Applications of Molecular Dynamics Simulation in Protein Study [PDF]

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Molecular Dynamics (MD) Simulations is increasingly used as a powerful tool to study protein structure-related questions. Starting from the early simulation study on the photoisomerization in rhodopsin in 1976, MD Simulations has been used to study ...

Dynamics of Proteins

Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft für physikalische Chemie, 1982
Theoretical methods for studying protein motions have been outlined and some examples have been given. Simulation methods have shown that structural fluctuations in proteins cover a wide range in their magnitudes and time scales. Some indication of their biological role has been given, but the most important and interesting applications to protein ...

Essential dynamics of proteins

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 1993
AbstractAnalysis of extended molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of lysozyme in vacuo and in aqueous solution reveals that it is possible to separate the configurational space into two subspaces: (1) an “essential” subspace containing only a few degrees of freedom in which anharmonic motion occurs that comprises most of the positional fluctuations; and

Protein Dynamism and Evolvability

Science, 2009
The traditional view that proteins possess absolute functional specificity and a single, fixed structure conflicts with their marked ability to adapt and evolve new functions and structures. We consider an alternative, “avant-garde view” in which proteins are conformationally dynamic and exhibit functional promiscuity.

Chaos in protein dynamics

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Genetics, 1997
MD simulations, currently the most detailed description of the dynamic evolution of proteins, are based on the repeated solution of a set of differential equations implementing Newton's second law. Many such systems are known to exhibit chaotic behavior, i.e., very small changes in initial conditions are amplified exponentially and lead to vastly ...

Protein-folding dynamics

Nature, 1976
In a discussion of the dynamics of protein folding two limiting models (random-search nucleation and chain propagation., diffusion–collision) are considered. It is suggested that the latter may have the dominant role in many proteins.

Dynamic personalities of proteins

Nature, 2007
Because proteins are central to cellular function, researchers have sought to uncover the secrets of how these complex macromolecules execute such a fascinating variety of functions. Although static structures are known for many proteins, the functions of proteins are governed ultimately by their dynamic character (or 'personality').

Dynamics of folded proteins

Nature, 1977
The dynamics of a folded globular protein (bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor) have been studied by solving the equations of motion for the atoms with an empirical potential energy function. The results provide the magnitude, correlations and decay of fluctuations about the average structure.
