Investigating Structure-Dynamics-Function Differences Among Various Species of Proyl-tRNA Synthetase Using a Hybrid QM/MM Computational Technique

Weinzetl, Murphi; Fossum, Carl; Narkiewicz-Jodko, Alexander; Hati, Sanchita; Bhattacharyay, Sudeep (2019-05)

All living organisms contain amino-acyl tRNA synthetases (AARSs) ‒ a family of enzymes critical for protein synthesis. They are responsible for the covalent ligation of proline to its specific tRNA molecule, called tRNAPro, ...
Molecular Dynamics Simulation Studies to Probe the Impact of Oxidative Stress on the Binding of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein to Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2

Fossum, Carl; Lowater, Harrison; Narkiewicz-Jodko, Alexander; Laatsch, Bethany; Lonzarich, Leo; Hati, Sanchita; Bhattacharyay, Sudeep (2021-04)

The receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein as well as the human cell surface receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme II (ACE2) contain several cysteine residues. These cysteine residues exist either in ...
