Computer Folding of RNA Tetraloops: Identification of Key Force Field Deficiencies
Petra Kührová, Robert B. Best, Sandro Bottaro +4
The computer-aided folding of biomolecules, particularly RNAs, is one of the most difficult challenges in computational structural biology. RNA tetraloops are fundamental RNA motif…
Diffusive dynamics of contact formation in disordered polypeptides
Gul Zerze, Jeetain Mittal, Robert B. Best
Experiments measuring contact formation between a probe and quencher in disordered chains provide information on the fundamental dynamical timescales relevant to protein folding, b…
Role of solvation in pressure-induced helix stabilization
Robert B. Best, Cayla Miller, Jeetain Mittal
In contrast to the well-known destabilization of globular proteins by high pressure, re- cent work has shown that pressure stabilizes the formation of isolated α-helices. However a…
Theory and simulation of macromolecular crowding effects on protein folding stability and kinetics
Jeetain Mittal, Robert B. Best
We investigate the effect of macromolecular crowding on protein folding, using purely repulsive crowding particles and a self-organizing polymer model of protein folding. We find t…
