Abstract excerpt
We investigate the coupling between the proton transfer (PT) energetics and the protein-solvent dynamics using the intra-molecular PT in wild type (wt) human carbonic anhydrase II and its ten-fold faster mutant Y7F/N67Q as a test case. We calculate the energy variation upon PT, and from that we also calculate the PT reaction free energy, making use of a hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular dynamics approach. In...
