Solvent quality dependent osmotic pressure of polymer solutions in two dimensions

Lei Liu, Changbong Hyeon

Confined in two dimensional planes, polymer chains comprising dense monolayer solution are segregated from each other due to topological interaction. Although the segregation is in…

Contact statistics highlight distinct organizing principles of proteins and RNA

Lei Liu, Changbong Hyeon

Although both RNA and proteins have densely packed native structures, chain organizations of these two biopolymers are fundamentally different. Motivated by the recent discoveries…
