Association Free Energy of Dipalmitoylphosphatidylserines in a Mixed Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine Membrane
Biophysical Journal ; ABSTRACT Blood coagulation is strongly dependent on the binding of vitamin K-dependent proteins to cell membranes containing phosphatidylserine (PS) via γ-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) domains. The process depends on calcium, which can induce nonideal behavior in membranes through domain
Revisiting Free Energy Calculations: A Theoretical Connection to MM/PBSA and Direct Calculation of the Association Free Energy
Biophysical Journal ; ABSTRACT The prediction of absolute ligand-receptor binding affinities is essential in a wide range of biophysical queries, from the study of protein-protein interactions to structure-based drug design.

Free energy calculation and molecules dynamics simulations of wild-type and variants of the DNA-EcoRI complex
Biophysical Journal ; ABSTRACT Molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculations of the wild-type EcoRI-DNA complex and several variants have been performed in aqueous solvent. In general, he theoretical estimations of the free energy differences (AAA) qualitatively agree well with the corresponding
Developments in Determining the Anisotropy of Solid-Liquid Interfacial Free Energy
JOM ; Interfacial free energy and its anisotropy are key to understanding both crystal nucleation and growth behavior. New methods for accurately determining these properties have been developed in the last few years, both theoretically and experimentally. However, there are many questions to be
Ligand binding by antibody IgE Lb4: Assessment of binding site preferences using microcalorimetry, docking, and free energy simulations
Biophysical Journal ; ABSTRACT Antibody IgE Lb4 interacts favorably with a large number of different compounds. To improve the current understanding of the structural basis of this vast cross-reactivity, the binding of three dinitrophenyl (DNP) amino acids (DNP-alanine, DNP-glycine, and DNP-serine) is investigated in
Free energy decomposition of protein-protein interactions
Biophysical Journal ; ABSTRACT A free energy decomposition scheme has been developed and tested on antibody-antigen and protease-- inhibitor binding for which accurate experimental structures were available for both free and bound proteins. Using the x-ray coordinates of the free and bound proteins, the absolute binding
Absolute Binding Free Energy Calculations Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations with Restraining Potentials
Biophysical Journal ; ABSTRACT The absolute (standard) binding free energy of eight FK506-related ligands to FKBP12 is calculated using free energy perturbation molecular dynamics (FEP/MD) simulations with explicit solvent. A number of features are implemented to improve the accuracy and enhance the convergence of the
