Modulation of a Protein Free-Energy Landscape by Circular Permutation
Circular permutations usually retain the native structure and function of a protein while inevitably perturbing its folding dynamics. By using simulations with a structure-based model and a rigorous methodology to determine free-energy surfaces from trajectories, we evaluate the effect of a circular permutation on the free-energy landscape of the protein T4 lysozyme. We observe changes which, a...
متن کاملTuning Cooperativity on the Free Energy Landscape of Protein Folding.
Understanding the origin of the cooperativity seemingly inherent in a folding or unfolding reaction has been a major challenge. In particular, the relationship between folding cooperativity and stability is poorly understood. In this study, native state hydrogen exchange in conjunction with mass spectrometry has been used to explore the free energy landscape accessible to the small protein mone...
متن کاملFree-energy landscape of protein oligomerization from atomistic simulations.
In the realm of protein-protein interactions, the assembly process of homooligomers plays a fundamental role because the majority of proteins fall into this category. A comprehensive understanding of this multistep process requires the characterization of the driving molecular interactions and the transient intermediate species. The latter are often short-lived and thus remain elusive to most e...
متن کاملQuantifying Nonnative Interactions in the Protein-Folding Free-Energy Landscape.
Protein folding is a central problem in biological physics. Energetic roughness is an important aspect that controls protein-folding stability and kinetics. The roughness is associated with conflicting interactions in the protein and is also known as frustration. Recent studies indicate that an addition of a small amount of energetic frustration may enhance folding speed for certain proteins. I...
متن کاملProtein energy landscape roughness.
The 'new view' of proteins sees protein reactions as parallel processes occurring along funnelled energy landscapes. These landscapes are generally not smooth, but are superimposed by hills and valleys of different heights and widths leading to roughness on the energy surface. In the present paper, we describe the origins of protein energy landscape roughness, measurements of its scale and its ...
