Abstract

Outside Front Cover: Peptides undergo chemical modifications similar to post-translational modifications in living organisms under plasma treatment, which play a key role in protein function. We present a modeling study on the interactions of plasma and peptides by a Reactive Molecular Dynamic (RMD) simulation. The formation and breaking of chemical bonds and the generation of new reactive groups on the structure of peptides are investigated upon impact of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the final products are given, which agree well with the experimental observation. Further details can be found in the article by Yun Han Ding, Xiao Long Wang, Shu Qi Tian, Shan Rui Li, Lian Li, Quan Xin Li, Tong Zhao, and Yuan Tao Zhang (e2200148)
