Abstract excerpt
Anti-terminator protein GlpP regulates gene expression of glycerol uptake operon at post-transcriptional level in a number of bacteria. By now, the molecular dynamics details of ligand and RNA binding by GlpP are still obscure. In this study, we employed the molecular dynamic (MD) simulation and constructed a functional verification platform of GlpP to resolve these puzzles. By combining molecular docking, MD...
