On the Nonpolar Hydration Free Energy of Proteins: Surface Area and Continuum Solvent Models for the Solute−Solvent Interaction Energy

Levy, Ronald M., Zhang, Linda Y., Gallicchio, Emilio, Felts, Anthony K.·2003·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

Implicit solvent hydration free energy models are an important component of most modern computational methods aimed at protein structure prediction, binding affinity prediction, and modeling of conformational equilibria. The nonpolar component of the hydration free energy, consisting of a repulsive cavity term and an attractive van der Waals solute-solvent interaction term, is often modeled using estimators based on the solvent exposed solute surface area. In this paper, we analyze the accuracy of linear surface area models for predicting the van der Waals solute-solvent interaction energies of native and non-native protein conformations, peptides and small molecules, and the desolvation penalty of protein-protein and protein-ligand binding complexes. The target values are obtained from explicit solvent simulations and from a continuum solvent van der Waals interaction energy model. The results indicate that the standard surface area model, while useful on a coarse-grained scale, may not be accurate or transferable enough for high resolution modeling studies of protein folding and binding. The continuum model constructed in the course of this study provides one path for the development of a computationally efficient implicit solvent nonpolar hydration free energy estimator suitable for high-resolution structural and thermodynamic modeling of biological macromolecules.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
