A Theoretical Study of the Binding of [Re6Se8(OH)2(H2O)4] Rhenium Clusters to DNA Purine Base Guanine
Hexanuclear rhenium complexes are promising candidates for use as antitumor drugs. However, to date, there has been no investigation into the nature of their binding to DNA. In this study, density functional theory (DFT) was used to examine the binding of [Re6Se8(OH)2(H2O)4] to the DNA purine base g...
