The aim of this thesis is to understand the folding mechanisms of flavodoxin protein through simulations based on Langevin dynamics. After a first thermodynamical analysis, a study on simulations of mechanical unzipping will be carried out. The results of the coarse-grained simulations will be then compared to the known results obtained through optical tweezers experiments.

Abstract
The aim of this thesis is to understand the folding mechanisms of flavodoxin protein through simulations based on Langevin dynamics. After a first thermodynamical analysis, a study on simulations of mechanical unzipping will be carried out. The results of the coarse-grained simulations will be then compared to the known results obtained through optical tweezers experiments.File in questo prodotto:
