pH dependent ultrafast photodynamics of p-hydroxyphenacyl: Deprotonation accelerates the photo-uncaging reaction - Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (RSC Publishing) DOI:10.1039/D5CP01049G

You think pH does not influence reaction dynamics? Think again- here we show how photochemistry is accelerated by orders of magnitude (from <1ns to <1ps) just because of one hydrogen less - #paper #ultrafast #photocages pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Structural Insights into Spare-Tire DNA G-Quadruplex from the Human VEGF Promoter The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promoter region, which is involved in cancer progression, contains guanine-rich sequences capable of forming G-quadruplex (G4) structures. G4s play a crit...

Another publication on DNA G-quadruplexes in collaboration with the Heckel group is out! 🎉
