Force spectroscopy of barnase-barstar single molecule interaction.
Results of the single molecule force spectroscopy study of specific interactions between ribonuclease barnase and its inhibitor barstar are presented. Experimental data obtained for the force loading rate ranging 2-70 nN/s are well approximated by a single straight line, from which the dissociation barrier of the width of 0.12 nm and height of 0.75-0.85 × 10(-19)J can be inferred. The measured ...
متن کاملInteraction energy decomposition in protein-protein association: a quantum mechanical study of barnase-barstar complex.
Protein-protein interactions are very important in the function of a cell. Computational studies of these interactions have been of interest, but often they have utilized classical modelling techniques. In recent years, quantum mechanical (QM) treatment of entire proteins has emerged as a powerful approach to study biomolecular systems. Herein, we apply a semi-empirical divide and conquer (DC) ...
متن کاملProtein-protein interaction: a genetic selection for compensating mutations at the barnase-barstar interface.
Barnase and barstar are trivial names of the extracellular RNase and its intracellular inhibitor produced by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Inhibition involves the formation of a very tight one-to-one complex of the two proteins. With the crystallographic solution of the structure of the barnase-barstar complex and the development of methods for measuring the free energy of binding, the pair can b...
متن کاملSimulation of the diffusional association of barnase and barstar.
The rate of protein association places an upper limit on the response time due to protein interactions, which, under certain circumstances, can be diffusion-controlled. Simulations of model proteins show that diffusion-limited association rates are approximately 10(6)-10(7) M-1 s-1 in the absence of long-range forces (Northrup, S. H., and H. P. Erickson. 1992. Kinetics of protein-protein associ...
متن کاملStaphylococcal Virolysin, a Phage-induced Lysin
Virolysin is a lysin which appears in Staphylococcus aureus K(1) cells infected with phage P(14); together with phage, virolysin is released from phage-infected cells at the time of lysis. Autolysin is a lysin formed by uninfected cells of the K(1) strain; autolysin is released from uninfected cells by autolysis. They show the following similarities: Both agents act within the genus Micrococcus...
