Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Protein functions are fulfilled by correlation among various phenomena on different spatial and temporal scales ranging from enzymatic reactions to global conformational changes of proteins. By using a novel molecular simulation approach developed recently by us, QM/MM RWFE-SCF, which is capable of describing such correlations of various phenomena on different scale, we succeeded in obtaining novel molecular mechanistic insights into photo-activation processes of LOV photo-receptor and channelrhodopsin, and enzymatic catalysis of HIV protease.
