| Conformational Studies of the Emp-AKH Peptide Using Molecular and Langevin Dynamics Methods  | | | Abstract
| The secondary structure of the member of the A K H/RPCH family has been studied by Molecular Dynamics and Langevin Dynamics methods. Molecular dynamics simulation were performed in vacuum, m odel aqueous solution and simulated membrane. Langevin dynamics simulation was performed using the friction factor y equal to 2 ps_1. Molecular dynamics as well as Langevin Dynam ics simulation were conducted at 300 K. All minimum energy con-formers have similar backbone structure characterised by the turn consisted out of 3 amino acids, Thr, Pro and A sn7. Structures obtained from Molecular Dynamics simulation are char acterised by the lack o f hydrogen bonds whereas the structure obtained form Langevin D y namics simulation is stabilised by the web of hydrogen bonds. | | |
