Biomolekulare Simulationen mit mehreren Auflösungsniveaus: ein Überblick über methodische Aspekte

TL;DR: Theoretische and computer-gestutzte Modellierungen, die der Erklarung experimenteller Beobachtungen im Hinblick auf ein bestimmtes chemisches Phanomen oder einen bestimmten chemischen Prozess dienen, erfordern eine Reihe von Annahmen as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the use of one-step perturbation to investigate the dependence of NOE-derived atom-atom distance bound violations of peptides upon a variation of force-field parameters.

TL;DR: One-step perturbation constitutes an efficient technique to predict many values of different quantities from a single conformational ensemble for a particular system, which makes it a powerful force-field development technique that easily reduces the number of required separate simulations by an order of magnitude.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure prediction of subtilisin BPN' mutants using molecular dynamics methods.

TL;DR: This paper compared the calculated structure of the mutants Met222Ala, Met222Phe and Met222Gln of subtilisin BPN' with the respective X-ray structures and found good agreement between predicted andX-ray structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring the effect of side-chain substitutions upon the secondary structure preferences of β-peptides.

TL;DR: Primary structure preferences of two sets of 16 β-peptides were investigated by means of one-step perturbation using molecular dynamics simulations and the results show that the substitution of a methyl group in the third or fourth residue stabilizes the left-handed 3(14)-helix over the right-handed 2.5(12-helix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of 63Ser phosphorylation and dephosphorylation on the structure of the stathmin helical nucleation sequence: a molecular dynamics study.

TL;DR: The hypothesis of salt bridge derangement suggested by experimental observations of the stathmin nucleation sequence is extended, providing new insights into regulation of intrinsically disordered protein systems mediated by phosphorylation.
