Capturing the essence of folding and functions of biomolecules using Coarse-Grained Models
The distances over which biological molecules and their complexes can function range from a few nanometres, in the case of folded structures, to millimetres, for example during chromosome organization. Describing phenomena that cover such diverse length,

Glycosaminoglycans as Polyelectrolytes: Charge, Interactions, and Applications
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are linear, anionic biopolymers with their functions tightly linked to their charge. This review approaches GAGs from a polyelectrolyte perspective, shedding light on how the distribution of sulfate groups and, thus, negative charges, governs their interactions with other biomolecules.

Hydrate‐mediated oxidation of 5‐formyl nucleobases by the iron(IV)‐oxido complex proceeds via geminal diol intermediates, accelerating hydrogen‐atom transfer and revealing aza‐dependent kinetic and mechanistic pathways. This study investigates the oxidation of 5‐hydroxymethyl and 5‐formyl nucleobases using an iron(IV)‐oxido complex that mimics the ...

Selective coordination of gold ions to mismatched cytosines in nucleic acid duplexes is achieved via oxidation‐state‐dependent interactions. While Au(I) binds to natural cytosine–cytosine pairs, cytosine thiolation promotes square‐planar coordination with Au(III), offering a structure‐guided approach to redox‐tunable nucleic acid architectures.
