Essential sub-networks based on contact strength reveal folding kinetics
Taisong Zou, Canan Atilgan, Ali Rana Atilgan +1
It has been observed that the topology of the native state is an important determinant of protein folding kinetics and there is a significant correlation between folding rate and r…
Nanosecond motions in proteins impose bounds on the timescale distributions of local dynamics
Osman Burak Okan, Ali Rana Atilgan, Canan Atilgan
We elucidate the physics of the dynamical transition via 10-100ns molecular dynamics simulations at temperatures spanning 160-300K. By tracking the energy fluctuations, we show tha…
Screened non-bonded interactions in native proteins manipulate optimal paths for robust residue communication
Ali Rana Atilgan, Deniz Turgut, Canan Atilgan
A protein structure is represented as a network of residues whereby edges are determined by intra-molecular contacts. We introduce inhomogeneity into these networks by assigning ea…
