1. Enzyme Cold Adaptation through Evolution of Protein Flexibility
Abstract : What lives, evolves. Macromolecular catalysis is a process, central to both evolutionary and metabolic aspect of life, as it provides a systematic bias favouring certain chemical processes. READ MORE

2. Molecular Simulation of Enzyme Catalysis and Inhibition
Abstract : The reaction mechanisms for the hemoglobin degrading enzymes in the Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasite, plasmepsin II (Plm II) and histo-aspartic protease (HAP), have been analyzed by molecular simulations. The reaction free energy profiles, calculated by the empirical valence bond (EVB) method in combination with molecular dynamics (MD) and free energy perturbation (FEP) simulations are in good agreement with experimental data.

3. Computational Studies of the Temperature Dependence of Enzyme Catalysis
Abstract : Enzymes are known to adapt to low temperatures by lowering the enthalpy of activation of the key reaction steps. A lesser known property of some psychrophilic (cold-active) enzymes is an anomalous temperature optimum. READ MORE
