Comparison of the Intrinsic Dynamics of Proteins Involved in Metabolic Pathways Using Coarse-Grained Normal Mode Analysis
(2015-04)Protein dynamics play an important role in molecular recognition and catalysis. Each protein structure has unique dynamics encoded by its primary sequence. The collective intrinsic dynamics of a protein, which is defined ... -
Exploring the Interplay of Dynamics and Catalysis in Escherichia coli Prolyl-tRNA Synthetase
(2015-04)We are using quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical approaches to model and compute energetics of adenylate formation reaction in enzyme and enzyme-free system. Herein, we have presented the preliminary results of our ... -
Exploring the Interplay of Dynamics and Catalysis in Escherichia coli Prolyl-tRNA Synthetase using Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanical Simulations
(2017-03-20)The intrinsic dynamics that are inherent in proteins are known to be critical for many important biochemical processes. However, there is still limited information regarding how dynamics favor enzymes to achieve their ... -
Investigating the Effects of Molecular Crowding on Protein Structure using Atomic Force Microscopy
(2021-04)To explore the structure-dynamics-function relationship in proteins, most studies are usually conducted in simple salt-buffer solutions, however, the interior of a cell is densely crowded. The concentration of macromolecular ... -
Normal Mode Study of the Internal Dynamics of Various Classes of Cytochrome P450 Enzymes
(2014-04)The purpose of this study was to investigate the Cytochrome P450(CYP) enzymes. They constitute a diverse superfamily of more than 8,700 proteins which share a common tertiary fold and only 20% sequence homology. These ...
