Fluorescence studies on the bases of the nucleic acids in solution at room temperature

Creator:

Hauswirth, William Walter

Abstract:

Fluorescence of adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine, and uracil has been detected at room temperature in neutral aqueous solution using a digital signal accumulation technique and right angle fluorescence detection from solutions with absorbances between 0. 4 and 0. 7. The quantum yields are respectively 2.6 x 10⁻⁴, 3.0 x 10⁻⁴,...

Analysis of secondary structures in nucleic acid binding proteins and nuclear magnetic resonance investigation of helix propagation and residual motions in proteins

Creator:

Hicks, Joshua M.

Abstract:

This thesis involves analyses of 3₂-helices, a-helices and of the change in residual entropy of a protein upon chemical modification. Part of the long-term goal of understanding the formation, function and stability of proteins requires that all conformations be accurately assigned and structurally understood. By a statistical analysis of 258...
