Building up nanotubes: Docking of "Janus" cyclodextrins in solution
Using molecular dynamics experiments, we analyze the association of "Janus" 6-amino-6-deoxy-2O-carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrins (JCD) in aqueous solutions. In JCD dimers, the free energy associated with the primary-rim-secondary-rim docking shows a stable minimum of ∼-45 kcal mol-1. Trimers i...
