Identification and functional analysis of endogenous nitric oxide in a filamentous fungus.

abstract：:Using the universal structure predictor algorithm, we proposed that two-dimensional MnB structures with p4mmm (α-MnB) and pmma (β-MnB) symmetries could be synthesized. This finding was verified by calculating the dynamical stability, molecular dynamics, and mechanical properties. The α-MnB had an in-plane stiffness Y ...
