Electronic absorption, natural and magnetic circular dichroism spectra of several nucleosides are simulated to understand their dependence on molecular dynamics and environment, their sensitivity to nucleoside pairing and stacking in nucleic acids.
Circular dichroism is a conventional method for studying the secondary structures of peptides and proteins and their transitions. While certain circular dichroism features are characteristic of α-helices and β-strands, the...
Experimental and computational electronic circular dichroism spectra are used in conjunction with anisotropy spectra to chiroptically characterize mandelic acid and its derivatives into the vacuum UV.
Singular value decomposition analysis of the secondary structure features contributing to the circular dichroism spectra of model proteins
