Permeability through DOPC/dodecane membranes: measurement and LFER modelling

TL;DR: The permeabilities of 43 ionisable compounds through membranes consisting of 2% dioleylphosphatidylcholine in dodecane at pH values between 3 and 10 have been measured and are modelled using Abraham's linear free energy relation method to provide a predictive model of membrane permeability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electronic Structure of the Alkyne-Bridged Dicobalt Hexacarbonyl Complex Co2 μ-C2H2 (CO)6: Evidence for Singlet Diradical Character and Implications for Metal−Metal Bonding

TL;DR: Complete active space methods are used to explore the bonding in and spectroscopic properties of Co2 micro-C2H2 (CO)6, indicating that this compound has substantial multireference character, which is interpreted as evidence of singlet diradical behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular dynamics at the receptor level of immunodominant myelin basic protein epitope 87-99 implicated in multiple sclerosis and its antagonists altered peptide ligands: triggering of immune response.

TL;DR: Molecular dynamics studies at the receptor level of the immunodominant myelin basic protein (MBP) epitope 87-99 implicated in multiple sclerosis, and its antagonists altered peptide ligands (APLs), indicate that these two amino acids have a different orientation in the APLs and it is proposed that this different topology could provide a possible mechanism of action for TCR antagonism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Local electron correlation descriptions of the intermolecular stacking interactions between aromatic intercalators and nucleic acids

TL;DR: In this paper, the binding energies of three intercalators to nucleic acid base pairs and base-pair steps were investigated using density fitting (DF) and local correlation methods, allowing use of basis sets appropriate for description of non-covalent interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scaled polar surface area descriptors: development and application to three sets of partition coefficients

TL;DR: In this article, modifications to the standard definition of polar surface area (PSA) are reported and tested against the octanol-water, chloroform-water and cyclohexane-water partition coefficients of 110 organic and drug-like molecules.
