Investigation of dinuclear Mn (II) model complexes by multifrequency EPR spectroscopy and theoretical simulations /

Many hydrolase enzymes utilize a dinuclear metal center to catalyze chemical reactions. Most of the enzymes contain either Mg(II) or Zn(II) in their native state, but retain some activity when substituted with other divalent metals such as Mn(II). Manganese can be used as a paramagnetic probe to s...
