Abstract excerpt
The Omega-loop of TEM beta-lactamase is involved in substrate recognition and catalysis. Its dynamical properties and interaction with water molecules were investigated by performing multiple molecular dynamics simulations of up to 50 ns. Protein flexibility was assessed by calculating the root mean-square fluctuations and the generalized order parameter, S(2). The residues in secondary structure elements are...
