C целью изучения молекулярной структуры металлизированной ДНК (М-ДНК) и механизмов проводимости в ней, нами проведен квантово-механический ab initio расчет электронной и пространственной структуры, термодинамических характеристик стекинг димера и тримера пар оснований нуклеиновых кислот c ионами цинка (AT)(CG) 2Zn2+ и (CG)(AT)(CG)3Zn2+, а также димера и тримера этих пар оснований (АТ)(CG) и (CG)(АТ)(CG) без иона цинка. Такая М-ДНК, с расположенными между основаниями ионами переходных металлов, способна проводить электрический ток и представляет большой интерес для нанотехнологий. Расчет выполнялся с помощью метода МР2 и пакета Gamess на кластере СКИТ-3 Института Кибернетики им. В.М. Глушкова НАН Украины (Rpeak=7.4 Tflops).

Metallized DNA (M-DNA) with transition metal ions placed between nucleic bases has the conductance ability and this is the fact of great interest for nanotechnology To study the molecular structure of M-DNA and conductance mechanisms in it the quantum-chemistry calculations were performed to obtain electronic and spatial structures, thermodynamic characteristics of stacking dimers, trimers and tetramers of nucleic acids base pairs, both with n zinc ions (n=2,3,4) together with hydroxyls and without such ions. The calculations of these properties of GC pairs with Mg2+, Ni2+ ,Cd2+ and hydroxyl were carried out too. Geometry optimisations of oligomers studied were performed at MP2 level of theory and by using M06 functional, being employed     6-31G* basis sets. The interaction energies were calculated at the usual scheme with including BSSE by using 6-31+G* basis sets.
Calculations performed at MP2 level of theory demonstrated that stacking oligomers of nucleic acid bases with zinc ions have bridges between base pairs. The inter-plane distance in the dimers, in trimers and in tetramers is equal to 3.2Å. The highest occupied molecular orbitals (НОМО) in dimer and trimer of base pairs with zinc ions include MOs of bases being adjacent in the stack .
The interaction energies between base pairs in stacking dimer without zinc ions (AT)(CG) and in stacking dimer with zinc ions (AT)(CG)·2Zn2+ are of 11.0 kcal/mol and 37.4 kcal/mol respectively. H-bond interaction energies in oligomers studied were calculated too.
Middle base pairs in stacking trimers and tetramer studied are more planar in comparison with outer pairs.

To study M-DNA physico-chemical prpoperties (such DNA with transition metal ions placed between the nucleic bases is capable to conduct an electric current) and its conductivity mechanisms we carried out ab initio quantum-mechanical calculations of electronic and spatial structure, thermodynamic characteristics, electronic transition energies of Adenine-Thymine (АТ) and Guanine-Cytosine (GC) base pair complexes with Zn2+and Ni2+, ATZnOH(2H2O) and GCZnOH(2H2O)clusters, (GC)(AT) and (CG)(AT) stacking dimers with 2Zn2+ , two hydroxyls and two water molecules.. The calculations were performed at MP2 level of theory using 6-31+G* and 6-31G* basis sets.
The interaction energy of Zn2+ in a triple complex with adenine and thymine is considerably higher, than one of imino-proton in АТ pair. Orbitals of Ni ion take part in forming HOMO and LUMO of AT and GC pairs with Ni2+ complexes.LUMO of triple ATZn+ complex includes adenine, thymine and Zn ion orbitals, that specifies electron delocalization within the complex in the excited state. The calculations of electronic transition energies has shown the decrease of the first singlet transition energies in complexes of АТ and GC pairs with Ni ion from 4.5 ev to 0.5 - 0.6 ev, that is the precondition of significant narrowing the band gap in M-DNA.
Calculations of (AT)(GC) and (AT)(CG) stacking dimers with 2Zn ions, two hydroxyls and two water molecules shown that Zn ions repulsion doesn’t occur as a results of a significant decrease of positive charges on Zn ions and existence of hydroxyl bridging. between Zn ions. in these dimers. Molecular structure of nucleic bases in stacking dimers are similar to ones of nucleic bases in ATZnOH (2H2O) and GCZnOH(2H2O) clusters. Zn ions creates 4 bonds (with N1 of purines , with N3 of pyrimidines and with hydroxyls and water molecules) in stacking dimers..Interaction energy between ATZnOH (H2O) and CGZnOH(H2O) is equal to 37.0 kcal/mol in (AT)(CG) stacking dimer. The first excited state energy is equal to 3.28ev (0.0026). in this dimer.

    To study physical properties of fragments of metallic DNA (M-DNA),  olecular and electronic structures and thermodynamic characteristics of adenine-thymine and guanine cytosine pairs with Zn2+ ion (the ion was placed between nucleic acid bases) and of components forming these pairs were calculated at МР2/6-31+G* level of theory. As well, calculations were performed for adenine-thymine-Zn2+-hydroxyl and guanine-cytosine-Zn2+ hydroxyl complexes. It was revealed that bond lengths changed in three- and four-member complexes: on the fragment close by the site of interaction with Zn2+ (N3-C2-N1-C6-N10 fragment) in adenine, on С2-N3-C4-C5-C6-N1 fragment on the pyrimidine ring and on C6 O10 in guanine, in comparison with neutral molecules. Charges on atoms changed at the same fragments. In the complexes calculated the interaction energies of base pairs of with Zn2+ are significantly higher than that of iminoproton with AT and GC pairs or that of Zn2+ with its hydrate shell (6 water molecules). HOMO and LUMO analysis of the ATZn+ triple complex and AT pair showed the increase of sizes of triple complex LUMO, which points to a possibility of electron delocalization over the whole complex. A mechanism of electric current in M-DNA is discussed.

Bloch point (BP) is a micromagnetic singularity, which plays a key role in dynamical switching process of the vortex state magnetic nanoparticle. The Bloch point dynamics is studied theoretically using spin-lattice simulations for two ultrafast processes:

(i) the magnetization reversal under the action of DC magnetic field;
(ii) the vortex core switching mediated by the creation and annihilation of the vortex-antivortex pair. The range of the nanodot sizes where the mechanism of the vortex switching, mediated by the Bloch point formation, takes place is computed. The structure of the static singularity is studied analytically.
