Using computer simulations, a RUB researcher has shown that the oxygen molecule is stable up to pressures of 1.9 terapascal, which is about nineteen million times higher than atmosphere pressure ...

The oxygen molecule is first funneled in the specific channel to an appropriate anhydrous catalytic cavity containing iron.

The mediation of oxygen exchange by these stuffed structures suggests a new view of the relationship between structure and reactivity at the oxide/solution interface.

To a molecular biologist the problem of understanding the ligand-binding function of a protein, for example, may be solved once the binding site has been identified in the three-dimensional structure.
