The Laboratory of Computational Chemistry and Biochemistry is active in the development and application of first-principles based simulations of complex chemical and biochemical phenomena. Here, we review some of our recent efforts in extending these metho ...

Naturally occurring intrastrand oxidative crosslink lesions have proven to be a potent source of endogenous DNA damage. Among the variety of lesions that can be formed and have been identified, G[8-5]C damage (in which the C8 atom of a guanine is covalentl ...

The doppel (Dpl) and prion (PrP) proteins share a very similar fold (three helices and two short beta-strands), while they differ significantly in sequence (only 25% homologous) and in disease-related beta-rich conformations that occur for PrP only. In a p ...

DNA damages induced by oxidative intrastrand cross-links have been the subject of intense research during the past decade. Yet, the currently available experimental protocols used to isolate such lesions only allow to get structural information about linke ...

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we show that the prion protein (PrP) exhibits a dual behavior, with two possible transition routes, upon protonation of H187 around pH 4.5, which mimics specific conditions encountered in endosomes. Our results suggest ...

Recently, Hasserodt et al. proposed new HIV-1 drug candidates based on a weak N center dot center dot center dot CO interaction, designed to be a close transition state analog (Gautier et al. Bioorg. Med. Chem. 2006, 14, 3835-3847; Waibel et al. J. Bioorg. ...

We perform a replica exchange molecular dynamics simulation corresponding to a 2.8 mu s total time for the extensive enhanced sampling of the conformational space of the C-terminal part (residues 124-226) of the mouse prion protein (PrP); 1.3% of the confo ...
