Polymeric Properties of Higher-Order G-Quadruplex Telomeric Structures: Effects of Chemically Inert Crowders

Deniz Mostarac, Mattia Trapella, Luca Bertini +3

G-quadruplexes are non-canonical DNA structures rather ubiquitous in human genome, which are thought to play a crucial role in the development of 85-90 % of cancers. Here, we prese…

Connecting Structure, Conformation and Energetics of Human Telomere G-quadruplex Multimers

Benedetta Petra Rosi, Valeria Libera, Andrea Orecchini +7

G-quadruplexes (G4s) are helical four-stranded structures forming from guanine-rich nucleic acid sequences, which are thought to play a role in cancer development and malignant tra…

Disentangling time-focusing from beam divergence: a novel approach for high-flux thermal neutron spectroscopy at continuous and long-pulse sources

M. Zanatta, K. H. Andersen, P. P. Deen +4

We present the concept of a novel time-focusing technique for neutron spectrometers, which allows to disentangle time-focusing from beam divergence. The core of this approach is a…

Small-angle neutron scattering and Molecular Dynamics structural study of gelling DNA nanostars

Javier Fernandez-Castanon, Francesca Bomboi, Lorenzo Rovigatti +8

DNA oligomers with properly designed sequences self-assemble into well defined constructs. Here, we exploit this methodology to produce bulk quantities of tetravalent DNA nanostars…

Change of caged dynamics at Tg in hydrated proteins found after suppressing the methyl-group rotation contribution

K. L. Ngai, S. Capaccioli, A. Paciaroni

In conventional glassformers at sufficiently short times and low enough temperatures, molecules are mutually caged by the intermolecular potential. The fluctuation and dissipation…

Evidence of coexistence of change of caged dynamics at Tg and the dynamic transition at Td in solvated proteins

S. Capaccioli, K. L. Ngai, S. Ancherbak +1

Mossbauer spectroscopy and neutron scattering measurements on proteins embedded in solvents including water and aqueous mixtures have emphasized the observation of the distinctive…
