According to recent research from the United States, "The impact of fluid flow on structure and dynamics of biomolecules has recently gained much attention. In this article, we present a molecular-dynamics algorithm that serves to generate stable water flow under constant temperature, for the study of flow-induced protein behavior."

"Flow simulations were performed on the 16-residue beta-switch region of platelet glycoprotein Ib alpha, for which crystal structures of its N-terminal domain alone and in complex with the A1 domain of von Willebrand factor have been solved. Comparison of the two structures reveals a conformational change in this region, which, upon complex...
