This study aims to explore the structural basis of DGAT1's substrate recognition by investigating each substrate's pathway to the reaction chamber. Using a human DGAT1 cryo-EM structure in complex with an oleoyl-CoA substrate, we designed two different all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulation systems: DGAT1<sup>away</sup> (both acyl-CoA and DAG away from the reaction chamber) and DGAT1<sup>bound</sup> (acyl-CoA bound in and DAG away from the reaction chamber). Our DGAT1<sup>away</sup> simulations reveal that acyl-CoA approaches the reaction chamber via interactions with positively charged residues in transmembrane helix 7. DGAT1<sup>bound</sup> simulations show DAGs entering into the reaction chamber from the cytosol leaflet. The bound acyl-CoA's fatty acid lines up with the headgroup of DAG, which appears to be competent to TAG formation. We then converted them into TAG and coenzyme (CoA) and used adaptive biasing force (ABF) simulations to explore the egress pathways of the products. We identify their escape routes, which are aligned with their respective entry pathways.

These methods are applied to investigate the mechanism behind the transition mutation from guanine:cytosine (G:C) to adenine:thymine (A:T) in DNA containing O6-methylguanine (O6-MeG) lesions. The mutagenicity of O6-MeG has long been debated, with various geometric and energetic factors proposed. Using TS/TB and TS/TB-EDA, we compare the electronic structures of damaged and undamaged base pairs at the mutation site during DNA replication, emphasizing the energetic components that influence base pair binding. Our analysis explores the strengths of individual orbital interactions, such as <span></span><math>\u0000 <semantics>\u0000 <mrow>\u0000 <mi>π</mi>\u0000 </mrow>\u0000 <annotation>$$ pi $$</annotation>\u0000 </semantics></math>-bonds and hydrogen bonds, as well as decomposes the total binding energy between DNA bases into the physical components. We find that the electronic structure of the O6-MeG lesion closely resembles that of A rather than G, while the O6-MeG:T pair exhibits energetic and geometric characteristics similar to A:T. This similarity suggests the explanation for the polymerase's preference for pairing O6-MeG with T. The obtained results are consistent with experimental data and provide insights into the high O6-MeG:T mismatch rate observed in O6-MeG damaged DNA sequences.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":188,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Chemistry","volume":"46 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143845851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
