Molecular interaction mechanism of a 14-3-3 protein with a phosphorylated peptide elucidated by enhanced conformational sampling

J. Higo, T. Kawabata, A. Kusaka, K. Kasahara, N. Kamiya, I. Fukuda, K. Mori, Y. Hata, Y. Fukunishi, H. Nakamura

This paper uses enhanced conformational sampling to study the binding mechanism of a phosphorylated peptide to a 14-3-3 protein, identifying stable clusters and a phosphorylation-dependent binding process.

Hydrogen Bond Donors and Acceptors are Generally Depolarized in α-Helices as Revealed by a Molecular Tailoring Approach

H. X. Kondo, A. Kusaka, C. K. Kitakawa, J. Onari, S. Yamanaka, H. Nakamura, Y. Takano

The paper examines H-bond interaction energies in α-helices using DFT calculations and a molecular tailoring approach, finding weaker energies due to depolarization effects.
