P 97: Neurodegeneration Induced by Tau protein
Tau is one of several types of microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs), responsible for the assembly and stability of microtubule networks that is present only in neurons and predominantly localized in axons which its functions are tightly regulated by phosphorylation. Via as yet unknown mechanisms, tau becomes hyperphosphorylated and accompanies with neuronal degeneration, loss of synapses...
متن کاملInvestigation of Melting by Molecular Dynamics Simulation
The melting of a 64 ion microcrystal of KCI was studied by means of a molecular dynamics computer simulation. We used a central pair interaction with an inverse power law repulsion. The thermodynamics, kinetic and structural properties such as melting temperature, latent heat, mean square displacement, diffusion constant, radial distribution function and bond angle distribution are calculated. ...
متن کاملMolecular Effects of Concentrated Solutes on Protein Hydration, Dynamics, and Electrostatics.
Most studies of protein structure and function are performed in dilute conditions, but proteins typically experience high solute concentrations in their physiological scenarios and biotechnological applications. High solute concentrations have well-known effects on coarse protein traits like stability, diffusion, and shape, but likely also perturb other traits through finer effects pertinent at...
متن کاملInter-DNA electrostatics from explicit solvent molecular dynamics simulations.
Electrostatic interactions drive a compaction of many biomolecules, such as RNA and DNA.1,2 For example, DNA is compacted a million-fold into a highly organized structure in eukaryotic cells, called chromatin.2-5 Understanding the mechanism of chromatin folding is of great biological importance, since it mediates the extent of accessibility of specific DNA sequences, which in turn, controls imp...
