The doping of two Mg atoms on Au-clusters has considerable effects on the structure and stability of gold clusters. The doped clusters enhance the stability of pure Au-clusters as observed from the binding energy plot.

We investigate the stability and electronic properties of oxy- (O) or imine- (NH) functionalized monolayer phosphorene with either single-side or double-side functionalization based on density-functional theory calculations.

Using the first principle method based on density functional theory (DFT), we have studied the stability, structure, and electronic properties in (2 2), (3, 3), (4 4), (5 5), (6 6) armchair and (4 0), (5 0), (6 0) zigzag GaN nanotubes (GaN-NTs). In addition, the radius of N, Ga atoms, buckling separations, band gap and binding energy of (3 3) and (4 0) GaN-NTs in c-axis strain are investigated. We also explore the modification of density of states due to the strain along c-axis orientation. It is found that the strain can change conductive properties of (3 3) and (4 0) GaN-NTs.

Presently, an emerging disease (COVID-19) has been spreading across the world due to coronavirus (SARS-CoV2). For treatment of SARS-CoV2 infection, currently hydroxychloroquine has been suggested by researchers, but it has not been found enough effective against this virus. The present study based on in silico approaches was designed to enhance the therapeutic activities of hydroxychloroquine by using curcumin as an adjunct drug against SARS-CoV2 receptor proteins: main-protease and S1 receptor binding domain (RBD). The webserver (ANCHOR) showed the higher protein stability for both receptors with disordered score (<0.5). The molecular docking analysis revealed that the binding energy (-24.58 kcal/mol) of hydroxychloroquine was higher than curcumin (-20.47 kcal/mol) for receptor main-protease, whereas binding energy of curcumin (<a>-38.84</a> kcal/mol) had greater than hydroxychloroquine<a> (-35.87</a> kcal/mol) in case of S1 receptor binding domain. Therefore, this study suggested that the curcumin could be used as combination therapy along with hydroxychloroquine for disrupting the stability of SARS-CoV2 receptor proteins
