Abstract excerpt
QM/MD simulations are performed to study mutational effects on the glycosylation step of the oligosaccharide hydrolysis catalyzed by Trichoderma reesei cellobiohydrolase I. The potential of mean force along the reaction pathway is determined by the umbrella sampling method. A detailed mechanism is developed to illustrate the decrease in activity of the mutants. Our calculations demonstrate that (1) the E212Q...
