Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced stability of cis Pro-Pro peptide bond in Pro-Pro-Phe sequence motif.
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the Pro‐ pro cis conformer in Pro‐Pro‐Phe sequence motifs is as important as the trans conformer, both in short peptides as well as in natively folded proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conformational preferences of a short Aib/Ala-based water-soluble peptide as a function of temperature.
TL;DR: The results point towards conformational heterogeneity of water‐soluble Aib‐based peptide helices and the associated subtleties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Luminescent iron clusters in solution
Nirmal Goswami,Ananya Baksi,Anupam Giri,Paulrajpillai Lourdu Xavier,Gautam Basu,Thalappil Pradeep,Samir Kumar Pal +6 more
TL;DR: The synthesis and characterization of novel iron clusters in the hemoglobin matrix that are highly luminescent (quantum yield 10% at 565 nm) are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Benzyl Moiety in a Quinoxaline‐Based Scaffold Acts as a DNA Intercalation Switch
Tridib Mahata,Ajay Kanungo,Sudakshina Ganguly,Eswar Kalyan Modugula,Susobhan Choudhury,Samir Kumar Pal,Gautam Basu,Sanjay Dutta +7 more
TL;DR: This work has reported a unique example of a monomeric quinoxaline derivative of a 6-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-diamine scaffold which binds dsDNA by two different modes and provides important insights about molecular architecture which control specific DNA binding modes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrostatic potential of nucleotide-free protein is sufficient for discrimination between adenine and guanine-specific binding sites
TL;DR: Electrostatic potential patterns at adenine and guanine-binding sites of a large number of non-redundant proteins are analyzed and ligand-free protein ESP is demonstrated to be an excellent indicator for discrimination between adenines and guAnine-specific binding sites.
