The role of disulfide bonds in a Solanum tuberosum saposin-like protein investigated using molecular dynamics

The Solanum tuberosum plant specific insert (StPSI) has a defensive role in potato plants, with the requirements of acidic pH and anionic lipids. The StPSI contains a set of three highly conserved disulfide bonds that bridge the protein's helical domains. Removal of these bonds leads to enhance...
