Protein flexibility and dynamics using constraint theory.
A new approach is presented for determining the rigid regions in proteins and the flexible joints between them. The short-range forces in proteins are modeled as constraints and we use a recently developed formalism from graph theory to analyze flexibility in the bond network. Forces included in the analysis are the covalent bond-stretching and bond-bending forces, salt bridges, and hydrogen bo...
متن کاملProtein flexibility predictions using graph theory.
Techniques from graph theory are applied to analyze the bond networks in proteins and identify the flexible and rigid regions. The bond network consists of distance constraints defined by the covalent and hydrogen bonds and salt bridges in the protein, identified by geometric and energetic criteria. We use an algorithm that counts the degrees of freedom within this constraint network and that i...
متن کاملProtein flexibility using constraints from molecular dynamics simulations.
Proteins are held together in the native state by hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonds and interactions with the surrounding water, whose strength as well as spatial and temporal distribution affects protein flexibility and hence function. We study these effects using 10 ns molecular dynamics simulations of pure water and of two proteins, the glutamate receptor ligand binding domain and bar...

IT enabled organizations strive for overall improvement in performance with the use of tools capable of forecasting the stability and growth as well as failure. This paper contributes by introducing a technique and a model in Business process reengineering with Theory of constraints using dynamic workflow system enhanced with artificial intelligent ‘agents’ to observe the impact of flexibility ...
متن کاملThe flexibility and dynamics of protein disulfide isomerase
We have studied the mobility of the multidomain folding catalyst, protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), by a coarse-graining approach based on flexibility. We analyze our simulations of yeast PDI (yPDI) using measures of backbone movement, relative positions and orientations of domains, and distances between functional sites. We find that there is interdomain flexibility at every interdomain junct...
