Indication of 310-Helix Structure in Gas-Phase Neutral Pentaalanine

We investigate the gas-phase structure of the neutral pentaalanine peptide. The IR spectrum in the 340-1820 cm-1 frequency range is obtained by employing supersonic jet cooling, infrared multiphoton dissociation, and vacuum-ultraviolet action spectroscopy. ...

cgNA+: A sequence-dependent coarse-grain model of double-stranded nucleic acids

Rahul Sharma

DNA mechanics plays a crucial role in many biological processes, including nucleosome positioning and protein-DNA interactions. It is believed that nature employs epigenetic modifications in DNA to further regulate gene expression. Moreover, double-strande ...

Low-energy stereodynamics of ion-forming reactions

Junwen Zou

In this thesis, an experimental study of low-temperature stereodynamics in the reactive scattering of Ne(3P2) + X collisions (X = Ar, Kr, Xe, CO and N2) is presented. The steric effect of Ne(3P2) in these reactions is observed experimentally using a contro ...

Revealing Single-Bond Anomeric Selectivity in Carbohydrate-Protein Interactions

Ruslan Yamaletdinov, Aleksandr Pereverzev, Viktoriia Aladinskaia

The noncovalent binding of proteins to glycans is amazingly selective to the isoforms of carbohydrates, including alpha/beta anomers that coexist in solution. We isolate in the gas phase and study at the atomic level the simplest model system: noncovalent ...

Rational Design of Hole Transport Materials: Tools and Structure-Packing-Property Relationships

Kun-Han Lin

The growing demand for low-cost, large-scale and flexible electronics has led to a boost in research on organic semiconductors (OSC). Understanding structure-packing-property relationships (SPPR) and the role of molecular building blocks in charge transpor ...

Cryogenic Ion Spectroscopy for Identification of Monosaccharide Anomers

Thomas Rizzo, Valeriu Scutelnic

We combine conformer-selective, cryogenic infrared spectroscopy, quantum mechanical computations, and 18O substitution at the reducing end to determine the structural preferences of protonated glucosamine in the gas phase. Cryogenic infrared-infrared (IR-I ...

Semiaromatic Polyamides and Copolyamides Comprising Kinked Repeating Units

Julien Philippe Cretenoud

The replacement of metals with polymer-based materials is considered to be key to reducing weight, cost, and cycle times in different technological applications, including the automotive and aerospace industries. Semiaromatic polyamides are particularly at ...

Mixed-linker UiO-66: structure-property relationships revealed by a combination of high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction and density functional theory calculations

Berend Smit, Nicola Casati, Davide Tiana

The use of mixed-linker metal-organic frameworks (MIXMOFs) is one of the most effective strategies to modulate the physical-chemical properties of MOFs without affecting the overall crystal structure. In many instances, MIXMOFs have been recognized as soli ...

Interactions of TiO2 nanoparticles and the freshwater nematode Plectus aquatilis: particle properties, kinetic parameters and bioconcentration factors

Kristin Schirmer, Julita Maria Stadnicka-Michalak, Laura Sigg

Principles for determining uptake kinetics and bioconcentration factors for nanoparticles and test organisms have only been cursorily explored. Here we report the derivation of bioconcentration factors (BCFs) and the role of surface functionalization in th ...

IR-induced conformational isomerization of a helical peptide in a cold ion trap

Thomas Rizzo, Aleksandra Zabuga, Annette Svendsen, Caroline Seaiby

In this work we use laser-induced population transfer techniques to study the conformational isomerization of a helical peptide, Ac-Phe-(Ala)5-LysH+, in a cold ion trap. In one scheme, called IR-UV hole-filling spectroscopy, a single conformation is select ...
