Abstract
The collagen-integrin interactions are mediated by the doubly charged Mg2+ cation. In nature this cation seems to have the optimal binding strength to stabilize this complex. It is essential that the binding is not too weak so that the complex becomes unstable, however, it is also of importance that the ligand-receptor binding is still labile enough so that the ligand can separate from the receptor in a suited environment. In the case of crystal growing for experimentally useful integrin-collagen fragment complexes it turned out that Co2+ cations are ideal mediators to form stable complexes for such experiments. Although, one can argue that Co2+ is in this context an artificial cation, however, it is now of special interest to test the impact of this cation in cell-culture experiments focusing on integrin-ligand interactions. In order to examine, in particular, the role cobalt ions we have studied a Co2+ based model system using quantum chemical calculations. Thereby, we have shown that hybrid and long-range corrected functional, which are approximations provide already a sufficient level of accuracy. It is of interest to study a potential impact of cations on the binding of collagen-fragments including collagens from various species because different integrins have numerous biological functions (e.g. Integrin - NCAM (Neural cell adhesion molecule) interactions) and are triggered by intact and degraded collagen fragments. Since integrin-carbohydrate interactions play a key role when bio-medical problems such as tumor cell adhesion and virus-host cell infections have to be addressed on a sub-molecular level it is essential to understand the interactions with heavy-metal ions also at the sub-atomic level. Our findings open new routes, especially, in the fields of tissue repair and neuro-oncology for example for cell-culture experiments with different ions. Since Co2+ ions seem to bind stronger to integrin than Mg2+ ions it should be feasible to exchange these cations in suited tumor tissues although different cations are present in other metalloproteins which are active in such tissues. Various staining methods can be applied to document the interactions of integrins with carbohydrate chains and other target structures. Thereby, it is possible to study a potential impact of these interactions on biological functions. It was therefore necessary to figure out first which histological-glycobiological experimental settings of tumor cells are suited for our purpose. Since the interactions of several metalloproteins (integrin, ADAM12) with polysialic acid and the HNK-1 epitope play a crucial role in tumor tissues selected staining methods are proper tools to obtain essential information about the impact of the metal ions under study.

Abstract
Metal dithiolene complexes—M(dmit)2—are key building blocks for magnetic, conducting, and optical molecular materials, with singular electronic structures resulting from the mixing of the metal and dmit ligand orbitals. Their use in the design of magnetic and conducting materials is linked to the control of the unpaired electrons and their localized/delocalized nature. It has been recently found that UV–Vis light can control the spin distribution of some [Cu(dmit)2]−2 salts in a direct and reversible way. In this work, we study the optical response of these salts and the origin of the differences observed in the EPR spectra under UV–Vis irradiation by means of wave function-based quantum chemistry methods. The low-lying states of the complex have been characterized and the electronic transitions with a non-negligible oscillator strength have been identified. The population of the corresponding excited states promoted by the UV–Vis absorption produces significant changes in the spin distribution, and could explain the changes observed in the system upon illumination. The interaction between neighbor [Cu(dmit)2]−2 complexes is weakly ferromagnetic, consistent with the relative orientation of the magnetic orbitals and the crystal packing, but in disagreement with previous assignments. Our results put in evidence the complex electronic structure of the [Cu(dmit)2]−2 radical and the relevance of a multideterminantal approach for an adequate analysis of their properties.
