| Abstract | Cysteine protease is ubiquitous in nature. Excess activity of this enzyme causes intercellular proteolysis, muscle tissue degradation, etc. The role of water-mediated interactions in the stabilization of catalytically significant Asp158 and His159 was investigated by performing molecular dynamics simulation studies of 16 three-dimensional structures of plant thiol proteases. In the simulated structures, the hydrophilic W1, W2 and WD1 centers form hydrogen bonds with the OD1 atom of Asp158 and the ND1 atom of His159. In the solvated structures, another water molecule, WE, forms a hydrogen bond with the NE2 atom of His159. In the absence of the water molecule WE, Trp177 (NE1) and Gln19 (NE2) directly interact with the NE2 atom of His159. All these hydrophilic centers (the locations of W1, W2, WD1, and WE) are conserved, and they play a critical role in the stabilization of His–Asp complexes. In the water dynamics of solvated structures, the water molecules W1 and W2 form a water...water hydrogen-bonded network with a few other water molecules. A few dynamical conformations or transition states involving direct (His159 ND1...Asp158 OD1) and water-mediated (His159 ND1...W2...Asp158 OD1) hydrogen-bonded complexes are envisaged from these studies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
