A 45-ns molecular dynamics simulation of hemoglobin in water by vectorizing and parallelizing COSMOS90 on the earth simulator : dynamics of tertiary and quaternary structures

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of human adult hemoglobin (HbA) were carried out for 45 ns in water with all degrees of freedom including bond stretching and without any artificial constraints. To perform such large-scale simulations, one of the authors (M.S.) accelerated his own software COSMOS...

520 |a Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of human adult hemoglobin (HbA) were carried out for 45 ns in water with all degrees of freedom including bond stretching and without any artificial constraints. To perform such large-scale simulations, one of the authors (M.S.) accelerated his own software COSMOS90 on the Earth Simulator by vectorization and parallelization. The dynamical features of HbA were investigated by evaluating root-mean-square deviations from the initial X-ray structure (an oxy T-state hemoglobin with PDB code: 1GZX) and root-mean-square fluctuations around the average structure from the simulation trajectories. The four subunits (alpha(1), alpha(2), beta(1), and beta(2)) of HbA maintained structures close to their respective X-ray structures during the simulations even though no constraints were applied to HbA in the simulations. Dimers alpha(1)beta(1) and alpha(2)beta(2) also maintained structures close to their respective X-ray structures while they moved relative to each other like two stacks of dumbbells. The distance between the two dimers (alpha(1)beta(1) and alpha(2)beta(2)) increased by 2 A (7.4%) in the initial 15 ns and stably fluctuated at the distance with the standard deviation 0.2 A. The relative orientation of the two dimers fluctuated between the initial X-ray angle -100 degrees and about -105 degrees with intervals of a few tens of nanoseconds
