| 英文摘要 | Binding of glycoprotein Ib alpha to von Willebrand factor induces platelet adhesion to injured vessel walls and initiates a multistep hemostatic process. It has been hypothesized that the flow condition could induce a loop to beta-sheet conformational change in the beta-switch region of glycoprotein Ib alpha, which regulates it binding to the von Willebrand factor and facilitates the blood clot formation and wound healing. In this work, direct molecular dynamics (MD), flow MD and metadynamics, were employed to investigate the mechanisms of this flow induced conformational transition process. Specifically, the free energy landscape of the whole transition process was drawn by metadynamics with the path collective variable approach. The results reveal that without flow, the free energy landscape has two main basins, including a random loop basin stabilized by large conformational entropy and a partially folded beta-sheet basin. The free energy barrier separating these two basins is relatively high and the beta-switch could not fold from loop to beta-sheet state spontaneously. The fully beta-sheet conformations located in high free energy regions, which are also unstable and gradually unfold into partially folded beta-sheet state with flow. Relatively weak flow could trigger some folding of the beta-switch but could not fold it into fully beta-sheet state. Under strong flow conditions, the beta-switch could readily overcome the high free energy barrier and fold into fully beta-sheet state. (C) 201 5 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
