Core packing of well-defined x-ray and NMR structures is the same

Alex T. Grigas, Zhuoyi Liu, Lynne Regan +1

Numerous studies have investigated the differences and similarities between protein structures determined by solution NMR spectroscopy and those determined by x-ray crystallography…

Uncovering diffusive states of the yeast proton pump, Pma1, and how labeling method can change diffusive behavior

Mary Lou P. Bailey, Susan E. Pratt, Yongdeng Zhang +4

We present and analyze video-microscopy-based single-particle-tracking measurements of the budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) membrane protein, Pma1, fluorescently-labeled ei…

Current MD forcefields fail to capture key features of protein structure and fluctuations: A case study of cyclophilin A and T4 lysozyme

Zhe Mei, Alex T. Grigas, John D. Treado +6

Globular proteins undergo thermal fluctuations in solution, while maintaining an overall well-defined folded structure. In particular, studies have shown that the core structure of…

Using physical features of protein core packing to distinguish real proteins from decoys

Alex T. Grigas, Zhe Mei, John D. Treado +3

The ability to consistently distinguish real protein structures from computationally generated model decoys is not yet a solved problem. One route to distinguish real protein struc…

Analyses of protein cores reveal fundamental differences between solution and crystal structures

Zhe Mei, John D. Treado, Alex T. Grigas +3

There have been several studies suggesting that protein structures solved by NMR spectroscopy and x-ray crystallography show significant differences. To understand the origin of th…

Void distributions reveal structural link between jammed packings and protein cores

John D. Treado, Zhe Mei, Lynne Regan +1

Dense packing of hydrophobic residues in the cores of globular proteins determines their stability. Recently, we have shown that protein cores possess packing fraction $ϕ\approx 0.…
