineered into electronically #chiral materials with a single, uniform handedness through targeted structural distortion.

`Herein we provide a theoretical treatment for this phenomenon, presenting an effective spin-Hamiltonian for helical molecules like DNA and density functional theory (DFT) results on amino acids that confirm the dependence of J-couplings on the choice of enantiomer. The connection between nuclear spin dynamics and #chirality could offer insights for #molecular sensing... These results establish NMR as a potential tool for #chiral discrimination without external agents.`

✨ #Innovation in #Chemical Data ✨
@BuchlerGmbh improves their search for #chiral #catalysts by integrating ontology terms from RXNO framework with our terminology service.
This promotes the FAIR principles terminology.We are 😀 to contribute to this.

Wie linke und rechte Hand: Sogenannte chirale Strukturen mit spiegelbildlichen Konfigurationen können offenbar auch aus nicht-chiralen Vorstufen entstehen. #chiral #Musterbildung #Physik

#Chiral (left/right-handed) molecules are crucial to biochemistry. Light can distinguish between them but interacts too weakly, and boosting with #nanophotonics is not easy because it destroys chirality of EM fields. Typical solution is to design #nanostructures with highly chiral field that makes molecules absorb circularly polarised light differently. Here we find a much stronger effect where the molecules make nanostructures absorb light differently!
