A new force field (ECEPP-05) for peptides, proteins, and organic molecules
Article Abstract:
Parametrization and testing of a new all-atom force field for organic molecules and peptides with fixed bond lengths and bond lengths are presented. The investigation of the torsional-angle and atom-positional root-mean-square deviations of the energy-minimized crystal structures from the corresponding X-ray model structures have indicated high accuracy of the force field.

Stabilization of sulfide radical cations through complexation with the peptide bond: mechanisms relevant to oxidation of proteins containing multiple methionine residues
Article Abstract:
Mechanisms involved in stabilization of sulfide radical cations through complexation with the peptide bond are described. It is proved that the one electron oxidation by [super .]OH radicals of a simple dipeptide containing two methionine residues leads to efficient formation of the Met(S..N) radicals.

Pulse radiolysis studies of intramolecular electron transfer in model peptides and proteins. 8. Trp(NH.+) to Tyr(O.) radical transformation in H-Trp-(Pro)n-Tyr-OH,n=3-5, series of peptides
Article Abstract:
Pulse radiolysis is used to study the kinetics of intramolecular long-range electron transfer between the protonated trytophan indolyl radical cation in equilibrium with its neutral form and tyrosine in aqueous H-Trp-(Pro)n-Tyr-OH,n=3-5 peptides.
