The Evolution of Multiple Active Site Configurations in a Designed Enzyme

Abstract (Expand)

Developments in computational chemistry, bioinformatics, and laboratory evolution have facilitated the de novo design and catalytic optimization of enzymes. Besides creating useful catalysts, the … generation and iterative improvement of designed enzymes can provide valuable insight into the interplay between the many phenomena that have been suggested to contribute to catalysis. In this work, we follow changes in conformational sampling, electrostatic preorganization, and quantum tunneling along the evolutionary trajectory of a designed Kemp eliminase. We observe that in the Kemp Eliminase KE07, instability of the designed active site leads to the emergence of two additional active site configurations. Evolutionary conformational selection then gradually stabilizes the most efficient configuration, leading to an improved enzyme. This work exemplifies the link between conformational plasticity and evolvability and demonstrates that residues remote from the active sites of enzymes play crucial roles in controlling and shaping the active site for efficient catalysis.

Read between the Molecules: Computational Insights into Organic Semiconductors

Abstract (Expand)

The performance and key electronic properties of molecular organic semiconductors are dictated by the interplay between the chemistry of the molecular core and the intermolecular factors of which … manipulation has inspired both experimentalists and theorists. This Perspective presents major computational challenges and modern methodological strategies to advance the field. The discussion ranges from insights and design principles at the quantum chemical level, in-depth atomistic modeling based on multiscale protocols, morphological prediction and characterization as well as energy-property maps involving data-driven analysis. A personal overview of the past achievements and future direction is also provided.
