A novel mechanism for energy activation in biomolecules
Shanshan Wu, Ao Ma
An activated process consists of energy activation and barrier crossing; the former is a prerequisite for the latter. Barrier crossing has been studied extensively, but energy acti…

Kinetic energy flows in activated dynamics of biomolecules
Huiyu Li, Ao Ma
Protein conformational changes are activated processes essential for protein functions. Activation in a protein differs from activation in a small molecule in that it involves dire…
