Simulation of biochemical reaction and biophysical process

The density functional theory (DFT) and molecular mechanics (MM) are used to study biochemical reactions and biophysical processes. The mechanism of DNA backbone hydrolysis by specific enzyme is studied. It is found that the Mg2 + cation can polarize the breaking P-O bond while a histidine acts as b...
