    Abstract: The coupling of electron and proton transfer is an important controlling factor in radical proteins, such as photosystem II, ribinucleotide reductase, cytochrome oxidases, and DNA photolyase. This was investigated in model complexes in which a tyrosine or ...

    Abstract: The dynamics of one-electron oxidation of guanine (G) base mononucleotide and that in DNA have been investigated by pulse radiolysis. The radical cation (G^+.) of deoxyguanosine (dG), produced by oxidation with SO₄^-., rapidly deprotonates to form the ...

    Abstract: The proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from tyrosine covalently linked to a metal complex has been studied. The reaction was induced by laser flash excitation of the metal complex, and PCET was bidirectional, with electron transfer to the excited or ...
