Abstract

ORIG CZ

V originále

In this paper, we propose a new method which considers the movement of a protein molecule as a whole for the computation of so called dynamic channels in a molecular dynamics trajectory. The method is based on maximizing the information about the empty space over time and is built on basic computational geometry principles. The dynamic channels highlight pulsing and flexible parts of the molecule. It is believed that such parts allow a ligand to pass into or out from the active site. The method was tested on real protein data and the results indicate that it presents new information about the molecule.

In Czech

Prezentujeme novou metodu pro detekci tzv. dynamických tunelů v trajektorii molekulární dynamiky. Metoda využívá základních principů výpočetní geometrie a je založena na maximalizaci volného prostoru uvnitř molekuly. Dynamické tunely zvýrazňují pulsující a flexibilní části molekuly a umožňují ligandu vstoupit do aktivního místa molekuly. Metoda byla testována na skutečných datech a výsledky přináší dosud nepoznané informace o molekule.
