Chirality and Protein Folding
There are several simple criteria of folding to a native state in model proteins. One of them involves crossing of a threshold value of the root mean square deviation distance away from the native state. Another checks whether all native contacts are established, i.e. whether the interacting amino acids come closer than some characteristic distance. We use Go-like models of proteins and show th...
متن کاملProtein Stability, Folding, Disaggregation and Etiology of Conformational Malfunctions
Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...
متن کاملChirality-driven folding of short β-lactam pseudopeptides.
Novel enantiopure pseudopeptide models containing a central -(β-lactam)-(Aa)- scaffold characterized by the combined presence of an α-alkyl-α-amino-β-lactam (i+1) residue and a α-substituted (i + 2) amino acid have been readily synthesized from α-alkyl serines. The conformational analysis of such β-lactam pseudopeptides conducted in CDCl(3) and DMSO-d(6) solutions using 1D- and 2D-NMR technique...
متن کاملProtein folds and protein folding.
The classification of protein folds is necessarily based on the structural elements that distinguish domains. Classification of protein domains consists of two problems: the partition of structures into domains and the classification of domains into sets of similar structures (or folds). Although similar topologies may arise by convergent evolution, the similarity of their respective folding pa...
