Polypeptide-Nanoparticle Interactions and Corona Formation Investigated by Monte Carlo Simulations

Biomacromolecule activity is usually related to its ability to keep a specific structure. However, in solution, many parameters (pH, ionic strength) and external compounds (polyelectrolytes, nanoparticles) can modify biomacromolecule structure as well as acid/base properties, thus resulting in a los...
