Capturing the Capture: Branching Ratios of O2 Addition in Isoprene Peroxy Radicals via Quasiclassical Trajectories

Abstract A central unresolved question in isoprene chemistry concerns the branching ratio between the α- and γ-addition channels of O2 capture by the Z,Z’-OH-allyl hydroperoxy radical forming second-generation peroxy radicals, which ultimately determines the respective importance...

Direct Visualization of a Hydroperoxy Intermediate in Fluorescent Protein Chromophore Maturation in PAmCherry1

Abstract Despite the widespread use of fluorescent proteins in bioimaging, the mechanism of oxidative chromophore maturation to form the tyrosine Cα═Cβ double bond remains unclear. In the photoactivatable fluorescent protein PAmCherry1, this double bond has not yet been formed pr...
