Molecular dynamics simulation in virus research [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Virus replication in the host proceeds by chains of interactions between viral and host proteins. The interactions are deeply influenced by host immune molecules and anti-viral compounds, as well as by mutations in viral proteins. To understand how these interactions proceed mechanically and how they are influenced by mutations, one needs to know the ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

The structural integrity of human TFF1 under reducing conditions

open access: yesRedox Biology
The trefoil factor family (TFF) comprises three secretory peptides (TFF1, TFF2, TFF3) that regulate diverse physiological processes to maintain gastrointestinal mucosal integrity and homeostasis.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Molecular dynamics simulations of complex systems including HIV-1 protease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Advances in supercomputer architectures have resulted in a situation where many scienti fic codes are used on systems whose performance characteristics di ffer considerably from the platform they were developed and optimised for.

Acceleration of Coarse Grain Molecular Dynamics on GPU Architectures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Coarse grain (CG) molecular models have been proposed to simulate complex sys- tems with lower computational overheads and longer timescales with respect to atom- istic level models.

Computational Spectroscopy and Reaction Dynamics

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2011
Physico- and bio-chemical processes on the femto- to picosecond time scale are ideally suited to be investigated with all-atom simulations.

Electrostatic screening in molecular dynamics simulations [PDF]

open access: yes"Protein Engineering, Design and Selection", 1991
The screened Coulombic potential has been shown to describe satisfactorily equilibrium properties like pK shifts, the effects of charged groups on redox potentials and binding constants of metal ions. To test how well the screening of the electrostatic potential describes the dynamical trajectory of a macromolecular system, a series of comparative ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Molecular dynamics simulation study of the binding of purine bases to the aptamer domain of the guanine sensing riboswitch [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Riboswitches are a novel class of genetic control elements that function through the direct interaction of small metabolite molecules with structured RNA elements.
