Metal Binding Sites in Proteins
Metal ions play a critical role in living systems. About one third of proteins need to bind metal for their stability and/or function. In this review, current sequence based and structure based methods for metal binding site prediction will be presented, with emphasis on the CHED and SeqCHED methods of prediction from apo-protein structures and protein sequences having homologs (even remote) in...
متن کاملEngineering metal-binding sites in proteins.
Metal-binding sites have been engineered into both de novo designed and naturally occurring proteins. Although the redesign of existing metal-binding sites in naturally occurring proteins still offers the most promise for a successful design, the more challenging goal of engineering metal-binding sites in de novo designed proteins and peptides is being achieved with increasing frequency. Creati...
متن کاملQuantum Chemical Calculations of EPR Parameters for Transition Metal Complexes
Modern density-functional methods for the calculation of electronic g-tensors have been implementedwithin the framework of the deMon code. All relevant perturbation operators are included. Particular emphasishas been placed on accurate yet efficient treatment of the two-electron spin-orbit terms. At an all-electronlevel, the computationally inexpensive atomic mean-field approximatio...
متن کاملHigh-Level Quantum Chemical Calculations of Ozone-Water Complexes
The structural and energetic characteristics of O3–H2O complexes have been investigated by means of B3LYP, MP2, MP4(SDTQ), CCSD(T) and QCISD(T) methods in conjunction with the AUG-cc-pVDZ and AUG-cc-pVTZ basis sets. Six conformers were found for the O3–H2O complex. Two different intermolecular interactions were expected to participate in the formation of complexes, namely conventional O∙∙∙H hyd...
متن کاملLigand Affinities Estimated by Quantum Chemical Calculations.
We present quantum chemical estimates of ligand-binding affinities performed, for the first time, at a level of theory for which there is a hope that dispersion and polarization effects are properly accounted for (MP2/cc-pVTZ) and at the same time effects of solvation, entropy, and sampling are included. We have studied the binding of seven biotin analogues to the avidin tetramer. The calculati...
