Applications of density functional theory to iron-containing molecules of bioinorganic interest

Abstract: The past decades have seen an explosive growth in the application of density functional theory (DFT) methods to molecular systems that are of interest in a variety of scientific fields. Owing to its balanced accuracy and efficiency, DFT plays particularly useful roles in the theoretical investigation of large molecules. Even for biological molecules such as proteins, DFT finds application in the form of, e.g., hybrid quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics (QM/MM), in which DFT may be used as a QM method to … Show more

“…Generally,t his complexi sd escribed as an iron(IV)-oxo complex coupledt oaporphyrin p-radical cation (formally derived from one-electron oxidationo ft he porphyrinate dianion P 2À ;P = TMTMP), thus often written as [(Fe IV O)(P + C)]. [4,8] This complex was investigated in detail by varioust echniques in order to confirm the presence of the oxoiron radical. [6,34,40] The electronic structure of compound Ia nd its modelsh as been extensivelyi nvestigated, [5] especially to validate the [(Fe IV O)(P + C)] description.…”

“…For even larger scales, such as lipidmediated protein organization and whole-cell modelling, supra-coarse-grain resolution or continuum modelling is needed. The figure inserts are (from smallest to largest) -a metallic cofactor with its molecular orbitals (image of the σ* 2 state taken from figure 1A of Hirao et al, 2014); respiratory chain complexes III and IV embedded in a mitochondrial membrane (see Fig. 3); multiple copies of the same proteins self-assembling in the bilayer plane (see groups, therefore effectively reducing the number of particles in a system.…”
