Molecular dynamics simulations of the dimerization of transmembrane alpha-helices.
Membrane proteins account for nearly a quarter of all genes, but their structure and function remain incompletely understood. Most membrane proteins have transmembrane (TM) domains made up of bundles of hydrophobic alpha-helices. The lateral association of TM helices within the lipid bilayer is a ke...
