Researchers at the University of Waterloo have produced experimental evidence that quantum-level effects can alter the ...

Proton transfer dynamics in nucleic acids underpin several fundamental aspects of genetic stability and variation. This process involves the movement of protons along hydrogen bonds connecting ...

This study is led by Dr. Yunxiang Lin (Anhui University), Dr. Xiyu Li (Great Bay university), Dr. Hengjie Liu, and Prof. Li Song (University of Science and Technology of China). In this work, the ...

Protons are the basis of bioenergetics. We know them, in our everyday life, from the pH values we see on various soaps and lotions. But the ability to move them through biological systems is essential ...

Chemists from St. Petersburg University has developed a new family of luminescent iridium complexes that, for the first time, realize a unique mechanism of photoactivated proton transfer. In the ...
