    The tetracycline-binding RNA aptamer (TC-aptamer) is a synthetic riboswitch that binds the antibiotic tetracycline (TC) with exceptionally high affinity. Although a crystal structure exists of the TC-bound state, little is known about the conformational ...

    A novel heterogeneous dirhodium catalyst has been synthesized. This stable catalyst is constructed from dirhodium acetate dimer (Rh2(OAc)4) units, which are covalently linked to amine‐ and carboxyl‐bifunctionalized mesoporous silica (SBA‐15NH2COOH). ...
  • Shelke, Sandip; Sandholt, Gunnar Birgir; Sigurdsson, Snorri (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2014)
    Non-covalent and site-directed spin labeling gives easy access to spin-labeled nucleic acids for the study of their structure and dynamics by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. In a search for improved spin labels for non-covalent ...
