摘要

The molecular dynamics simulation is reported. The latest data on photosystem II structure, a thylakoid membrane model with the same lipid class distribution and fatty acid composition as the native thylakoid membrane, are used. The results indicate that the transfer of water, oxygen and protons has different pathways. The root mean square (rms)-fluctuation analysis of trajectory revealed that the residues surrounding the oxygen-evolving center (OEC) show small fluctuations and that most of the water molecules there show large fluctuation and are on proposed pathways for water and oxygen transfer. The water molecules near the OEC having small fluctuation could be involved in proton transfer. We assume that each kind of pathway characterized in this study plays a role in photosynthesis.

Reversible down-regulation of photosystems I and II leads to fast photosynthesis recovery after long-term drought in Jatropha curcas

Helena Sapeta, Makio Yokono, Atsushi Takabayashi, Yoshifumi Ueno, Andre M. Cordeiro, Toshihiko Hara, Ayumi Tanaka, Seiji Akimoto, M. Margarida Oliveira, Ryouichi Tanaka

Summary: Jatropha curcas responds to drought by increasing thermal dissipation of excitation energy in both photosystems, temporarily down-regulating the quantum yields of both PSII and PSI. This helps protect the photosynthetic machinery and enables rapid recovery of photosynthetic capacity when water is available.

Barley Cultivar Sarab 1 Has a Characteristic Region on the Thylakoid Membrane That Protects Photosystem I under Iron-Deficient Conditions

Akihiro Saito, Kimika Hoshi, Yuna Wakabayashi, Takumi Togashi, Tomoki Shigematsu, Maya Katori, Takuji Ohyama, Kyoko Higuchi

Summary: The barley cultivar Sarab 1 can continue photosynthesis under low iron conditions through a reduction in P700 over-reduction and an increase in non-appressed thylakoid membranes. In contrast, another cultivar, Ehimehadaka-1, preferentially supplies iron to photosystem I to maintain photosynthetic activity. These findings highlight the multiple strategies that barley species have for acclimating photosynthesis to iron deficiency.

High-Light-Induced Degradation of Photosystem II Subunits' Involvement in the Albino Phenotype in Tea Plants

Wen-He Cai, Xin-Qiang Zheng, Yue-Rong Liang

Summary: The PSII of the light-sensitive albino tea plant is more vulnerable to high-light stress, which leads to the degradation of PSII subunits and disruption of light-harvesting chlorophyll-protein complexes, resulting in leaf bleaching. The de novo synthesis and repair of PSII subunits are involved in the impairment of PSII complexes, leading to the albino phenotype in the tea plant.

All-atom molecular dynamics simulations of Synaptotagmin-SNARE-complexin complexes bridging a vesicle and a flat lipid bilayer

Josep Rizo, Levent Sari, Yife Qi, Wonpil Im, Milo M. Lin

Summary: Synaptic vesicles are prepared for fast neurotransmitter release upon calcium binding to Synaptotagmin-1. Molecular dynamics simulations suggest that SNARE complexes induce slow formation of membrane-membrane contact interfaces. The prepared state includes macromolecular assemblies of Synaptotagmin-1 and complexin bound to trans-SNARE complexes.

Simple Parameterization of Embedded Atom Method Potentials for FCC Alloys

Murray S. Daw, Michael Chandross

Summary: We extend the parametric form of Embedded Atom Method interatomic potentials for FCC metals to treat alloys and study the dependence of alloy properties on model parameters. We introduce the concept of spread alloys, where constituent elements are defined as perturbations from an average FCC metal, and show that the model can describe the clustering and ordering tendencies of metal alloys. We prove a general theorem that alloy properties in random equimolar alloys differ from a simple rule of mixtures only based on the standard deviation among constituent parameters, independent of the number of constituents.

Simple parameterization of embedded atom method potentials for FCC metals

Murray S. Daw, Michael Chandross

Summary: We propose a simple parametric form for interatomic potentials of the Embedded Atom Method (EAM-X) for pure FCC metals and investigate the relationship between basic properties and input parameters. Instead of fitting a set of functions to experimental data or density functional theory calculations, we adopt an inside-out approach to understand how complex properties depend on the EAM-X parameters. This method enables the identification of desired parameter regions and the matching of those parameters to real elements.

