The binding of three distinct agonists acetylcholine (ACh), nicotine, and epibatidine to the
nicotinic acetylcholine receptor has been probed using unnatural amino acid mutagenesis …

Interactions of adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine with Na+, Mg2+, and Zn2+ cations
were studied using an approximate resolution of identity correlated second-order MP2 (RI …

Bacteria react to adverse environmental stimuli by clustering into organized communities
called biofilms. A remarkably sophisticated control system based on the dinucleotide 3 …

Understanding the structure and function of RNA and DNA systems depends partly on our
comprehension of the binding features of metal ions to nucleobases. Such knowledge is …

Metal ion interactions with nucleic acids attract attention because of the environmental and
biological consequences. The formation of the complex is often monitored by the vibrational …

Metal ion interaction with deoxyribonucleic acid and peptide nucleic acid were studied using
B3LYP-D3/6–311++ g (d, p)//B3LYP/6-31+ G (d) level of theory in aqueous phase employing …

Understanding the role of metal ions in living organisms and their interactions with biological
compounds is fundamental for our health and for developing technological devices for …

Metal ions are crucial for folding and function of noncoding RNAs. The fact that RNAs have
very specific metal ion binding motifs further implies that contribution of metal ions (like …

With the aid of labeling with stable isotopes (15N and 13C) a complete set of chemical shifts
and indirect spin− spin coupling constants was obtained for the zwitterionic form of l-alanyl-l …

In this work, the valence vertical ionization energies (up to 5) of some important biologically
active molecules including 2, 4-dinitrophenol, 2, 4-dinitroanisole, nicotinic acid, nicotinic …
