An all‐atom structure‐based potential for proteins: Bridging minimal models with all‐atom empirical forcefieldsProteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics - Tập 75 Số 2 - Trang 430-441 - 2009
Paul C. Whitford, Jeffrey K. Noel, Shachi Gosavi, Alexander Schug, Karissa Y. Sanbonmatsu, José N. Onuchic
AbstractProtein dynamics take place on many time and length scales.
Coarse‐grained structure‐based$ {\bf (G{\overline o})} $models utilize the
funneled energy landscape theory of protein folding to provide an understanding
of both long time and long length scale dynamics. All‐atom empirical forcefields
with explicit solvent can elucidate our understanding of short time dynamics
with high energetic... hiện toàn bộ
Collective dynamics of the ribosomal tunnel revealed by elastic network modelingProteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics - Tập 75 Số 4 - Trang 837-845 - 2009
Özge Kürkçüoğlu, Zeynep Kurkcuoglu, Pemra Doruker, Robert L. Jernigan
AbstractThe collective dynamics of the nascent polypeptide exit tunnel are
investigated with the computationally efficient elastic network model using
normal mode analysis. The calculated normal modes are considered individually
and in linear combinations with different coefficients mimicking the phase
angles between modes, in order to follow the mechanistic motions of tunnel wall
residues. The lo... hiện toàn bộ
What are the dielectric “constants” of proteins and how to validate electrostatic models?Proteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics - Tập 44 Số 4 - Trang 400-417 - 2001
Claudia Schütz, A. Warshel
AbstractImplicit models for evaluation of electrostatic energies in proteins
include dielectric constants that represent effect of the protein environment.
Unfortunately, the results obtained by such models are very sensitive to the
value used for the dielectric constant. Furthermore, the factors that determine
the optimal value of these constants are far from being obvious. This review
considers ... hiện toàn bộ
Crystallization and preliminary X‐ray diffraction studies of human salivary α‐amylaseProteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics - Tập 11 Số 3 - Trang 230-232 - 1991
N. Ramasubbu, K. K. Bhandary, Frank A. Scannapieco, M.J. Levine
AbstractNonglycosylated α‐amylase, a major component of human parotid saliva,
has been crystallized by the vapor diffusion technique using
2‐methyl‐2,4‐pentanediol as the precipitant in the presence of CaCl2 at pH 9.0.
The crystals are orthorhombic, space group P212121 with unit cell dimensions of
a = 53.3, b = 75.8, and c = 138.1 Å. The asymmetric unit contains one amylase
molecule. The solvent c... hiện toàn bộ
Long timestep dynamics of peptides by the dynamics driver approachProteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics - Tập 21 Số 4 - Trang 282-302 - 1995
Philippe Derreumaux, Tamar Schlick
AbstractPrevious experience with the Langevin/implicit‐Euler scheme for dynamics
(“LI”) on model systems (butane, water) has shown that LI is numerically stable
for timesteps in the 5–20 fs range but quenches high‐frequency modes. To explore
applications to polypeptides, we apply LI to model systems (several dipeptides,
a tetrapeptide, and a 13‐residue oligoalanine) and also develop a new dynamics... hiện toàn bộ
Computational approaches to study protein unfolding: Hen egg white lysozyme as a case studyProteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics - Tập 21 Số 3 - Trang 196-213 - 1995
Philippe H. Hünenberger, Alan E. Mark, Wilfred F. van Gunsteren
AbstractFour methods are compared to drive the unfolding of a protein: (1) high
temperature (T‐run), (2) high pressure (P‐run), (3) by imposing a gradual
increase in the mean radius of the protein using a penalty function added to the
physical interaction function (F‐run, radial force driven unfolding), and (4) by
weak coupling of the difference between the temperature of the radially outward
movi... hiện toàn bộ
Structure and internal dynamics of the bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor in aqueous solution from long‐time molecular dynamics simulationsProteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics - Tập 23 Số 1 - Trang 49-62 - 1995
Roger M. Brunne, Kurt D. Berndt, Peter Güntert, Kurt Wüthrich, Wilfred F. van Gunsteren
AbstractStructural and dynamic properties of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor
(BPTI) in aqueous solution are investigated using two molecular dynamics (MD)
simulations: one of 1.4 ns length and one of 0.8 ns length in which atom‐atom
distance bounds derived from NMR spectroscopy are included in the potential
energy function to make the trajectory satisfy these experimental data more
closely. Th... hiện toàn bộ
