We developed and validated a novel force field in the context of AMBER parameterization for simulation zinc(II)-binding proteins. The proposed assumes nonbonded spherical interactions between central zinc(II) coordinating residues. A crucial innovative aspect our approach is to account polarization effects cation by redefining atomic charges residues an adjustment Lennard-Jones parameters Zn-interacting atoms reproduce mean distance distributions. optimal transferable parametrization was obtained performing accurate quantum mechanical calculations on training set high-quality protein structures, encompassing most common folds sites. addressed sites contain ion tetra-coordinated histidine cysteine represent about 70% all physiologically relevant Protein Data Bank. Molecular dynamics simulations with explicit solvent, carried out several proteins not included set, show that model preserves tetra-coordination metal site remarkable stability, yielding zinc(II)-X distances similar experimental data. Finally, tested evaluating affinities, using alchemical free energy perturbation approach. calculated dissociation constants correlate satisfactorily counterpart demonstrating validity transferability

Metal ions provide considerable functionality across biological systems, and their utilization within biomolecules has adapted through changes in the chemical environment to maintain activity they facilitate. While ancient earth's atmosphere was rich iron manganese low oxygen, periods of atmospheric oxygenation significantly altered availability certain metal ions, resulting ion replacement biomolecules. This adaptation mechanism given rise phenomenon cofactor interchangeability, whereby contemporary proteins nucleic acids interact with multiple interchangeably, different coordinated metals influencing activity, stability, toxic potential. The ability extant organisms adapt fluctuating remains relevant a number crucial biomolecules, including superoxide dismutases antioxidant defense systems ribonucleotide reductases. These well-studied enzymes illustrate potential for interchangeability adaptive utilization. More recently, ribosome also been demonstrated exhibit interchangeable interactions impacts on function, stress adaptation. Using these other examples, here we review significance from new angle that combines both biochemical evolutionary viewpoints. geochemical pressures properties underlie are discussed context impact modern disease states treatments. unique numerous facilitate extensive all areas cellular fundamental processes, such as respiration, metabolism, nitrogen fixation, photosynthesis, DNA replication, transcription, protein synthesis (1Bellenger J.P.

Nutrients are scarce and valuable resources, so plants developed sophisticated mechanisms to optimize nutrient use efficiency. A crucial part of this is monitoring external internal levels adjust processes such as uptake, redistribution, cellular compartmentation.
