A λ-dynamics investigation of insulin <i>Wakayama</i> and other A3 variant binding affinities to the insulin receptor
2024-03-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Insulin Wakayama is a clinical insulin variant where a conserved valine at the third residue on insulin’s A chain (Val A3 ) is replaced with a leucine (Leu A3 ), impairing insulin receptor (IR) binding by 140-500 fold. This severe impact on binding from such a subtle modification has posed an intriguing problem for decades. Although experimental investigations of natural and unnatural A3 muta...
