We report on interactions of cell free double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) with a selected subgroup of Microporous Coordination Polymers (MCPs). In particular, we have studied the influence of different metal ion constituents and chemically modified linkers using a set of five benzene carboxylate-based MCPs. Our results suggest that the DNA moiety can be structurally modified in two different ways: by direct MCPs–dsDNA interaction and/or through photosensitized processes. The extent of the observed damage was found to be strongly dependent on the charge density of the material. The potential use of the MCPs tested as inert carriers of photosensitizers was demonstrated by analyzing the interaction between dsDNA and harmine-loaded Cr-based materials, both in the absence of light and upon UVA irradiation.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
