Abstract excerpt
Interprotein interactions between the partially unfolded states of γD-crystallin (γD-crys) protein are known to cause cataracts. Therefore, understanding the unfolding pathways of native γD-crys is extremely crucial to delineate their aggregation mechanism. In this study, we have performed extensive all-atom Molecular Dynamics simulations with explicit solvent to understand the role of the critical residues that...
