Abstract: | The QM/MM MD and free energy simulations show that serine-carboxyl peptidases (sedolisins) may stabilize the tetrahedral intermediates and tetrahedral adducts primarily through a general acid-base mechanism involving Asp (Asp164 for kumamolisin-As) rather than the oxyanion-hole interactions as in the cases of serine proteases. |
