2-aminopurine is a highly fluorescent analog of adenine that can be incorporated synthetically into DNA with little perturbation of the native double-helical structure. The sensitive dependence of the quantum yield of this fluorophore on nucleic acid
The discoveries of fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and graphene have increased dramatically the research interests on all-carbon materials. Carbon-based materials have found applications in nanotechnology, material sciences, electronics, optic and
We describe a gradient search method appropriate for electronic structure problems where the energy functionals are explicitly orbital-dependent. The ground state is found by minimizing the total energy with respect to the scalar and vector potentials that

Prephenate is the product of a Claisen rearrangement of chorismate. The enzyme chorismate mutase (CM from B. subtilis) accelerates the reaction by a factor of 10 6. The standard method for quantifying prephenate measures the electronic absorption spectrum

An ab initio cofiguration interaction (CI) study including spin-orbit coupling is carried out for the ground and excited states of the IO radical by employing relativistic effective core potentials. The computed spectroscopic constants are in good
2-aminopurine (2AP) is a highly fluorescent isomer of adenine that can be incorporated into DNA as a probe of structure, dynamics, and protein-DNA interactions. Interpretation of the fluorescence of 2AP in DNA requires a model of the electronic structure
