The ‘allosteron’ model for entropic allostery of self-assembly (2018)
Journal Article
McLeish, T., Schaefer, C., & von der Heydt, A. (2018). The ‘allosteron’ model for entropic allostery of self-assembly. Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 373(1749), Article 20170186. https://doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2017.0186

Using the simple ‘allosteron’ model, we show that it is possible, in principle, to elicit pathways by which fluctuation allostery affects self-assembly of protein complexes. We treat the cases of (i) protein fibrils and nucleation, (ii) n-mer protein... Read More about The ‘allosteron’ model for entropic allostery of self-assembly.

Structuring of Fluid Adlayers upon Ongoing Unimolecular Adsorption (2018)
Journal Article
Schaefer, C. (2018). Structuring of Fluid Adlayers upon Ongoing Unimolecular Adsorption. Physical Review Letters, 120(3), Article 036001. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.120.036001

Fluids with spatial density variations of single or mixed molecules play a key role in biophysics, soft matter, and materials science. The fluid structures usually form via spinodal decomposition or nucleation following an instantaneous destabilizati...
