Hybrid Local Molecular Orbital: Molecular Orbital Calculations for Open Shell Systems

Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation
Milica Feldt, Ricardo A Mata

Abstract

In this work we discuss first applications of the local molecular orbital:molecular orbital (LMOMO) scheme on open-shell systems, focusing on the advantages of isolating the orbital space of (or near) metal centers. We have used as a benchmark ligand exchange reactions, discussing the multireference character observed in local and canonical calculations, the impact of the local domain approximations, and the convergence of the hybrid scheme. After drawing some conclusions on how to build a selection for high level regions, we applied the method to the rate-determining steps in a nitrite reductase catalyzed reaction step. We have been able to obtain an overall description of the proton, electron transfers energetics occurring in the system which provide a picture for the first time in consistence with the experimental findings. The use of the hybrid scheme is particularly useful in the calculation of the electronic affinities which had previously only been calculated at lower levels of theory. These results show the potential of such local orbital approaches to deal with specific correlation effects confined to a metal center or their direct vicinity.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
