Exploiting Receptors Competition to Enhance Nanoparticles Binding Selectivity
Stefano Angioletti-Uberti
Nanoparticles functionalized with multiple ligands can be programmed to bind biological targets depending on the receptors they express, providing a general mechanism exploited in…
Reaction rate of a composite core-shell nanoreactor with multiple, spatially distributed embedded nano-catalysts
Marta Galanti, Duccio Fanelli, Stefano Angioletti-Uberti +3
We present a detailed theory for the total reaction rate constant of a composite core-shell nanoreactor, consisting of a central solid core surrounded by a hydrogel layer of variab…
Thermosensitive Cu2O-PNIPAM core-shell nanoreactors with tunable photocatalytic activity
He Jia, Rafael Roa, Stefano Angioletti-Uberti +9
We report a facile and novel method for the fabrication of Cu2O@PNIPAM core-shell nanoreactors using Cu2O nanocubes as the core. The PNIPAM shell not only effectively protects the…
Simple approach for calculating the binding free energy of a multivalent particle
Nicholas B. Tito, Stefano Angioletti-Uberti, Daan Frenkel
We present a simple yet accurate numerical approach to compute the free energy of binding of multivalent objects on a receptor-coated surface. The method correctly accounts for the…
Resonance Reaction in Diffusion-Influenced Bimolecular Reactions
Jakob J. Kolb, Stefano Angioletti-Uberti, Joachim Dzubiella
We investigate the influence of a stochastically fluctuating step-barrier potential on bimolecular reaction rates by exact analytical theory and stochastic simulations. We demonstr…
Theory and Simulation of DNA-Coated Colloids: a Guide for Rational Design
Stefano Angioletti-Uberti, Bortolo M. Mognetti, Daan Frenkel
By exploiting the exquisite selectivity of DNA hybridization, DNA-Coated Colloids (DNACCs) can be made to self-assemble in a wide variety of structures. The beauty of this system s…
