Gábor Csonka
Density functional theory applied to larger biomolecules

THESIS TOPIC PROPOSAL

Institute: Budapest University of Technology and Economics
bio, environmental and chemical engineering
George A. Olah Doctoral School of Chemistry and Chemical Technology

Thesis supervisor: Gábor Csonka
Location of studies (in Hungarian): BME Szervetlen és Analitikai Kémia Tanszék
Abbreviation of location of studies: BME


Description of the research topic:

Application of the density functional theory to calculate the conformational space and the energy hypersurface of larger biomolecules like oligo saccharides, glycopeptides, DNA, RNA model compounds. We focus ont he proper description of the weak intra- and itermolecular interactions. These results are useful in pharmaceutical chemistry and molecular biology apllications. The proposed work requires good mathematical and computational skills and good understanding of electron density functional theory (e.g. LSDA, GGA. meta-GGA, hyper-GGA and RPA) and computational basis sets (DZ, TZ, QZ, diffuse).
