Comparative Analysis of Dynamic Features of Endolysins T5 and PlyG In Silico
摘要
Bacteriophage endolysins are part of a complex of lytic enzymes responsible for the destruction of peptidoglycan in the bacterial cell wall. The dynamic features of single-domain endolysin of bacteriophage T5 and multi-domain endolysin PlyG of gamma phage have been studied by methods of molecular dynamics and normal mode analysis. The nature of activation of bacteriophage T5 endolysins by calcium and a discovered fundamental difference in the dynamic features of single-domain and multi-domain endolysins are explained.
