Abstract:
Nanometric silica helical ribbons are used as platforms 1) to graft Perovskyte nano crystals and 2) grow in-situ Perovskyte crystals having helical shape using supersaturated recrystallization method. For both systems, they show strong induced circular dichroism (CD) and induced circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) signals, with very high dissymetric g-factors. The signs of these signals depend on the handedness of the helices. Right-handed and left-handed PNCs show respectively positive and negative CD and CPL signals.

The formation of helical nanostructure is investigated for donor/acceptor system. The helices of the supramolecular nanofibres can be revealed by atom force microscope (AFM) and circular dichroism (CD) measurement. The expermental results show the Py-Per-Py can self assembly into helical nanofibres. The controlled experiments on the compound Py-e-Per-e-Py with symmetrical conformation indicates the formation of helical nanofibres may be attributed to asymmetrical conformation.

DNA and proteins are chiral: Their three-dimensional structures cannot be superimposed with their mirror images. Circular dichroism spectroscopy is widely used to characterize chiral compounds, but data interpretation is difficult in the case of mixtures.

We studied guanine-rich strands having various secondary structures, electrosprayed them as negative ions, irradiated them with an ultraviolet nanosecond optical parametric oscillator laser, and measured the difference in electron photodetac

Water-soluble helices could be further cross-linked with Ca 2+ ions to form a well-dispersed aqueous suspension.

Circular dichroism and optical rotation are crucial for the characterization of chiral molecules and are of importance to the study of pharmaceutical drugs, proteins, DNA, and many others.

For light carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM), for example, twisted or helical light, the consensus is that it cannot engage with the chirality of a molecular system as previous studies failed to demonstrate an interaction between optic

In this paper, we explored the effect of the chiral inversion of the N-capping sequence on QK folding, performing conformational analysis in solution by circular dichroism and NMR spectroscopy. The effect of such a modification on QK stability in serum and the proliferative effect were also evaluated.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The capsid proteins of two flaviviruses, yellow fever virus and dengue virus, were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to near homogeneity suitable for biochemical characterization and structure determination by nuclear magnetic resonance. The oligomeric properties of the capsid protein in solution were investigated. In the absence of nucleic acid, both proteins were predominately dimeric in solution. Further analysis of both proteins with far-UV circular dichroism spectroscopy indicated that they were largely alpha-helical. The secondary structure elements of the dengue virus

Abstract:
Two types of binary mixtures were prepared. One consisted of a calamitic nematogen and bent-core molecule with a helical nanofilament, whereas the other contained a calamitic nematogen and bent-core molecule with a dark conglomerate. The chiroptical features of these two mixtures were investigated using polarized optical microscopy and circular dichroism. In addition, X-ray diffraction analysis was performed on the two binary mixtures. The chiroptical features of the two mixtures were remarkably different. One mixture showed enhanced chiroptical features, whereas the other did not show chiropt

Abstract:
Pauling first described the α-helix nearly 50 years ago, yet new features of its structure continue to be discovered, using peptide model systems, site-directed mutagenesis, advances in theory, the expansion of the Protein Data Bank and new experimental techniques. Helical peptides in solution form a vast number of structures, including fully helical, fully coiled and partly helical. To interpret peptide results quantitatively it is essential to use a helix/coil model that includes the stabilities of all these conformations. Our models now include terms for helix interiors, capping, side-chain

Abstract:
Chiral dopants are used in liquid crystal displays to introduce uniform helical alignment. VCD can provide unambiguous determination of the absolute configuration and structural details of such a dopant, while X-ray crystallography fails.
