The Hin-DNA complex is a molecular complex formed by the C-terminal 52mer peptide of the Hin-recombinase and a synthetic 13-bp hixL DNA. The peptide has three alpha-helices, the second and third of which form the helix-turn-helix motif to bind to the major groove. Both termini of the peptide reside within the minor groove. Three molecular dynamics simulations were performed based on the crystal structure of the Hin-DNA complex: one for the free Hin peptide, one for the free hixL DNA, and one for ...[more]
