MAGNETISATION AND ELECTRON SPIN RESONANCE STUDIES OF TETRAHEDRAL AMORPHOUS CARBON

The magnetisation and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum of two specimens of tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C), deposited from a filtered cathodic arc, were measured over a wide temperature range. The magnetisation was found to consist of superparamagnetic, paramagnetic and diamagnetic contributions. The superparamagnetic contribution resembled that recently found in carbon prepared from ...

Pulsed Electron Double Resonance in Structural Studies of Spin-Labeled Nucleic Acids

This review deals with the application of the pulsed electron double resonance (PELDOR) method to studies of spin-labeled DNA and RNA with complicated spatial structures, such as tetramers, aptamers, riboswitches, and three- and four-way junctions. The use of this method for studying DNA damage sites is also described.

Radiation damage and free radical production in irradiated ribonuclease.

It is probable that transient free radical states are implicated in the chain of events leading to the production of radiation damage. In solids and in dry biological materials, these free radicals are comparatively stable and have been studied by a number of workers in materials of biological interest, including biochemicals (1, 2), bacterial spores (3), and seeds (4, 5). The objective of such...

Site-Directed Spin Labeling for EPR Studies of Nucleic Acids

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy has emerged as a valuable technique to study the structure and dynamics of nucleic acids and their complexes with other biomolecules. EPR studies require incorporation of stable free radicals (spin labels), usually aminoxyl radicals (nitroxides), at specific sites in the nucleic acids using site-directed spin labeling (SDSL). In addition to the...

Some Radiation Effects on Dna and Its Constituents.

The first use of electron spin resonance for the study of radiation effects on the nucleic acids and their constituents was made by Shields and Gordy', 2on powdered samples. Quantitative measurements of the free-radical yield in powdered samples have recently been made by Muller.3 In an effort to gain more specific information with this method about the effects of radiation on these genetically...
