    Multi-particle Brownian Dynamics software ProKSim for protein-protein interactions modeling
    Computer Research and Modeling, 2013, v. 5, no. 1, pp. 47-64

    Protein-protein interactions are of central importance for virtually every process in living matter. Modeling the dynamics of protein association is crucial for understanding their functionality. This paper proposes novel simulation software ProKSim (Protein Kinetics Simulator) for modeling of protein interactions by means of the multi-particle Brownian Dynamics. Effect of long-range electrostatic interactions on the process of transient encounter complex formation is numerically estimated. Investigation of transient encounter complex formation was performed for three pairs of proteins: ferredoxin and ferredoxin:NADP+-redustase, plastocyanin and cytochrome f, barnase and barstar.

    Molecular dynamics study of complexes of a DNA aptamer with AMP and GMP
    Computer Research and Modeling, 2021, v. 13, no. 6, pp. 1191-1203

    This study is devoted to a comparative study of the conformational stability of the DNA aptamer to adenosine derivatives in a free state and in a complex with AMP and HMP molecules by use of molecular dynamics. It was shown that, in the free state, the structure of the inner loop of the DNA aptamer hairpin, due to the special packing of guanines, closes the cavity of the binding site from external ligands, and the condition for the specific selection of adenosine derivatives in comparison with guanine arises. New stabilization factors of the AMP and aptamer complex have been revealed — hydrogen bonds between the O3’ of the ribose atom of the ligands with the oxygen of the nearest phosphate group. It was also shown that guanines, which form hydrogen bonds with AMP within the binding site, are additionally stabilized by hydrogen bonds with phosphate groups opposing along the chain. The proposed scheme is in qualitative agreement with the experimental data, according to which the aptamer in solution acquires a hairpin conformation with the formation of a binding site, while the formed site exhibits high specificity when interacting only with adenosine derivatives.
