Peptide-Induced Amyloid-Like Conformational Transitions in Proteins
Changes in protein conformation can occur both as part of normal protein functioning and during disease pathogenesis. The most common conformational diseases are amyloidoses. Sometimes the development of a number of diseases which are not traditionally related to amyloidoses is associated with amyloid-like conformational transitions of proteins. Also, amyloid-like aggregates take part in normal...
متن کاملGeometry-based sampling of conformational transitions in proteins.
The fast and accurate prediction of protein flexibility is one of the major challenges in protein science. Enzyme activity, signal transduction, and ligand binding are dynamic processes involving essential conformational changes ranging from small side chain fluctuations to reorientations of entire domains. In the present work, we describe a reimplementation of the CONCOORD approach, termed tCO...
متن کاملFrustration-guided motion planning reveals conformational transitions in proteins.
Proteins exist as conformational ensembles, exchanging between substates to perform their function. Advances in experimental techniques yield unprecedented access to structural snapshots of their conformational landscape. However, computationally modeling how proteins use collective motions to transition between substates is challenging owing to a rugged landscape and large energy barriers. Her...
متن کاملAccurate Determination of Conformational Transitions in Oligomeric Membrane Proteins.
The structural dynamics governing collective motions in oligomeric membrane proteins play key roles in vital biomolecular processes at cellular membranes. In this study, we present a structural refinement approach that combines solid-state NMR experiments and molecular simulations to accurately describe concerted conformational transitions identifying the overall structural, dynamical, and topo...
متن کاملConformational Transitions in Adenylate Kinase
Large conformational changes in the LID and NMP domains of adenylate kinase (AKE) are known to be key to ligand binding and catalysis, yet the order of binding events anddomainmotion is not well understood. Combining the multiple available structures for AKEwith the energy landscape theory for protein folding, a theoretical model was developed for allostery, order of binding events, and efficie...
