Abstract:
The M2 proton channel from influenza A virus is an essential protein that mediates transport of protons across the viral envelope. This protein has a single transmembrane helix, which tetramerizes into the active channel. At the heart of the conduction mechanism is the exchange of protons between the His37 imidazole moieties of M2 and waters confined to the M2 bundle interior. Protons are conducted as the total charge of the four His37 side chains passes through 2(+) and 3(+) with a pK(a) near 6. A 1.65 angstrom resolution X-ray structure of the transmembrane protein (residues 25-46), crystallized at pH 6.5, reveals a pore that is lined by alternating layers of sidechains and well-ordered water clusters, which offer a pathway for proton conduction. The His37 residues form a box-like structure, bounded on either side by water clusters with well-ordered oxygen atoms at close distance. The conformation of the protein, which is intermediate between structures previously solved at
higher and lower pH, suggests a mechanism by which conformational changes might facilitate asymmetric diffusion through the channel in the presence of a proton gradient. Moreover, protons diffusing through the channel need not be localized to a single His37 imidazole, but instead may be delocalized over the entire His-box and associated water clusters. Thus, the new crystal structure provides a possible unification of the discrete site versus continuum conduction models.

Abstract:
Carbon nanotubes and acetonitrile are of interest for modern electrochemistry since they are used to make supercapacitors more efficient. In order to assess the feasibility of this setup, molecular dynamics simulations were performed to investigate the hydrophobic degasified single-walled nanotubes filling with liquid acetonitrile. The simulation shows that nanotubes with 10 nm of length can be completely filled with acetonitrile during less than 100 ps. Surprisingly, the filling process is not significantly affected by nanotube diameter and ambient conditions. In general, the ability of small hydrophobic carbon nanotubes to be completely filled with acetonitrile is an important feature for supercapacitors. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
