Mechanism of Phosphate Release from Actin Filaments

Y. Wang, J. Wu, V. Zsolnay, T. D. Pollard, G. A. Voth

The paper uses molecular dynamics simulations to study phosphate release from actin filaments, identifying Mg2+ dissociation as the rate-limiting step and revealing the role of R177 in gate opening and occlusion.

Cracked actin filaments as mechanosensitive receptors

V. Zsolnay, M. L. Gardel, D. R. Kovar, G. A. Voth

This paper uses molecular dynamics simulations to show that mechanical strain on actin filaments creates a metastable cracked conformation, which serves as a binding site for LIM domain proteins.
