Folding of Distinct Sequences into Similar Functional Topologies Hossein Mohammadiarani and Harish Vashisth (Advisor) Department of Chemical Engineering, University of New Hampshire, Durham, NH Abstract Molecular dynamics is a simulation technique to investigate the molecular and atomic interactions by numerical solution of classical equation of motion of all particles. In this work, we study folding of insulin B-chain and its mimetic peptide (RP9- S371) to compare their folding mechanisms. Folding structure of mimetic peptide is yet elusive although it is known that it causes insulin receptor activation. Sequence Alignment Sequence alignment of human insulin B-chain with the insulin mimetic peptides. Residues which are conserved in the alignment between mimetic peptide and the B- chain of human insulin are colored. Mimetic peptide (S371)Insulin B-chain GLY1 SER2 LEU3HSE ASP4LEU GLU5VAL SER6GLU PHE7ALA TYR8LEU ASP9TYR TRP10LEU PHE11VAL GLU12CYS ARG13GLY GLN14GLU LEU15ARG GLY16GLY LYS17PHE LYS18PHE Methods and Software Folding Thermodynamics (Potentials Mean Force) Metadynamics Parameters NAMD (NAnoscale Molecular Dynamics program) is a parallel molecular dynamics code designed for high performance simulation of large systems of particles. VMD (Visual Molecular Dynamics program) is a molecular visualization software for displaying, animation and analyzing the result of MD simulation. Metadynamics is an algorithm for mapping free energy landscape in molecular computations. NAMD is equipped with this algorithm.
