A glimpse from my current work

in #steemstem5 years ago (edited)

Below is a video of two 400ns long all-atom classical molecular dynamics trajectories of Rap:Raf complex.

The "ice blue" and "orange" tubes are Rap:Raf complex with phosphorylated Serine at 39th site in Rap chain. The red/blue colored region of the tube is the Switch-I. For a context see this article:

Did you make this from your own experimental data? If so what program? It’s been a while since I’ve dealt with protein structure, but the modeling programs have always been fascinating.

The initial structure is downloaded from protein data bank(id: 1C1Y). We used this structure to perform molecular dynamics.
