Langevin Dipoles Model for ab Initio Calculations of Chemical Processes in Solution: Parametrization and Application to Hydration Free Energies of Neutral and Ionic Solutes and Conformational Analysis in Aqueous Solution

TL;DR: In this paper, a new parametrization of the Langevin dipole (LD) model is developed for ab initio calculations of chemical processes in aqueous solution, which is implemented in both the iterative and noniterative (NLD) versions of the LD model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spontaneous DNA Mutations Induced by Proton Transfer in the Guanine·Cytosine Base Pairs: An Energetic Perspective

TL;DR: In this paper, Hartree−Fock (HF) calculations were performed for the guanine·cytosine Watson−Crick base pair, and the relative stabilities and dissociation energies of the base pairs were determined at the higher MP2/6-31G**/HF/6 -31G* level of theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphate Ester Hydrolysis in Aqueous Solution: Associative versus Dissociative Mechanisms

TL;DR: Phosphate hydrolysis plays a major role in many biological processes and to fully understand such processes, it is essential to obtain a quantitative description of the corresponding reactions in solu...

Hybrid ab Initio Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics Calculations of Free Energy Surfaces for Enzymatic Reactions: The Nucleophilic Attack in Subtilisin

TL;DR: In this article, an approach for ab initio calculations of activation free energies of enzymatic reactions is developed and examined using an empirical valence bond (EVB) potential surface as a reference potential.
