  2. 2. Aromatic Ring Flips and Local Volume Fluctuations in BPTI

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Simon Enbom; [2022]
    Keywords : Biophysical Chemistry; Molecular Dynamics; Protein Dynamics; Activation Volume; Aromatic Ring Flips; BPTI; Biology and Life Sciences; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Aromatic ring flips are a classic example of a dynamic process in proteins. Discovered decades ago, methodological limitations hindered progress at the time. Ring flips have gained new interest and experimentalists can measure the flip rate and thermodynamic quantities associated with it. READ MORE

  3. 3. Investigating the role of water in the protein dynamic transition

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Maddalena Bin; [2020]
    Keywords : Protein; water; protein dynamic transition; x-ray;

    Abstract : Proteins undergo a dynamic transition at approximately 220 K, also called protein ’glass’ transition, below which temperature proteins lose their conformational flexibility and become biologically inactive. The protein dynamic transition has been observed for several proteins utilizing different techniques, such as inelastic neutron scattering, infrared spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. READ MORE

    Abstract : Water is “the matrix of life” for its fascinating properties. The well-known simple water molecule consists of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms, covering most of planet earth’ssurface. It is the most studied element in science; however, its properties are still not fully understood. READ MORE
