A chance insight into phosgene toxicity

E. Daplan, E. Rodriguez, N. Lane, L. Turin

The paper uses ESR spectroscopy on fruit flies to show phosgene causes Mn(II) hyperfine signals linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and toxicity.

Free radical production induced by visible light in live fruit flies

E. Daplan, L. Turin

This study shows visible light induces free radical production in Drosophila melanogaster, with the response varying by wavelength and not solely dependent on eumelanin content.

The Effect of Anesthesia Gases on the Oxygen Reduction Reaction

A. Gupta, Y. Sang, C. Fontanesi, L. Turin, R. Naaman

This paper investigates how general anesthesia gases affect the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) by reducing its efficiency and altering reaction products through spin depolarization.

Evidence for Free Radical Drug Ligands in class A G-protein Coupled Receptors

L. Turin, E. M. C. Skoulakis, A. P. Horsfield, A. Gehrckens

The paper identifies three cationic ligands in GPCRs that exist as neutral radicals rather than closed shell cations, suggesting a new mechanism for GPCR function.

Gated electron transport in rhodopsin and its relevance to GPCR activation

A. S. Gehrckens, A. P. Horsfield, E. Skoulakis, L. Turin

The paper identifies a gated electron transfer mechanism in rhodopsin using density-functional theory, suggesting its relevance to GPCR activation and olfactory receptors.
