Abstract excerpt
The active sites of 3 types of aspartic proteases are modeled, based on crystallographic coordinates of endothiapepsin and of a model of HIV-1 protease. The enthalpies of deprotonation from neutral to mono-anion and to dianion are calculated with semiempirical minimal neglect of differential overlap, hydrogen bonding corrected (MNDO/H). This quantum mechanical study of models for the active sites of pepsins,...
