## Abstract __Nonviral gene therapy requires efficient vectors that are able to deliver nucleic acids inside the targeted cell nucleus. Developing new tools for the synthesis of supramolecular vectors with improved transfection efficiency and better biodistribution is therefore a crucial issue. Her

## Abstract We have shown previously that the Nβmethylpridyl group vibrations of waterβsoluble porphyrins, M(TMpyβP4), are shifted to lower frequencies (0.5β2.6 cm^β1^) as a result of coulombic interaction between the N^+^βCH~3~ group of M(TMpyβP4) and the PO~2~ group of a nucleic acid. We have now
A comparison of a new parallel block-implicit method and the parallel pressure correction procedure for the solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is presented. The block-implicit algorithm is based on a pressure equation. The system of non-linear equations is solved by Newton's meth
A comparative study has been undertaken between Hmb-protected amino acid and pseudoproline building block analogues for use in the solid phase synthesis of 'difficult' peptides. Both of these derivatives act by blocking inter-and intramolecular hydrogen bonding, which has been shown to be a major ca
In the context of the problem of nucleic acid-protein interactions, thermodynamic and geometrical parameters of complexes of methylated nucleic acid bases with acrylamide (as a model of the side chains of asparagine and glutamine) were investigated. Enthalpies of formation of nucleic acid base-acryl
