Zusammenfassung: | <jats:title>Significance</jats:title> <jats:p>Most proteins associate with other proteins to function, forming complexes that are central to almost all physiological processes. Determining the structures of these complexes and understanding how they associate are problems of fundamental importance. Using long-timescale molecular dynamics simulations, some performed using a new enhanced sampling method, we observed spontaneous association and dissociation of five protein–protein systems to and from their experimentally determined native complexes. By analyzing the simulations of these five systems, which include members of diverse structural and functional classes, we are able to draw general mechanistic conclusions about protein association.</jats:p> |
