Figure 7-20 (A) Subunit assembly of two C3 catalytic trimers (green) and three R2 regulatory dimers around the periphery in aspartate carbamoyltransferase. After Krause et a/.109 Courtesy of William N. Lipscomb. The aspartate-and carbamoylphosphate-binding domains of the catalytic subunits are labeled Asp and CP, respectivley, while the zinc and allosteric domains of the regulatory subunits are labeled Alio and Zn, respectively. (B) Ribbon drawing of a single pair of regulatory (left) and catalytic (right) subunits with the structural domains labeled. MolScript drawing from Thomas et al.no...

These methods appear rather simple, yet they were the starting point of a long evolution. Gilles Klopman, whose research interests at Case-Western Reserve University later turned to modeling bioactive molecules, was the first to use Sandorfy s methods. Kenichi Fukui made extensive use of them in his well-known work on the structures and reactions of saturated hydrocarbons and their derivatives. Fukui added his frontier orbital considerations. Around 1959 the milieu of developments in quantum chemistry contributed to inspire William N. Lipscomb to conceive the extended Hiickel method, which was subsequently implemented by Lawrence L. Lohr and Roald Hoffmann.83 Soon thereafter, John Pople and his coworkers introduced self-consistent field methods based on the zero-differential overlap approximation.815... 

Aden and Frank were my advisers at Syracuse University. They were the best advisers any graduate students can possibly dream to have. In particular, Aden contributed substantially to my financial needs through his King s Laboratory in Syracuse. Aden also arranged for me to continue my education as a post-doctoral research fellow at Harvard University under William N. Lipscomb who is a Nobel laureate for his contribution in boron-chemistry.
