Analysis of mutations of defensin protein using accelerated molecular dynamics simulations.
Plant defensins possess diverse biological functions that include antifungal and antibacterial activities and α-amylase and trypsin inhibitory properties. Two mutations, G9R and V39R, were confirmed to increase the antifungal activity of Raphanus sativus antifungal protein 2 (RsAFP2). Accelerated Mo...
