We studied the photoinduced ultrafast relaxation dynamics of the nucleobase thymine using gas-phase time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. By employing extreme ultraviolet pulses from high harmonic generation for photoionization, we substantially ...

Stabilities of nanohydrated thymine radical cations: insights from multiphoton ionization experiments and ab initio calculations [PDF]
Multi-photon ionization experiments have been carried out on thymine-water clusters in the gas phase. Metastable H2O loss from T+(H2O)n was observed at n ≥ 3 only.

Using thymine-18 for enhancing dose delivery and localizing the Bragg peak in proton-beam therapy [PDF]
Therapeutic protons acting on O18-substituted thymidine increase cytotoxicity in radio-resistant human cancer cells. We consider here the physics behind the irradiation during proton beam therapy and diagnosis using O18-enriched thymine in DNA, with attention to the effect of the presence of thymine-18 on cancer cell death.

Transient Resonant Auger-Meitner Spectra of Photoexcited Thymine [PDF]
We present the first investigation of excited state dynamics by resonant Auger-Meitner spectroscopy (also known as resonant Auger spectroscopy) using the nucleobase thymine as an example. Thymine is photoexcited in the UV and probed with X-ray photon energies at and below the oxygen K-edge.

Design, synthesis, conformational analysis and nucleic acid hybridisation properties of thymidyl pyrrolidine-amide oligonucleotide mimics (POM) [PDF]
Pyrrolidine-amide oligonucleotide mimics (POM) 1 were designed to be stereochemically and conformationally similar to natural nucleic acids, but with an oppositely charged, cationic backbone.

In the 15-mer catalytic core of 10-23 DNAzyme, each residue contributes to the catalytic conformation differently. Here, the critically conserved T4 and the least conserved T8 were modified on their 5-position with hydroxyl, imidazolyl, and amino groups ...

Ru(II)-thymine complex [Ru(PPh3)2(Thy)(bipy)]PF6 (where PPh3 = triphenylphosphine, Thy = thyminate and bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) is a potent cytotoxic agent with ability to bind to DNA, inducing caspase-mediated apoptosis in leukemia cells.

Thymine functionalised porphyrins, synthesis and heteromolecular surface-based self-assembly [PDF]
The synthesis and surface-based self-assembly of thymine-functionalised porphyrins is described. Reaction of 1-formylphenyl-3-benzoyl-thymine with suitable pyrollic species leads to the formation of tetra-(phenylthymine)porphyrin (tetra-TP) or mono ...

Synthesis technique and electron beam damage study of nanometer-thin single-crystalline Thymine [PDF]
Samples suitable for electron diffraction studies must satisfy certain characteristics such as having a thickness in the range of 10 - 100 nm. We report, to our knowledge, the first successful synthesis technique of nanometer-thin sheets of single-crystalline thymine suitable for electron diffraction and spectroscopy studies.
