Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Insulin: Elucidating the Conformational Changes that Enable Its Binding

A sequence of complex conformational changes is required for insulin to bind to the insulin receptor. Recent experimental evidence points to the B chain C-terminal (BC-CT) as the location of these changes in insulin. Here, we present molecular dynamics simulations of insulin that reveal new insights...
