Quantum chemical modelling in the research of molecular mechanisms of enzymatic catalysis
RUSSIAN CHEMICAL REVIEWS, 81:1011-1025, 2012
The advantages and disadvantages of various methods of theoretical modelling of mechanisms of enzymatic reactions based on quantum theory are discussed. Molecular mechanical, quantum mechanical and hybrid approaches are considered. Detailed analysis is performed in relation to a superfamily of enzymes, serine hydrolases, which include cholinesterases playing a crucial role in higher nervous activity. As another example, the results of modelling of enzymatic hydrolysis of nucleoside phosphates are considered. The bibliography includes 177 references.
