Amino acid gas phase circular dichroism and implications for the origin of biomolecular asymmetry

Cornelia Meinert et al.

Summary: This study reports on circular dichroism (CD) and anisotropy spectra of amino acids recorded in the gas phase, with any asymmetry solely determined by genuine electromagnetic transition moments. The discovery of gas phase glycine in a cometary coma may provide insights into gas phase asymmetric photochemical reactions in the life cycle of interstellar gas and dust, at the origin of the enantiomeric selection of life's l-amino acids. Investigating the chiroptical properties of amino acids in the gas phase is challenging due to the low vapor pressure of these molecules.

Conformer-dependent vacuum ultraviolet photodynamics and chiral asymmetries in pure enantiomers of gas phase proline

Rim Hadidi et al.

Summary: The study investigates the unique properties of proline in the vacuum ultraviolet photoionization process, revealing intense conformer-specific PECD effects. The findings provide experimental evidence for the refinement of the conformational landscape and energetic ordering of proline, as well as discuss the potential implications of its chiroptical behavior in the origin of life's homochirality.

Site-selective soft X-ray absorption as a tool to study protonation and electronic structure of gas-phase DNA

Xin Wang et al.

Summary: The conformation and electronic structure of gas-phase oligonucleotides are strongly influenced by the protonation site, with the A-N1 protonated system showing better agreement between experiment and theory. An inverse site sensitivity was observed, with a substantially reduced yield of nucleobase fragments containing the absorption site, which could be explained by non-statistical fragmentation processes localized on the photoabsorbing nucleobase.
