Understanding of ATP-lid conformational dynamics in the N-terminal domain of Hsp90 and its mutants by use of a computational biochemistry approach.

Abstract excerpt

Chaperone Hsp90 regulates the activation and maturation of various protein, and is an attractive target for drug discovery. In catalytic cycle of Hsp90, ATP hydrolysis is a key event that drives structural changes, including the interchange of the dimeric Hsp90 structure between open and closed forms. For ATP hydrolysis, ATP-lid closure in the ATP-binding site from the up- to down-conformation is an indispensable...
