Effects of monovalent anions of the Hofmeister series on DPPC lipid bilayers part I: Swelling and in-plane equations of state
(2007)Aiming to improve understanding of the mechanisms behind specific anion effects in biological systems we have studied the effects of sodium salts of simple monovalent anions belonging to the Hofmeister series on the bilayers ...

Effects of monovalent anions of the Hofmeister series on DPPC lipid bilayers part II: Modeling the perpendicular and lateral equation-of-state
(2007)The effects of Hofmeister anions on the perpendicular and lateral equation-of-state (EOS) of the dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine lamellar phase discussed in the companion article are here examined using appropriate free ...

Proton binding to proteins: A free-energy component analysis using a dielectric continuum model
(2005)Proton binding plays a critical role in protein structure and function. We report pKa calculations for three aspartates in two proteins, using a linear response approach, as well as a "standard" Poisson-Boltzmann approach. ...
