Atomic-resolution conformational analysis of the GM3 ganglioside in a lipid bilayer and its implications for ganglioside-protein recognition at membrane surfaces
2008
Glycobiology
Here, we employ all-atom explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, using the GLYCAM06 force field, to model the conformation and dynamics of ganglioside G M3 (α-Neu5Ac-(2-3)-β-Gal-(1-4)-β-Glc-ceramide ...
The accuracy of data from the MD simulations was determined by comparison to NMR and crystallographic data for the head group in solution and for G M3 in membrane-mimicking environments. ...
