Data and scripts from: Using Schematic Models to Understand the Microscopic Basis for Inverted Solubility in gammaD-crystallin

Dataset · September 30, 2019 Featured Publication Inverted solubility--melting a crystal by cooling--is observed in a handful of proteins, such as carbomonoxy hemoglobin and gammaD-crystallin. In human gammaD-crystallin, the phenomenon is associated with the mutation of the 23rd residue, a proline, to a t ... Full text Cite

Gardner physics in amorphous solids and beyond.

Journal article The Journal of chemical physics · July 2019 Featured Publication One of the most remarkable predictions to emerge out of the exact infinite-dimensional solution of the glass problem is the Gardner transition. Although this transition was first theoretically proposed a generation ago for certain mean-field spin glass mod ... Full text Open Access Cite
