项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our overall goal is to develop the computational infrastructure to enable pH to be treated the same level as temperature and pressure in molecular dynamics simulation studies of biological molecules. These tools and methods need to be robust and straightforward to employ. Our work to date in this area has had a significant impact on the field; others have implemented similar methods, and key applications demonstrate the utility of direct incorporation of pH effects into molecular simulations. Our specific aims are directed toward the establishment of a robust methodology for explicit solvent constant pH simulations and are driven by applications to nucleic acids and to a specific protein system where we will explore pH sensing elements in the chaperon activity of a conditionally disordered protein. Aim 1 is to develop novel and robust explicit solvent CpHMD methods for nucleic acids. Nucleic acids present special challenges to implicit solvent models because of strong electrostatic fields from the nucleic acid polyanion and the significant influences of their
ion atmosphere. Explicit solvent, with explicit ions, provides an alternative to the implicit solvet models. New developments in CpHMD will extend the approach to use an explicit solvent representation and will improve the precision, accuracy and robustness of the methodology. Our developments will be benchmarked against RNA and DNA measured pKa values for key bases, predominately the bases A and C, and through explicit collaborations with experimental colleagues. Aim 2 will apply CpHMD to explore the role of pH in mediating DNA/RNA conformation and base-base interactions. We will examine a number of specific cases, pH-mediated conformational switching in the SARS-CoV coronavirus, in the U6 intra-molecular stem loop of the splicosome, and the role of pH in the catalytic mechanism of the hairpin ribozyme. These applications address fundamental questions regarding the role of pH-driven protonation equilibrium in structure, dynamics and function in nucleic acids. Collaborations with the Al-Hashimi and Walter groups at Michigan and with Victoria D'Souza from Harvard provide both experimental benchmarks for our calculations and enable additional experiment and analysis to be informed from the calculations. Aim 3 aims to apply CpHMD to delineate and redesign the pH sensing mechanism in the Bacterial pH stress response protein chaperon HdeA. With the Bardwell group, we have redesigned the pH response elements in HdeA to produce a constitutively active and intrinsically disordered protein at pH 7. This provides a basis
for exploration of the interactions within the largely disordered, but chaperon active, protein and
the interactions it makes with its substrates. Collaboration with the Bardwell and Al-Hashimi groups will combine, coarse-grained simulations with CpHMD and NMR to explore the nature of the active disordered ensemble and how its members interact with substrate molecules.
描述(由申请人提供):我们的总体目标是开发计算基础设施,使生物分子的分子动力学模拟研究中的pH与温度和压力得到同等程度的处理。这些工具和方法需要健壮且易于使用。到目前为止,我们在这一领域的工作已经对该领域产生了重大影响;其他人也实施了类似的方法,关键应用表明了将pH效应直接纳入分子模拟的效用。我们的具体目标是建立一种稳健的方法,用于显式溶剂恒定pH模拟,并受到核酸和特定蛋白质系统的应用的推动,在该系统中,我们将探索条件性无序蛋白质伴侣活性中的pH敏感元件。第一个目标是发展新的和稳健的显式溶剂CpHMD方法来检测核酸。由于核酸多阴离子的强大静电场及其对隐含溶剂模型的显著影响,核酸对隐式溶剂模型提出了特殊的挑战
离子大气。具有显式离子的显式溶剂提供了隐式溶剂组模型的另一种选择。CpHMD的新发展将扩展该方法,使用显式溶剂表示法,并将提高方法的精密度、准确度和稳健性。我们的开发将以RNA和DNA测量的关键碱基的pKa值为基准,主要是碱基A和C,并通过与实验同事的明确合作。目的2应用CpHMD探讨pH在DNA/RNA构象和碱基相互作用中的作用。我们将研究一些特定的案例,在SARS-CoV冠状病毒中,在剪接体的U6分子内干环中,pH介导的构象转换,以及pH在发夹核酶的催化机制中的作用。这些应用解决了有关pH驱动的质子化平衡在核酸的结构、动力学和功能中的作用的基本问题。与密歇根的Al-Hashimi和Walter小组以及哈佛大学的Victoria D‘Souza的合作为我们的计算提供了实验基准,并使更多的实验和分析能够从计算中获得信息。目的应用CpHMD描述和重新设计细菌pH应激反应蛋白伴侣HdeA的pH敏感机制。与Bardwell团队一起,我们重新设计了HdeA中的pH反应元件,以产生一种在pH为7时具有构成活性和内在无序的蛋白质。这为我们提供了一个基础
为了探索在很大程度上无序但伴侣活性的蛋白质和
它与底物之间的相互作用。与Bardwell和Al-Hashimi小组的合作将结合CpHMD和核磁共振的粗粒度模拟,以探索活性无序系综的性质及其成员如何与底物分子相互作用。
