A Remodeled Protein Arginine Methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) Generates Symmetric Dimethylarginine 

Gui, Shanying; Gathiaka, Symon; Li, Jun; Qu, Jun; Acevedo, Orlando; Hevel, Joan M. (2020-07-24)
Protein arginine methylation is emerging as a significant post-translational modification involved in various cell processes and human diseases. As the major arginine methylation enzyme, protein arginine methyltransferase ...

Second-order, two-electron Dyson propagator theory: Comparisons for vertical double ionization potentials 

Ida, T.; Ortiz, J.V. (2021-01-26)
The second-order, two-electron Dyson propagator is derived using superoperator theory with a spin-adapted formulation. To include certain ladder diagrams to all orders, the shifted-denominator SD2 approximation is made. ...

Sequential addition of H2O, CH3OH, and NH3 to Al3O3-: A theoretical study 

Guevara-Garcia, Alfredo; Martinez, Ana; Ortiz, J.V. (2021-01-26)
Photoelectron spectra of two species, Al3O3(H2O)(2)(-) and Al3O3(CH3OH)(2)(-), that are produced by the addition of two water or methanol molecules to Al3O3- are interpreted with density-functional geometry optimizations ...

Spin splittings from first-order symmetry-adapted perturbation theory without single-exchange approximation 

Waldrop, Jonathan; Patkowski, Konrad; 0000-0003-0442-193X; 0000-0002-4468-207X (2020-05-20)
The recently proposed spin-flip symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SF-SAPT) first-order exchange energy [Patkowski et al., J. Chem. Phys. 148, 164110 (2018)] enables the standard open-shell SAPT approach to treat arbitrary ...

Subunit D of RNA Polymerase from Methanosarcina acetivorans Contains Two Oxygen-labile [4Fe-4S] Clusters IMPLICATIONS FOR OXIDANT-DEPENDENT REGULATION OF TRANSCRIPTION 

Lessner, Faith H.; Jennings, Matthew E.; Hirata, Akira; Duin, Eduardus C.; Lessner, Daniel J. (2020-08-20)
Subunit D of multisubunit RNA polymerase from many species of archaea is predicted to bind one to two iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters, the function of which is unknown. A survey of encoded subunit D in the genomes of sequenced ...

Surface Green’s function calculations: A nonrecursive scheme with an infinite number of principal layers 

Kletsov, Aleksey; Dahnovsky, Yuri; Ortiz, J.V. (2021-01-26)
A novel computational method for a surface Green’s function matrix is introduced for the calculation of electrical current in molecular wires. The proposed nonrecursive approach includes an infinite number of principal ...

Two-photon imaging of Zn2+ dynamics in mossy fiber boutons of adult hippocampal slices 

Khan, Mustafa; Goldsmith, Christian R.; Huang, Zhen; Georgiou, John; Luyben, Thomas T.; Roder, John C.; Lippard, Stephen J.; Okamoto, Kenichi (2020-01-16)
Mossy fiber termini in the hippocampus accumulate Zn2+, which is released with glutamate from synaptic vesicles upon neural excitation. Understanding the spatiotemporal regulation of mobile Zn2+ at the synaptic level is ...

Valence and diffuse-bound anions of noble-gas complexes with uracil 

Streit, Livia; Dolgounitcheva, O.; Zakrzewski, V. G.; Ortiz, J. V.; Ortiz, Joseph Vincent (2020-08-20)
Valence-bound (VB) and diffuse-bound (DB) anions of noble-gas (Ar, Kr, and Xe) complexes with uracil have been studied with ab initio methods. MP2 optimizations revealed minima corresponding to anions of both kinds in ...
