Nanoparticles: Scaffolds for Molecular Recognition

Chemistry - A European Journal, 2004
AbstractMonolayer and mixed‐monolayer protected clusters (MPCs and MMPCs) have great potential to combine molecular functionality with the intrinsic properties of nanometer‐sized scaffolds. This synergy can be used to create complex functional devices, including redox‐active, electronic, or magnetic storage devices, solution‐based sensors, and highly ...

The ‘n’ Effect in Molecular Recognition

Journal of Molecular Recognition, 1996
The cooperativity which exists in crystal melting and many biological molecular recognition phenomena arises from extended arrays of weak interactions. We present a correlation between the melting temperature of a crystal and the intermolecular energy (which is evident only when compounds possessing several or many internal rotors are excluded).

Oligosaccharides in molecular recognition

Biochemical Society Transactions, 1988
Summary The development, organization and growth of complex organisms as well as their interactions with the environment involve an intricate array of molecular recognition events. There is an increased awareness of the involvement of oligosaccharides in many of these processes.

Complexity in molecular recognition

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2011
The anomer selectivity of artificial carbohydrate receptors was studied using in silico methods in order to shed light on the thermodynamic driving forces at work during molecular recognition in general. The contributions of relevant intermolecular hydrogen bonds were investigated by means of generalized compliance constants in order to dissect ...

Molecular Recognition of Amidines in Water

Organic Letters, 2003
[structure: see text] Tetraphosphonates of the general structure shown above are biomimetic hosts for bisamidinium cations in drugs such as pentamidine and DAPI. Similar to their insertion into DNA's minor groove, these drugs are often sandwiched by two tetraphosphonate hosts (2:1). The alternative binding mode (1:2) produces extremely high association

Model Studies in Molecular Recognition

Science, 1987
Recognition at the molecular level is a fundamental characteristic of biochemical systems. Recent models developed in bioorganic chemistry have revealed the importance of complementarity in size, shape, and functional groups in molecular recognition.

Molecular recognition in copper trafficking

Natural Product Reports, 2010
From the basic export of unwanted metal ions in simple organisms to the complex orchestration of metal handling and usage in higher eukaryotes, cellular systems are based on a variety of molecular mechanisms that constrain the right metal to bind to the right protein partner at the right time when needed.

Molecular recognition of pertechnetate and perrhenate

Chemical Society Reviews, 2009
This tutorial review covers the chemistry of artificial receptors designed to recognize the pertechnetate and perrhenate anions. It focuses on the molecular features that give rise to effective and selective complexation. Specific receptor classes are discussed in the context of available solution-phase and solid-state data with differences between ...

Molecular Assembly and Molecular Recognition

1995
The use of molecular design for optimised molecular recognition and self-assembly for improved materials for chemical sensing is discussed. Peripheral substitution of phthalocyanines by alkyl, alkoxy, or crownether groups promotes self-assembly and provides control of local polarisability, optimising charge-transfer interaction energies for rapid ...
