Abstract

We employ molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the influence of boridene on the behavior of a protein model, HP35, with the aim of assessing the potential biotoxicity of boridene. Our MD results reveal that HP35 can undergo unfolding via an "anchoring-perturbation" mechanism upon adsorption onto the boridene surface. Specifically, the third helix of HP35 becomes tightly anchored to the boridene surface through strong electrostatic interactions between the abundant molybdenum atoms on the boridene surface and the oxygen atoms on the HP35 backbone. Meanwhile, the first helix, experiencing continuous perturbation from the surrounding water solution over an extended period, suffers from potential breakage of hydrogen bonds, ultimately resulting in its unfolding. Our findings not only propose, for the first time to our knowledge, the "anchoring-perturbation" mechanism as a guiding principle for protein unfolding but also reveal the potential toxicity of boridene on protein structures.

摘要

我们采用分子动力学(MD)模拟来研究硼烯对蛋白质模型HP35行为的影响,目的是评估硼烯的潜在生物毒性。我们的MD结果表明,HP35在吸附到硼烯表面时可通过“锚定-扰动”机制发生去折叠。具体而言,HP35的第三螺旋通过硼烯表面丰富的钼原子与HP35主链上的氧原子之间的强静电相互作用紧密锚定在硼烯表面。同时,第一螺旋在较长时间内受到周围水溶液的持续扰动,氢键可能断裂,最终导致其去折叠。我们的发现不仅首次提出了“锚定-扰动”机制作为蛋白质去折叠的指导原则,还揭示了硼烯对蛋白质结构的潜在毒性。
