Proton transport in carbonic anhydrase: Insights from molecular simulation Maupin CM; Voth GABiochim Biophys Acta 2010[Feb]; 1804 (2): 332-41This article reviews the insights gained from molecular simulations of human carbonic anhydrase II (HCA II) utilizing non-reactive and reactive force fields. The simulations with a reactive force field explore protein transfer and transport via Grotthuss shuttling, while the non-reactive simulations probe the larger conformational dynamics that underpin the various contributions to the rate-limiting proton transfer event. Specific attention is given to the orientational stability of the His64 group and the characteristics of the active site water cluster, in an effort to determine both of their impact on the maximal catalytic rate. The explicit proton transfer and transport events are described by the multistate empirical valence bond (MS-EVB) method, as are alternative pathways for the excess proton charge defect to enter/leave the active site. The simulation results are interpreted in light of experimental results on the wild-type enzyme and various site-specific mutations of HCA II in order to better elucidate the key factors that contribute to its exceptional efficiency.|*Computer Simulation[MESH]|*Protons[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Carbonic Anhydrases/*chemistry/*metabolism[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Ion Transport[MESH] |
