    Nonbonded interactions in membrane-active cyclic biopolymers. III. Analogs of valinomycin (1979)
    New York, NY : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: Several analogs of valinomycin have been simulated. These are analogs obtained by changing the configuration of the amino acid and hydroxy acid residues one at a time. Nonbonded interactions have been calculated for three conformations of each analog. The electrostatic and polarization contributions to the energy are conformation selective, whereas the Pauli repulsion is the only component which is isomer selective. For the ring chirality considered here the analog of valinomycin having all the three L-valyl residues replaced by D-valyl residues is predicted to be frozen in a “top open” conformation.

    Calculation of the minimum energy conformation of biomolecules by using a global optimization technique. V. Preferred conformations of the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (1986)

    Notes: The preferred conformations of the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) have been calculated by the global optimization method proposed earlier by us. [G. Subba Rao, R. S. Tyagi, and R. K. Mishra, J. Theor. Biol. 90, 377 (1981)]. The potential function used comprises the electrostatic, nonbonded, torsional and hydrogen-bonding terms. The results are in good agreement with the crystal structures of TRH. No intramolecular hydrogen bonding is found to occur.

    Notes: A possible mode for the capture of a cation by the carrier molecule valinomycin has been simulated. The intramolecular nonbonded energy and the binding energy for a centrally located potassium ion at different stages in the capture process have been evaluated using a method proposed earlier. Contrary to intuitive expectations the open conformation of valinomycin is also found to have a strong affinity for K+. There appears to be a rather high potential barrier between the open and closed symmetric conformations.

    Calculation of the minimum energy conformation of acetylcholine using a global optimization technique (1981)
    New York, NY : Wiley-Blackwell
    International Journal of Quantum Chemistry 20 (1981), S. 273-279

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: The conformational energy of acetylcholine is minimized with respect to the distances between nonbonded atoms with the help of the Bremermann method of unconstrained global optimization. The set of distances for which the energy is the absolute minimum is then used to calculate the coordinates of all the atoms and hence the conformation of the molecule. The simplest type of potential function, namely the classical potential function is chosen for the calculation. The major advantages of this method are (i) that the starting point need not be close to the actual solution, (ii) that it gives the global minimum, irrespective of the starting point, (iii) that it is very general and can be used for any type of potential function, and (iv) that it does not require the computation of gradients. The results obtained are in very good agreement with those of other workers.

    Interaction between photons, “trapped electron” and vibronic excitation (1985)
    New York, NY : Wiley-Blackwell
    International Journal of Quantum Chemistry 27 (1985), S. 303-321

    Notes: The role of “trapped electron,” photon, and vibronic state coupling has been worked out in relation to an aspect of cancer, namely, to the activity of an anticancer drug. The main emphasis for such study comes from the fact that in cancerous systems the participation of usual electronic states of the molecule may not be sufficient. Because of disorder in the cancer tumour, additional states, viz. trapped electron states, could be formed in the manner of localised states in solids. The drug activity of mitomycin C obtained in this way agrees with the experimental values. An additional feature of the study is that it shows that it will be effective mainly in the initial phases of cancer.
