A reduced model of short range interactions in polypeptide chains
A simple model of short range interactions is proposed for a reduced lattice representation of polypeptide conformation. The potential is derived on the basis of statistical regularities seen in the known crystal structures of globular proteins. This potential accounts for the generic stiffness of polypeptides, the correlation between peptide bond plates, and the sequence dependent correlations...
متن کاملMolecular Insight into the Mutual Interactions of Two Transmembrane Domains of Human Glycine Receptor (TM23-GlyR), with the Lipid Bilayers
Appearing as a computational microscope, MD simulation can ‘zoom in’ to atomic resolution to assess detailed interactions of a membrane protein with its surrounding lipids, which play important roles in the stability and function of such proteins. This study has employed the molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, to determine the effect of added DMPC or DMTAP molecules on the structure of D...
متن کاملCooperative and Diminutive Interplay between Halogen, Hydride and Cation-σ Interactions
In the present study, the cooperative and diminutive interplay between halogen, hydride, and cation-σ interactions are studied in HMgH···Li+(Na+)···NCCl, Li+(Na+)···HMgH···ClCN and HMgH···ClCN···Li+(Na+) complexes by means of ab initio calculations. To better understand the cooperative or diminutive effects in the ternar...
متن کاملPolypeptide chain collapse and protein folding.
Polypeptide chain collapse is an integral component of a protein folding reaction. In this review, experimental characterization of the interplay of polypeptide chain collapse, secondary structure formation, consolidation of the hydrophobic core and the development of tertiary interactions, is scrutinized. In particular, the polypeptide chain collapse reaction is examined in the context of the ...
متن کاملMutual interplay between interactions of pi electrons with simultaneous σ-hole interactions: A computational Study
In this study, the role of interaction of pi electrons on the strength of simultaneous σ-hole interactions (pnicogen, chalcogen and halogen bonds) is investigated using the quantum chemical calculations. X-ben||TAZ∙∙∙Y1,Y2,Y3 complexes (X = CN, F, Cl, Br, CH3 , OH and NH2, TAZ= s-triazine and Y1,Y2 and Y3 denotes PH2F, HSF, and ClF molecules) is introduced as a model. The results show that inte...
