Dihydrofolate reductase as a model for studies of enzyme dynamics and catalysis [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

Dihydrofolate reductase from Escherichia coli (ecDHFR) serves as a model system for investigating the role of protein dynamics in enzyme catalysis. We discuss calculations predicting a network of dynamic motions that is coupled to the chemical step catalyzed by this enzyme. Kinetic studies testing t...
