Michael Levitt (650) 723-6800 |
Description:
Consultation concerning research
that focuses on two complementary aspects of protein and nucleic
acid structure: simulation of molecular dynamics and prediction
of stable native structures. Calculations attempt to simulate atomic
motion in as accurate a manner as possible, explicitly including
solvent, counter-ions, full flexibility, and thermal motion. Prediction
of molecular structure attempts to build a three-dimensional model
of the macromolecule using available information. This work ranges
from the very difficult problem of protein folding from its amino
acid sequence to easier problems of side-chain positioning and homology
modeling. |
