	2.	Research article Flexibility of EF-hand motifs: structural and thermodynamic studies of Calcium Binding Protein-1 from Entamoeba histolytica with Pb²⁺, Ba²⁺, and Sr²⁺ Shivesh Kumar, Ejaz Ahmad, Sanjeev Kumar, Rizwan Khan, Samudrala Gourinath BMC Biophysics 2012, 5:15 (20 August 2012) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed
	3.	Research article Stability of double-stranded oligonucleotide DNA with a bulged loop: a microarray study Christian Trapp, Marc Schenkelberger, Albrecht Ott BMC Biophysics 2011, 4:20 (13 December 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Stable DNA duplexes with a bulged loop can form from short strands of unequal length with duplex stability decreasing monotonically with the length of the bulged loop, contributing substantially to microarray fluorescence intensity
	4.	Research article Characterizing low affinity epibatidine binding to α4β2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors with ligand depletion and nonspecific binding Alexandra M Person, Gregg B Wells BMC Biophysics 2011, 4:19 (23 November 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Manipulation of maximum ligand and receptor concentrations and intentionally increasing ligand depletion are potentially helpful approaches to study low affinity binding of epibatidine to an independent binding site of alpha4beta2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.
	5.	Research article Introduction of non-linear elasticity models for characterization of shape and deformation statistics: application to contractility assessment of isolated adult cardiocytes Carlos Bazan, Trevor Hawkins, David Torres-Barba, Peter Blomgren, Paul Paolini BMC Biophysics 2011, 4:17 (22 August 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary A novel image analysis approach to assess cardiocyte contractility successfully captures the full extent of contractile behavior by incorporating biomechanical properties, energy conservation principles and information content measures.
	6.	Editorial Diffusion and association processes in biological systems: theory, computation and experiment Paolo Mereghetti, Daria Kokh, J Andrew McCammon, Rebecca C Wade BMC Biophysics 2011, 4:2 (2 March 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Rebecca Wade and colleagues provide a snapshot of research from a thematic series of articles on biological diffusion and Brownian dynamics simulations, which highlights a vibrant research field with growing synergy between experimental and computational studies.
