Metal ions and complexes that hydrolyze peptides under nondenaturing conditions of temperature and pH hold great promise for use in protein structural studies. However, the extreme stability of the peptide amide bond has placed limits on the number of reagents available. In addition, the development
The Zn 2Ψ -glutathione system is studied as a model for metal-peptide systems where some critical factors must be considered when using voltammetric techniques for the determination of stability constants. These factors are the presence of side reactions (in this case, both the protonation of glutat
## Abstract Two complementary oligonucleotides were conjugated with terpyridine ligands at their nearby 5β²β and 3β²βends. Addition of a stoichiometric amount of a transition metal (Zn^2+^, Fe^2+^) resulted in a large increase in the melting temperature of the duplex. The conjugation of TPY to stemβl
