Helix-capping interaction in lambda Cro protein: a free energy simulation analysis.

Proteins - 1 Aug 1994

Tidor B

Abstract excerpt

The stability mutant Tyr-26-->Asp was studied in the Cro protein from bacteriophage lambda using free energy molecular dynamics simulations. The mutant was calculated to be more stable than the wild type by 3.0 +/- 1.7 kcal/mol/monomer, in reasonable agreement with experiment (1.4 kcal/mol/monomer). Moreover, the aspartic acid in the mutant was found to form a capping interaction with the amino terminus of the...
