摘要: In this work, we report molecular dynamics simulations on a fragment of the human prion protein spanning residues 31-120, with copper(II) bound to repeat region in several ways corresponding known intra- and inter-repeat coordination modes, or metal site located at His111. The results study point different structuring tendency depending copper binding mode, highest degree case intrarepeat Cu(II) high concentration.
