Abstract excerpt
In the present study, the impacts of G198N and W128F mutations on the recognition between Aurora A and targeting protein of Xenopus kinesin-like protein 2 (TPX2) were investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, free energy calculations, and free energy decomposition analysis. The predicted binding free energy of the wild-type complex is more favorable than those of three mutants, indicating that both...
