Abstract excerpt
The free energy profiles for the chemical reaction of the guanosine triphosphate hydrolysis GTP + H2O → GDP + Pi by Ras-GAP for the wild-type and G13V mutated Ras were computed by using molecular dynamics protocols with the QM(ab initio)/MM potentials. The results are consistent with the recent measurements of reaction kinetics in Ras-GAP showing about two-order reduction of the rate constant upon G13V mutation...
