Abstract: Potassium and sodium are generally considered inert ‘spectator’ ions for organic reactions. Here, we report rate constants for the acid-promoted hydrolysis of the seven dipeptides of glycine (G) and alanine (A) and an unexpected pattern… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0193595
Abstract: Background Polyamines have various biological functions including marked effects on the structure and function of genomic DNA molecules. Changes in the higher-order structure of DNA caused by polyamines are expected to be closely related to… read more here.
