Thermodynamic, kinetic and structural studies on the ternary palladium(II) complexes of thioether ligands.

J. Inorg. Biochem. 79(1-4) , 129-38, (2000)

Potentiometric, calorimetric, NMR and stopped-flow kinetic studies were performed on the palladium(II) complexes of thioether and/or nitrogen donor ligands. The ternary systems always contained a tridentate ligand (dien, terpy and dianions of dipeptides, GlyG...

Electronic and vibrational spectroscopy of 1-methylthymine and its water clusters: the dark state survives hydration.

ChemPhysChem 9 , 1570-1577, (2008)

Electronic and vibrational gas phase spectra of 1-methylthymine (1MT) and 1-methyluracil (1MU) and their clusters with water are presented. Mass selective IR/UV double resonance spectra confirm the formation of pyrimidine-water clusters and are compared to ca...

The influence of packing on free radical yields in crystalline nucleic acids: the pyrimidine bases.

Radiat. Res. 140(2) , 199-214, (1994)

The total free radical yield has been measured for crystals of five pyrimidine derivatives: thymine (T), 1-methylthymine (1MeT), 1-methyluracil (1MeU), 1-methylcytosine (1MeC) and cytosine monohydrate (C:HOH). Q-band EPR measurements were made on samples X-ir...

Reactivity of substituted charged phenyl radicals toward components of nucleic acids.

J. Am. Chem. Soc. 125(8) , 2272-81, (2003)

Reactions of differently substituted phenyl radicals with components of nucleic acids have been investigated in the gas phase. A positively charged group located meta with respect to the radical site was employed to allow manipulation of the radicals in a Fou...

On the use of ultraviolet resonance Raman intensities to elaborate molecular force fields: application to nucleic acid bases and aromatic amino acid residues models.

Biospectroscopy 4(6) , 379-93, (1998)

Normal modes analyses for different molecules with biological interest have been performed and checked via the calculation of resonance Raman intensities. For this purpose, molecular orbital calculations were used to determine bond order changes in the lowest...

Vibrational Feshbach resonances in uracil and thymine.

J. Chem. Phys. 124(12) , 124310, (2006)

Sharp peaks in the dissociative electron attachment (DEA) cross sections of uracil and thymine at energies below 3 eV are assigned to vibrational Feshbach resonances (VFRs) arising from coupling between the dipole bound state and the temporary anion state ass...

HIV-1 Tat protein induces the production of IDO in human monocyte derived-dendritic cells through a direct mechanism: effect on T cells proliferation.

PLoS ONE 8 , e74551, (2013)

During HIV-1 infection, an increase of indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO) expression, and dendritic cells (DC) dysfunction were often associated with AIDS disease progression. In this work, we investigated the effect of HIV-1 Tat protein on the expression of I...

Noncovalent interactions in paired DNA nucleobases investigated by terahertz spectroscopy and solid-state density functional theory.

J. Phys. Chem. A 115(34) , 9467-78, (2011)

Cocrystallized adenine and thymine derivatives, along with the pure monomeric crystals, were investigated by terahertz spectroscopy and solid-state density functional theory (DFT). The methylated nucleobase derivatives crystallize in planar hydrogen-bonded ad...

Thymine-metal ion interactions: relevance for thymine quartet structures.

J. Biol. Inorg. Chem. 6(4) , 378-89, (2001)

Apart from their function as counter ions for the charge neutralization of nucleic acids, alkali metal ions play important roles in stabilizing particular multistranded nucleic acids, e.g. guanine quartets in telomeres and uracil (U) or thymine (T) quartets. ...

Vibrational spectra of 1-methylthymine: matrix isolation, solid state and theoretical studies.
