Computational Investigations of Selected Enzymes From Two Iron and α-ketoglutarate-Dependent Families [PDF]
DNA alkylation is used as the key epigenetic mark in eukaryotes, however, most alkylation in DNA can result in deleterious effects. Therefore, this process needs to be tightly regulated. AlkB and TET are families within the Fe and $\alpha$-kg-dependent superfamily of enzymes that are tasked with dealkylating DNA and RNA in cells.

Effect of alkyl substituents on the adsorption of thienylenevinylene oligomers on the Si (100) surface [PDF]
The adsorption of thienylenevinylene oligomers on the Si(100) surface has been investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy. The mode of substitution of the thiophene ring exerts a strong influence on the adsorption configurations and the images of the oligomer based on 3,4-dihexyl thiophene are highly voltage dependent. We discuss the influence of

Surface Dipoles and Work Functions of Alkylthiolates and Fluorinated Alkylthiolates on Au(111) [PDF]
We study the dipole formation at the surface formed by -CH3 and -CF3 terminated shortchain alkyl-thiolate monolayers on Au(111). In particular, we monitor the change in work function upon chemisorption using density functional theory calculations. We separate the surface dipole into two contributions, resulting from the gold-adsorbate interaction and ...

How do electronic carriers cross Si-bound alkyl monolayers? [PDF]
Electron transport through Si-C bound alkyl chains, sandwiched between n-Si and Hg, is characterized by two distinct types of barriers, each dominating in a different voltage range. At low voltage, current depends strongly on temperature but not on molecular length, suggesting transport by thermionic emission over a barrier in the Si. At higher voltage,

Tunneling transport in devices with semiconducting leads [PDF]
This paper extends the modern theory of tunneling transport to finite temperatures. The extension enables applications to molecular electronic devices connected to semiconducting leads. The paper presents an application of the theory to molecular devices made of alkyl chains connected to silicon nano-wires, mapping their transport characteristics as ...

Background:O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) loss of expression has been suggested to be predictive of response to temozolomide in neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), but so far, only limited data are available.
