Single-conformation spectroscopy of hydrogen bonding networks: Solvation, synthetic foldamers, and neurodegenerative diseases
… will focus on the application of gas phase, single-conformation ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) spectroscopies to the study of molecules and clusters in the size and solvation complexity gap, with the goal of bridging the gulf between the two experimental approaches.</p> …

Specialization of a calmodulin-like protein: Androcam adopts a single conformation over the entire physiological range of calcium
… show that unlike calmodulin, which switches its conformation in response to changes in [Ca+2], each lobe of androcam is locked in a single fold over the entire physiological range of [Ca+2]. The androcam C-lobe has two EF hands which each ligand a Ca+2 ion, and is structurally similar to …

Inverse Monte Carlo simulation of biomolecular conformation and coarse-grained molecular modeling of chondroitin sulfate conformation, titration, and osmotic pressure
… proteins, can be adequately characterized by a single conformation in solution, numerous other important molecules (e.g., nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and polypeptides) exhibit conformational isomerism and disorder. For these molecules, the term "structure" does not correspond to a single …

Ultraviolet and Infrared Spectroscopy of Synthetic Foldamers, Aib Homopeptides, and Solvated 1,2-Diphenylethane in the Gas Phase
… their respective zero-point vibrational levels. Single-conformation ultraviolet and infrared spectroscopy techniques are then used to probe these systems and investigate their electronic properties and uncover their intrinsic conformational preferences in the gas phase.</p> <p>Model β/γ-peptides …

Construction And Demonstration Of A Tandem Mass Spectrometer Based Instrument For Cold Ion Spectroscopy
… previous methods observe the fragmentation of a single mass channel.</p> <p>The infrared capabilities of the instrument are proven using the model pentapeptide leucine enkephalin (sequence YGGFL). Infrared spectra demonstrate a single conformation being present, with a reinforced hydrogen bonding …

Applications of electronic structure theory to problems in strong-field chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and nanomaterial systems
… group and the geometrical preference for a single isomer out of five possible isomers. Electronic structure theory indicates that the favored geometry is due to the chiral ligand, which prefers to be in a single conformation in metal complexes due to steric interactions. Chapter 6 covers a …
