Enhanced conformational sampling of carbohydrates by Hamiltonian replica-exchange simulation.
Knowledge of the structure and conformational flexibility of carbohydrates in an aqueous solvent is important to improving our understanding of how carbohydrates function in biological systems. In this study, we extend a variant of the Hamiltonian replica-exchange molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to improve the conformational sampling of saccharides in an explicit solvent. During the simulati...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics of apo-adenylate kinase: a distance replica exchange method for the free energy of conformational fluctuations.
A large domain motion in adenylate kinase from E. coli (AKE) is studied with molecular dynamics. AKE undergoes a large-scale rearrangement of its lid and AMP-binding domains when the open form closes over its substrates, AMP, and Mg2+-ATP, whereby the AMP-binding and lid domains come closer to the core. The third domain, the core, is relatively stable during this motion. A reaction coordinate t...
متن کاملConformational Transitions in Adenylate Kinase
Large conformational changes in the LID and NMP domains of adenylate kinase (AKE) are known to be key to ligand binding and catalysis, yet the order of binding events anddomainmotion is not well understood. Combining the multiple available structures for AKEwith the energy landscape theory for protein folding, a theoretical model was developed for allostery, order of binding events, and efficie...
متن کاملMicrocanonical replica exchange molecular dynamics simulation of proteins.
We present microcanonical replica exchange molecular dynamics simulations as an alternative to canonical ones. Its advantage is the easily tunable high acceptance rate for replica exchange. We present the theory, comment on its actual implementation, and demonstrate its application for a common test case, the trp-cage protein.
متن کاملConformational populations of ligand-sized molecules by replica exchange molecular dynamics and temperature reweighting
The use of the replica exchange (RE) molecular dynamics (MD) method for the efficient estimation of conformational populations of ligand-sized molecules in solution is investigated. We compare the computational efficiency of the traditional constant temperature MD technique with that of the parallel RE molecular dynamics method for a series of alkanes and rilpivirine (TMC278), an inhibitor agai...
