چکیده | ||
Serum Albumin is the most abundant protein in blood plasma. Its two major roles are maintaining osmotic pressure and depositing and transporting compounds. In this paper Albumin-Ethanol/Water solutions simulations are carried out by three techniques including Monte Carlo (MC), Molecular Dynamic (MD) and Langevin Dynamic (LD) simulations in aqueous solutions. Investigation the energy changes with time and temperature (between 273K to 303K) showed that MC technique is not suitable for macromolecule simulations. Also by comparing optimized energy in Albumin-water system and Albumin-Ethanol systems, it is distinguished that Albumin-Ethanol systems are more stable. So Ethanol can poison Albumin. Also the heat capacity of these systems is evaluated and it is shown that if the molecular mass of solvent increases, the value of heat capacity becomes more. | ||
