Molecular dynamics simulation and essential dynamics study of mutated plastocyanin: structural, dynamical and functional effects of a disulfide bridge insertion at the protein surface.

Abstract excerpt

A molecular dynamics simulation (1.1 ns) at 300 K, of fully hydrated Ile21Cys, Glu25Cys plastocyanin mutant has been performed to investigate the structural, dynamical and functional effects of a disulfide bridge insertion at the surface of the protein. A detailed analysis of the root mean square fluctuations, H-bonding pattern and dynamical cross-correlation map has been performed. An essential dynamics method...
