Methylated CpG Binding Protein 2 (MeCP2) is a nuclear protein named for its ability to selectively recognize methylated DNA. Much attention has been focused on understanding MeCP2 structure and function in the context of its role in Rett syndrome, a severe neurodevelopmental disorder that afflicts o
Molecular dynamics simulation was conducted to investigate the reason why the mutant G40R of hSRY protein has a low affinity for DNA. Compared with the previous dynamics results of the wild-type hSRY-HMG-DNA complex, the results of molecular dynamics simulation on the mutant G40R hSRY-HMG-DNA system
