31. except as noted below. We have used the molecular dynamics AMBER 5 suite of programs (Case, D. A.; Pearlman, D. A.; Caldwell, J. W.; Cheatham III, T. E.; Ross, W. S.; Simmerling, C. L.; Darden, T. A.; Merz, K. M.; Stanton, R. V.; Cheng, A. L.; Vincent, J. J.; Crowley, M.; Ferguson, D. M.; Radmer, R. J.; Seibel, G. L.; Singh, U. C.; Weiner, P. K.; Kollman, P. A. AMBER 5, University of California, San Francisco, 1997),
32. with the new release of the AMBER all atoms force field (Cornell, W. D.; Cieplak P.; Bayly C. I.; Gould I. R.; Merz K. M. Jr.; Ferguson D. M.; Spellmeyer D. C.; Fox T.; Caldwell J. W.; Kollman P. A. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117, 5179). For the prosthetic group, Band's parametrization was used. No cutoff was used for the nonbonded interactions. The overall charge of the proteins (7 and 6 for oxidized and reduced forms, respectively, at physiological pH) was neutralized by adding sodium counterions. Only the water molecules and the polar hydrogens of the systems were equilibrated by performing energy minimization followed by 10 ps of molecular dynamics at 300 K.
