Mechanical force generation by G proteins.
GTP-hydrolyzing G proteins are molecular switches that play a critical role in cell signaling processes. Here we use molecular dynamics simulations to show that Ras, a monomeric G protein, can generate mechanical force upon hydrolysis. The generated force levels are comparable to those produced by ATP-hydrolyzing motor proteins, consistent with the structural similarities of the catalytic regio...
متن کاملMasked cyanoacrylates unveiled by mechanical force.
Mechanical damage of polymers is often a destructive and irreversible process. However, desirable outcomes may be achieved by controlling the location of chain cleavage events through careful design and incorporation of mechanically active chemical moieties known as mechanophores. It is possible that mechanophores can be used to generate reactive intermediates that can autopolymerize or cross-l...
متن کاملProbing complex RNA structures by mechanical force.
RNA secondary structures of increasing complexity are probed combining single molecule stretching experiments and stochastic unfolding/refolding simulations. We find that force-induced unfolding pathways cannot usually be interpreted by solely invoking successive openings of native helices. Indeed, typical force-extension responses of complex RNA molecules are largely shaped by stretching-induc...
متن کاملWater properties from first principles: simulations by a general-purpose quantum mechanical polarizable force field.
We have recently introduced a quantum mechanical polarizable force field (QMPFF) fitted solely to high-level quantum mechanical data for simulations of biomolecular systems. Here, we present an improved form of the force field, QMPFF2, and apply it to simulations of liquid water. The results of the simulations show excellent agreement with a variety of experimental thermodynamic and structural ...
متن کاملNotes on Some Remedies. XXXVII. Penicillin
easily given intramuscularly without discomfort. Doses less than 20,000 units should not be used. The standard dose of procaine penicillin is 300,000 units and for oral use the dose should be at least five times the intramuscular dose. The dose for infants and young children is, generally speaking, 4,000 units per pound of expected body weight per 24 hours. Chronic infections are more resistant...
