Do collective atomic fluctuations account for cooperative effects? Molecular dynamics studies of the U1A-RNA complex.
A complete understanding of gene expression relies on a comprehensive understanding of the protein-RNA recognition process. However, the study of protein-RNA recognition is complicated by many factors that contribute to both binding affinity and specificity, including structure, energetics, dynamical motions, and cooperative interactions. Several recent studies have suggested that energetic cou...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulation studies of induced fit and conformational capture in U1A-RNA binding: do molecular substates code for specificity?
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on stem loop 2 of U1 small nuclear RNA and a construct of the U1A protein were carried out to obtain predictions of the structures for the unbound forms in solution and to elucidate dynamical aspects of induced fit upon binding. A crystal structure of the complex between the U1A protein and stem loop 2 RNA and an NMR structure for the uncomplexed form of the ...
متن کاملA study of collective atomic fluctuations and cooperativity in the U1A-RNA complex based on molecular dynamics simulations.
Cooperative interactions play an important role in recognition and binding in macromolecular systems. In this study, we find that cross-correlated atomic fluctuations can be used to identify cooperative networks in a protein-RNA system. The dynamics of the RRM-containing protein U1A-stem loop 2 RNA complex have been calculated theoretically from a 10 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The s...
متن کاملIdentification of RNA-binding sites in artemin based on docking energy landscapes and molecular dynamics simulation
There are questions concerning the functions of artemin, an abundant stress protein found in Artemiaduring embryo development. It has been reported that artemin binds RNA at high temperatures in vitro, suggesting an RNA protective role. In this study, we investigated the possibility of the presence of RNA-bindingsites and their structural properties in artemin, using docking energy ...
متن کاملSynthesis, biological and molecular modeling studies of macrocyclic complexes of trivalent metal ions
The macrocyclic complexes of biological importance with power transition metals are synthesized by template methodology leading to the formation of the complex [MLX] X2; where L is macrocyclic ligand derived from 3,4-diaminotoluene, 2,4-thiazolidinedione, M=Cr (III) and Fe(III) X is Cl-, CH3COO- or NO3_.Characterisation of these complexes are through with the assistance of elemental analyses(CH...
