Accurate p$K_a$ Computation Using Matched Interface and Boundary (MIB) Method Based Poisson-Boltzmann Solver

Abstract: The pK a values are important quantities characterizing the ability of protein active sites to give up protons. pK a can be measured using NMR by tracing chemicalshifts of some special atoms, which is however expensive and time-consuming. Alternatively, pK a can be calculated numerically by electrostatic free energy changes subject to the protonation and deprotonation of titration sites. To this end, the Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) model is an effective approach for the electrostatics. However, numerically solving … Show more

“…In principle, free amino acids and protein-bound amino acids and peptides react with formaldehyde, producing methylene amino acid derivatives and changing the pK a of these amino groups (Moore et al, 2010). The value pK a = -log 10 K a is the co-logarithm of acid dissociation constant (acid dissociation constant K a is a quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution), which measures the tendency for a group to give up a proton (Hu et al, 2018). The method can be applied to raw milk, drinking milk (whole, semi-skimmed and skimmed milk), milk powder or ice cream.…”

“…In this model, the explicit water molecules are treated as continuum and the dissolved electrolytes are approximated using the statistical Boltzmann distribution. The PB model has broad applications in biomolecular simulations such as protein structure [2], protein-protein interaction [3], chromatin packing [4], pKa [5][6][7], membrane [8], binding energy [9], solvation free energy [10], ion channel profiling [11], etc.…”
