A Computational Study of Calcium(II) and Copper(II) Ion Binding to the Hyaluronate Molecule

The hyaluronate molecule is a negatively charged polysaccharide that performs a plethora of physiological functions in many cell tissues depending on its conformation. In the present paper, molecular modeling at three levels of theory and two basis sets was used to gain a deeper insight in the compl...
