    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 ...
  • Juliusson, Haraldur Y.; Sigurdsson, Snorri (Wiley, 2020-07)
    Two o‐benzoquinone derivatives of isoindoline were synthesized for use as building blocks to incorporate isoindoline nitroxides into different compounds and materials. These o‐quinones were condensed with a number of o‐phenylenediamines to form ...

    An isoindoline-nitroxide derivative of guanine (G, "G-spin") was shown to bind specifically and effectively to abasic sites in duplex RNAs. Distance measurements on a G-labeled duplex RNA with PELDOR (DEER) showed a strong orientation dependence. Thus, ...
  • Saha, Subham; Hetzke, Thilo; Prisner, Thomas F.; Sigurdsson, Snorri (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2018)
    In the first example of site-directed spin-labeling of unmodified RNA, a pyrrolidine-nitroxide derivative of tetramethylrosamine (TMR) was shown to bind with high affinity to the malachite green (MG) aptamer, as determined by continuous-wave (CW) ...
  • Kamble, Nilesh Ramesh; Wolfrum, Manpreet; Halbritter, Thomas; Sigurdsson, Snorri; Richert, Clemens (Wiley, 2020-01-21)
    Studying nucleic acids often requires labeling. Many labeling approaches require covalent bonds between the nucleic acid and the label, which complicates experimental procedures. Noncovalent labeling avoids the need for highly specific reagents and ...
