Structural entanglements in protein complexes
Yani Zhao, Mateusz Chwastyk, Marek Cieplak
We consider multi-chain protein native structures and propose a criterion that determines whether two chains in the system are entangled or not. The criterion is based on the behav…

Structural changes in barley protein LTP1 isoforms at air-water interfaces
Yani Zhao, Marek Cieplak
We use a coarse-grained model to study the conformational changes in two barley proteins, LTP1 and its ligand adduct isoform LTP1b, that result from their adsorption to the air-wat…

Topological transformations in proteins: effects of heating and proximity of an interface
Yani Zhao, Mateusz Chwastyk, Marek Cieplak
Using a structure-based coarse-grained model of proteins, we study the mechanism of unfolding of knotted proteins through heating. We find that the dominant mechanisms of unfolding…
