RMS2D Heatmap Edge Detection and K-Means Clustering Analysis to Determine Stable Segments of MD Trajectories

Abstract: Using molecular dynamics (MD) methods, we’ve identified a subsystem of the ribosome termed the CAR interaction surface that we hypothesize regulates translation of mRNA by altering the CAR surface differently depending on the +1 codon. MD simulations of this area of the ribosome can be used to study the behavior of this dynamic system … Read more