A computational study of cellulose regeneration: All-atom molecular dynamics simulations

Patrick Heasman, Aleksandar Y. Mehandzhiyski, Sarbani Ghosh, Igor Zozoulenko

Summary: Processing natural cellulose requires dissolution and regeneration. The crystallinity of re-generated cellulose does not match that of native cellulose, and the physical and mechanical properties of re-generated cellulose vary depending on the technique used. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to simulate the regeneration of order in cellulose. The simulations show that cellulose chains have an affinity to align with each other on the nanosecond scale, but the end results still lack sufficient order. The time factor plays a major role in reclaiming the order of crystalline cellulose.

Role of Thylakoid Lipids in Protochlorophyllide Oxidoreductase Activation: Allosteric Mechanism Elucidated by a Computational Study

Ruiyuan Liu, Leng Wang, Yue Meng, Fang Li, Haiyu Nie, Huizhe Lu

Summary: A recent study confirmed that thylakoid lipids (TL) can activate LPOR. However, the allosteric modulation mechanism of LPOR by these compounds remains unclear. In this study, we used multiple computational approaches to explore potential cavities in Arabidopsis thaliana LPOR and identified a high-affinity binding site for phosphatidyl glycerol (PG) around the helix-G region. Through molecular dynamics simulations, we analyzed LPOR/PG and LPOR/NADPH/PG complexes and gained insights into their dynamics, energetics, and potential allosteric regulation. Our findings clarify the NADPH binding affinity for LPOR in the presence of PGs and suggest a mechanism involving lid opening upon binding of allosteric regulators to an allosteric hinge pocket.

Graphene kirigami as an ultra-permeable water desalination membrane

Yuan Gao, Weiqiang Chen, Yanming Liu, Jiangyu Wu, Hongwen Jing

Summary: The study reveals the potential of graphene kirigami (GK) as an ultra-permeable membrane for water desalination. The GK membrane demonstrates superior performance in water permeance, surpassing 103 L/m2/h/bar with complete salt rejection. The unique geometry of the kirigami structure reduces energy barrier and guides water molecules for more efficient filtration. Compared to nanoporous graphene and conventional reverse osmosis membranes, the theoretical efficiency of water permeance using GK membrane is significantly higher. Moreover, GK membranes can be mechanically deformed for practical applications.

Efficient Information Retrieval for Sensing via Continuous Measurement

Dayou Yang, Susana F. Huelga, Martin B. Plenio

Summary: Continuous monitoring of driven-dissipative quantum-optical systems is crucial for achieving highly precise measurements beyond the classical limit. We design a novel continuous-measurement strategy and develop a universal method to efficiently retrieve the quantum Fisher information. We also establish an effective formula for evaluating the quantum Fisher information of the emission field of driven-dissipative open sensors.

Modulation of post-powerstroke dynamics in myosin II by 2′-deoxy-ADP

Matthew Carter Childers, Michael Geeves, Valerie Daggett, Michael Regnier

Summary: Researchers investigated whether the dynamics of the post-powerstroke state of the cross-bridge cycle are modulated in a nucleotide-dependent fashion, finding that different nucleotides interact with myosin in distinct ways and influence the flexibility and structure of the protein. Specifically, replacing ADP with dADP in the post-powerstroke state altered the conformation of the actin binding region in myosin heads. This study provides atomic level insights into allosteric communication networks in myosin and the nucleotide-dependent dynamics of the cross-bridge cycle.

Investigation of Cooperative Modes for Collective Molecules Using Grid-Based Principal Component Analysis

Koji Ogata

Summary: The study reveals that collective molecules exhibit cooperative principal component (PC) modes forming vorticial or torus-like structures, not only in water or methane molecules but also in proteins. Cooperative motions of proteins and surrounding water molecules strongly contribute to protein structure and function, influencing PC mode structures and indicating similarities in proteins with the same folds.
