From chemistry-request@ccl.net Fri Jul 24 15:48:18 1992 Date: Fri, 24 Jul 1992 10:59 MST From: YAMAMURA@CGF.chem.Arizona.edu Subject: Summarization of Responses to Interaction Energy and Hydrophobicity To: chemistry@ccl.net Status: R Dear Fellow Netters, The following is a summary to the net of responses to the query below. Many thanks to all those who responded. We are very grateful for the generosity of those who supplied the valuable information summarized below. Susan Yamamura *************************************************************************** QUERY Does anyone know of computational models for calculating interaction energies between the planar surface of a solid of a known crystal structure and the surface of an adsorbed protein of known crystal structure? It is especially desirable for the model to include hydrophobic interactions. All information received will be summarized to the net. Any information about references, programs, etc would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Susan Yamamura yamamura@cgf.chem.arizona.edu RESPONSES ONE *************************************************************************** We use a program created by P. Claverie and J. Caillet in the seventies, this program does not fit exactly with your needs because the proteins are not parametrized but may be it could work with minors adaptations.

The central cell is built by symetry operations applied to one molecule or by differents species. The geometry of the molecule is introduce by : - cristallographic coordinates - internal coordinates system (rho theta phi). Several ways to modifie this geometry are available : - internal rotations ( e.g. rotation of an acetyl group ) - rotation and translation of the whole molecule : - rotation defined through Euler angles. - rotation defined through axes and angles. Warning : at this moment all molecules are considered fixed and their internal geometry do not change during the minimisation. the parametrization concern small organic molecules and is based on the William's parameters. A work is to be done to adjust them for proteins. ************************************************************************* RESPONSE 2 From: SMTP%"hogue@sdisu1.den.mmc.com" 20-JUL-1992 14:31 Date: Mon, 20 Jul 92 15:29:25 MDT From: hogue@sdisu1.den.mmc.com (Pat Hogue) Message-Id: <9207202129.AA01776@sdisu1> To: yamamura@cgf.chem.arizona.edu Subject: adsorption I am beginning to study adsorption of polymer chain onto inorganic substrates and would like to know if you come up with a program to do protein to solid adsorption. I'm using the semiempirical set of programs called GEOMOS (QCPE 584). I don't have any results yet. I would appreciate a personal note if you can.
