Efficient DNA Cleavage Induced by RhIII(TMPyP)5+ in the Presence of Ascorbic Acid
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The ability of Rh(III) tetrakis-N-methylpyridyl porphyrin, RhIII(TMPyP)5+, to interact with and cleave DNA was, investigated by UV-visible, luminescence, circular dichroism (CD), electron spin resonance (ESR) and gel electrophoresis methods in the presence or absence of ascorbic acid. UV-absorption data showed that RhIII(TMPyP)5+ is capable of interacting with DNA, as indicated by the appearance of a red shift and hypochromicity of the Soret band. The CD data revealed that RhIII(TMPyP)5+ was capable of binding to DNA via an external binding mode. The RhIII(TMPyP)5+ showed fluorescence and phosphorescence at room temperature. The phosphorescence increased in the presence of DNA and this could be attributed to the shielding of the metal-porphyrin by DNA. Gel electrophoresis studies revealed that RhIII(TMPyP)5+ was only able to cleave DNA in the presence of the reducing agent ascorbic acid. ESR data indicated the formation of RhII(TMPyP)5+ by reduction of RhIII(TMPyP)5+ with ascorbic acid. The involvement of Rh(III)/Rh(II) species in catalytic DNA cleavage and a possible DNA cleavage mechanism is discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
