Conformational dynamics of a lipid-interacting protein: MD simulations of saposin B.

Saposin B is a water soluble alpha-helical protein which can bind to membranes and extract selected lipids, especially cerebroside sulfates. The X-ray structure of saposin B is homodimeric. There are two conformations of the dimer in the crystal-one with a closed central cavity (the AB dimer) and on...
