DhaA can effectively degrade the chemical poison mustard gas
and poor environmental tolerance affects its application in military decontamination. However
the molecular denaturation processes of DhaA induced by urea and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) remain unclear
although it is reported that directed evolution
chemical modification and immobilization were helpful to the stabilization of DhaA. In this study
molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to investigate the denaturation processes of DhaA in urea and DMSO solutions. The results show that urea molecules can replace water to form H-bonds with DhaA and its catalytic active sites
which made main tunnel lengthened
curvature enhanced and bottleneck radius reduced. Whereas DMSO molecules can enter into hydrophobic cavity of DhaA by van der Waals interaction
which made main tunnel shortened
bottleneck radius enlarged and conformation changed. These findings reveal the differences of molecular denaturation process of DhaA in two systems
which could provide theoretical guidance for the stabilization of DhaA.
