Here, we consider the effect of surface polarization on electrolytes in a slab geometry by combining the MR approach to polarization with Poisson-Boltzmann theory. Due to the coupling of bulk and surface fields, not only is the electrostatics modified by polarization, but maybe even more importantly, vice versa: a finite polarization at the wall is sufficient to generate a finite electrostatic potential even in the absence of net charges on the wall.

We then assessed their performance for the prediction of xCT excitation energies. Thanks to self-consistency, our methods yield small errors relative to high-level coupled cluster methods and outperform other same scaling (N5) methods, such as CC2 and ADC(2).

Perturbations around physiological pH conditions can lead to changes in the protonation states of titratable histone residues, impacting nucleosome surface electrostatic potentials and interactions. However, the effects of proton uptake or release of histone ionizable groups on nucleosome-partner protein interactions and higher-order chromatin structures remain largely unexplored. Here, we conducted comprehensive analyses of histone titratable residue pKa values in various nucleosome contexts, utilizing 96 experimentally determined complex structures. We revealed that pH-induced changes in histone residue protonation states modulated nucleosome surface electrostatic potentials and significantly influenced nucleosome-partner protein interactions. Furthermore, we observed that proton uptake or release often accompanied nucleosome-partner protein interactions, facilitating their binding processes. In addition, our findings suggest that alterations in histone protonation can also regulate nucleosome self-association, thereby modulating the organization and dynamics of higher-order chromatin structure.

Consequently, the variation principle of MSDFT can be rigorously defined within an appropriate domain of matrix densities, thereby providing a solid framework for DFT of both the ground state and excited states.

The effects are shown for propane and diethyl ether as representative examples of potential hyperpolarized MRI contrast agents, but the findings of this work are equally applicable to other multispin systems in the liquid or gas phase. These results are relevant to both adiabatic longitudinal transport after dissociation engenders net alignment (ALTADENA) experiments (where 1H nuclei are polarized) and MFC protocols used to transfer parahydrogen spin order to a heteronucleus such as 13C. The investigated effects should be incorporated for a correct evaluation of both the maximum possible NMR signal enhancement and the pairwise selectivity, which are useful in the context of mechanistic studies in the field of catalytic hydrogenation. Among signal enhancement damping factors in ALTADENA, such as T1 relaxation and insufficient adiabaticity of a field sweep, the inherent loss of net magnetization in spin systems containing magnetically equivalent protons (especially in PHIP systems commonly used for mechanistic studies such as propene or propane) has not been thoroughly considered and needs to be clarified.
