Computer Aided Molecular Modeling Of Membrane Metalloprotease
Molecular modeling is a set of computational techniques for construction of 3D structure of a protein especially membrane bound proteins whose structures can not be elucidated using experimental techniques. These techniques has been applied in the study of membrane metalloproteases for comparing wild and mutated enzymes, docking inhibitors in the catalytic site and examination of binding pocket...

متن کاملSpecific Ion Binding at Phospholipid Membrane Surfaces.
Metal cations are ubiquitous components in biological environments and play an important role in regulating cellular functions and membrane properties. By applying metadynamics simulations, we have performed systematic free energy calculations of Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+), and Mg(2+) bound to phospholipid membrane surfaces for the first time. The free energy landscapes unveil specific binding behavio...
متن کاملDNA at membrane surfaces: an experimental overview
Atomic force microscopy studies of DNA attached to rigid surfaces were initially motivated by the development of methods which would stretch DNA for the purposes of rapid sequencing. Currently there is much interest in studies of multilayers of DNA chains self-assembled on membranes which form spontaneously when DNA adsorbs onto oppositely charged cationic liposomes (CLs). A major motivation fo...
متن کاملCross-Linking of Glycolipids in Erythrocyte Ghost Membrane*
Human erythrocyte ghosts were chemically cross-linked with a family of bifunctional cross-linking reagents, imidoesters. Since the reagents are identical in their chemical structures, except for the number of methylene groups, they differ by that distance between the functional groups. The maximum distance is 4.9 A in dimethyl malonimidate, 6.1 A in dimethyl succinimidate, 8.6 A in dimethyl adi...
