Coupling between Catalytic Loop Motions and Enzyme Global Dynamics
Catalytic loop motions facilitate substrate recognition and binding in many enzymes. While these motions appear to be highly flexible, their functional significance suggests that structure-encoded preferences may play a role in selecting particular mechanisms of motions. We performed an extensive study on a set of enzymes to assess whether the collective/global dynamics, as predicted by elastic...
متن کاملCorrelated Motions and Residual Frustration in Thrombin
Thrombin is the central protease in the cascade of blood coagulation proteases. The structure of thrombin consists of a double β-barrel core surrounded by connecting loops and helices. Compared to chymotrypsin, thrombin has more extended loops that are thought to have arisen from insertions in the serine protease that evolved to impart greater specificity. Previous experiments showed thermodyna...
متن کاملDynamics of thermal vibrational motions and stringlike jump motions in three-dimensional glass-forming liquids.
Using molecular dynamics simulation on a glass-forming liquid in three dimensions, we investigate the thermal vibrational motions, the configuration changes caused by stringlike jump motions, and their close correlations. The heterogeneous vibrational motions are visualized in terms of a vibration length Si(t) defined for each particle i. The structure factor for the inhomogeneity of Si(t)(2) i...
متن کاملInterpreting correlated motions using normal mode analysis.
With the increased popularity of normal mode analyses in structural biology, it is important to carefully consider how to best utilize the results for gaining biological insights without over interpretation. The discussion in this article argues that for the purpose of identifying correlated motions in biomolecules, a case separate from concomitant conformational changes of structural motifs, i...
متن کاملCorrelated atomic motions in glassy selenium.
The elastic and total (energy-integrated) structure factors for glassy selenium have been measured by means of neutron spectroscopy within the temperature range 15 K& T & 310 K. The correlated nature of the atomic vibrations gives rise to marked features in the total (energy-integrated) inelastic structure factors defined as the difference between the total and elastic intensities. Also, both s...
