متن کاملCation–π–cation interactions in structural biology
Biological structures are stabilized by a variety of noncovalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonds, π –stacking, salt bridges or hydrophobic interactions. Besides hydrogen bonds and π– stacking, cation–π interactions between aromatic rings and positively charged groups have emerged as one of the most important interactions in structural biology. Although the role and energetic characteristic...
متن کاملSecondary Ammonium Agonists Make Dual Cation-π Interactions in α4β2 Nicotinic Receptors
A cation-π interaction between the ammonium group of an agonist and a conserved tryptophan termed TrpB is a near universal feature of agonist binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). TrpB is one of five residues that form the aromatic box of the agonist binding site, and for the prototype agonists ACh and nicotine, only TrpB makes a functional cation-π interaction. We report that,...
متن کاملStrong Cation···π Interactions Promote the Capture of Metal Ions within Metal-Seamed Nanocapsule
Thallium ions are transported to the interior of gallium-seamed pyrogallol[4]arene nanocapsules. In comparison to the capture of Cs ions, the extent of which depends on the type and position of the anion employed in the cesium salt, the enhanced strength of Tl···π vs Cs···π interactions facilitates permanent entrapment of Tl(+) ions on the capsule interior. "Stitching-up" the capsule seam with ...
متن کاملEffects of Structure and Partially Localization of the π Electron Clouds of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes on the Cation-π Interactions
A C102H30 graphene sheet has been rolled up to construct Single-Walled Carbon NanoTube Fragments (SWCNTFs) as parts of armchair carbon nanotubes by computational quantum chemistry methods. Non-covalent cation-π interactions of the Na+ cation on the central rings of SWCNTFs have investigated. The binding energies of the Na+-SWCNTF complexes versus ...
