• openAccess   Electrostatic Contributions to Protein Stability and Folding Energy 

      Roca, Maite; Messer, Benjamin; Warshel, Arieh Federation of European Biochemical Societies (2007-05-15)
      The ability to predict the thermal stability of proteins based on their corresponding sequence is a problem of great fundamental and practical importance. Here we report an approach for calculating the electrostatic ...
    • openAccess   On the relationship between folding and chemical landscapes in enzyme catalysis 

      Roca, Maite; Messer, Benjamin; Hilvert, Donald; Warshel, Arieh National Academy of Sciences (2008-09-16)
      Elucidating the relationship between the free energy landscape of enzymes and their catalytic power has been one of the challenges of modern enzymology. The present work explores this issue by using a simplified folding ...
    • openAccess   On the relationship between thermal stability and catalytic power of enzymes 

      Roca, Maite; Liu, Hanbin; Messer, Benjamin; Warshel, Arieh ACS Publications (2007-12-25)
      The  possible  relationship  between  the  thermal  stability  and  the  catalytic  power  of  enzymes  is  of   great  current  interest.  In  particular,  it  has  been  suggested  that  thermophilic  or  hyperthermophilic ...
