MD simulations and experiments of plasma proteins adsorption to the biodegradable magnesium alloys to facilitate cell response
Xian Wei, Jiajia Menga, Sujie Ma +5
Once the magnesium alloy was implanted in the body, it was immediately covered with plasma proteins. The coated alloy surface promoted the adsorption and growth of osteoblasts. Her…
On the role of thermal backbone fluctuations in myoglobin ligand gate dynamics
Andrey Krokhotin, Antti J. Niemi, Xubiao Peng
We construct an energy function that describes the crystallographic structure of spermwhale myoglobin backbone. As a model in our construction, we use the Protein Data Bank entry 1…
Soliton concepts and the protein structure
Andrei Krokhotin, Antti J. Niemi, Xubiao Peng
Structural classification shows that the number of different protein folds is surprisingly small. It also appears that proteins are built in a modular fashion, from a relatively sm…
