| Abstract | β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD), which resides in the α-hemolysin (αHL) protein pore, can act as a molecular adapter in single-molecule exonuclease DNA sequencing approaches, where the different nucleotide binding behavior of β-CD is crucial for base discrimination. In the present contribution, the inclusion modes of β-CD towards four 2′-deoxyribonucleoside 5′-monophosphates (dNMPs) were investigated using quantum mechanics (QM) calculations. The calculated binding energy suggests that the binding affinity of dAMP to β-CD are highest among all the dNMPs in solution, in agreement with experimental results. Geometry analysis shows that β-CD in the dAMP complex undergoes a small conformational change, and weak interaction analysis indicates that there are small steric repulsion regions in β-CD. These results suggest that β-CD has lower geometric deformation energy in complexation with dAMP. Furthermore, topological analysis and weak interaction analysis suggest that the number and strength of intermolecular hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions are critical to dAMP binding, and they both make favorable contributions to the lower interaction energy. This work reveals the reason why β-CD prefers to bind dAMP rather than other dNMPs, while opening exciting perspectives for the design of novel β-CD-based molecular adapters in the single-molecule exonuclease method of sequencing DNA.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
