Analysis of mutations of defensin protein using accelerated molecular dynamics simulations.

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...
