Damped-dynamics flexible fitting.
In fitting atomic structures into EM maps, it often happens that the map corresponds to a different conformation of the structure. We have developed a new methodology to handle these situations that preserves the covalent geometry of the structure and allows the modeling of large deformations. The first goal is achieved by working in generalized coordinates (positional and internal coordinates)...
متن کاملThe stoichiometry of ribosomal translocation.
Fusidic acid does not inhibit the translocation of N-acetylphenylalanyl-tRNA (N-acetyl-Phe-tRNA), bound nonenzymitally to the ribosomal A-site, when the amount of ribosomes in the reaction mixture is not sufficient to trap all the available elongation factor G (EF-G) in the form of GDP ‘EF-G .fusidic acid .ribosome complexes. Moreover, since only those ribosomes in the reaction mixture that are...
متن کاملFast fitting to low resolution density maps: elucidating large-scale motions of the ribosome
Determining the conformational rearrangements of large macromolecules is challenging experimentally and computationally. Case in point is the ribosome; it has been observed by high-resolution crystallography in several states, but many others are known only from low-resolution methods including cryo-electron microscopy. Combining these data into dynamical trajectories that may aid understanding...
متن کاملNURBS Surface Fitting Using Orthogonal Coordinate Transform and Applications NURBS Surface Fitting Using Orthogonal Coordinate Transform and Applications
Constructing a CAD model from a physical model plays a key role in some productdevelopment processes. To be presented is an “indirect” method of fitting NURBS-surfaces for rotational-freeform shapes: 1) Cloud-of-points data representing a rotational-freeform shape are transformed into an orthogonal-coordinate (sphericalor cylindrical-) system, 2) a single-valued Bspline surface is fitted to the...
متن کاملRibosomal Translocation: LepA Does It Backwards
During translation, mRNA is threaded through the ribosome in precise and directional three-nucleotide steps. A recent paper identifies a new GTPase, LepA, which catalyzes unexpected one-codon backward movement on the ribosome.
