Structural
and flexibility determinants of the NAF-1 protein in
the His114:Nε protonated state. (A) Superposition of the main
representative MD structure (cyan), as obtained by clusterization
(see Section 2.3),
with the corresponding X-ray structure (green, pdbID:4OO7). (B) Calculated
N, H, Cα, and Cβ chemical shifts for monomers A (violet)
and B (green) and corresponding experimental values. The differences
were lower than the uncertainties associated with the root mean square
error (error bars) of the program used for the chemical shift prediction
(SHIFTX249). (C) Protein angular dispersion
(PAD) values47 overlaid on the experimental
Debye–Waller factors.31 Monomers
A and B are colored in red and in blue, respectively. Similar results
were obtained for the other systems simulated here (see Section S2.2 and Figure S5).
