In the past decade many structures of nucleic acids have been determined, which have contributed to our understanding of their biological functions. However, crystals containing nucleic acids often diffract X-rays poorly. This makes electron-density interpretation difficult and requires a great deal of expertise in cr…

In this work, we studied enzyme-catalyzed oxidation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) produced by the high-pressure carbon monoxide (HiPco) method. While oxidation via strong acids introduced defect sites on SWCNTs and suppressed their near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence, our results indicated that the fluoresce…
