Electronic Relaxation Dynamics of UV-Photoexcited 2-Aminopurine-Thymine Base Pairs in Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen Conformations

Rebecca Ann Ingle, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

The fluorescent analogue 2-aminopurine (2AP) of the canonical nucleobase adenine (6-aminopurine) base-pairs with thymine (T) without disrupting the helical structure of DNA. It therefore finds frequent use in molecular biology for probing DNA and RNA struc ...

Nucleobase pairing and photodimerization in a biologically derived metal-organic framework nanoreactor

David Lyndon Emsley, Berend Smit, Dominik Józef Kubicki, Kyriakos Stylianou, Ngoc Tú Nguyên, Peter George Boyd, Andrzej Gladysiak, Samantha Lynn Anderson

Biologically derived metal-organic frameworks (bio-MOFs) are of great importance as they can be used as models for bio-mimicking and in catalysis, allowing us to gain insights into how large biological molecules function. Through rational design, here we r ...

Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications of Visible Light Active Metal-Organic Frameworks

Samantha Lynn Anderson

Understanding how crystalline materials are assembled is important for the rational design of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Controlling their formation can allow researchers to streamline the synthesis of new materials as well as control their propertie ...

Labelling of Fusion Proteins with Synthetic Probes

Kai Johnsson, Alexandre Juillerat

The invention relates to new proteins called alkylcytosine transferases (ACTs) derived from O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase, and to substrates for ACTs specifically transferring a label to these ACTs and to fusion proteins comprising these. The substr ...

Synthesis, characterization, DNA interaction and potential applications of gold nanoparticles functionalized with Acridine Orange fluorophores

Alberto Schena

Two new water-soluble gold nanoparticles (AO-TEG-Au and AO-PEG-Au NPs) are prepared and characterized. They are stabilized by thioalkylated oligoethylene glycols and functionalized with fluorescent Acridine Orange (AO) derivatives. Despite the different co ...

Local glucocorticoid production in the mouse lung is induced by immune cell stimulation

Kristina Schoonjans

Background: Glucocorticoids (GC) are potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive steroid hormones, mainly produced by the adrenal glands. However, increasing evidence supports the idea of additional extra-adrenal sources of bioactive GC. The lung epithe ...

A QM/MM Investigation of Thymine Dimer Repair by DNA Photolyase

Ursula Röthlisberger

DNA photolyase is a highly efficient light-driven enzyme that repairs the UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer in damaged DNA. Herein, we investigate the repair reaction of the thymine dimer by means of hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical QM/ ...
