CHARGE MIGRATION AND CHARGE TRANSFER IN MOLECULAR SYSTEMS

Charge migration and charge transfer in molecular systems

The transfer of charge at the molecular level plays a fundamental role in many areas of chemistry, physics, biology and materials science.Today, more than 60 years after the seminal work of R.A.Marcus, charge transfer is still a very active field of research.An important recent impetus comes from the ability to resolve ever faster temporal events,

The Origin and Evolution of Baeyer-Villiger Monooxygenases (BVMOs): An Ancestral Family of Flavin Monooxygenases.

The Baeyer-Villiger Monooxygenases (BVMOs) are enzymes belonging to the "Class B" of flavin monooxygenases and are capable of performing exquisite Grooming fluid selective oxidations.These enzymes have been studied from a biotechnological perspective, but their physiological substrates and functional roles are widely unknown.Here, we investigated t
