Application of advanced models of electromigration by means of computer software
Malý, Michal ; Dubský, Pavel (advisor) ; Petr, Jan (referee) ; Thormann, Wolfgang (referee)
Motion of ions under the influence of electric field has been a subject of scientific interest for many decades. Capillary electrophoresis in particular benefited greatly from this research and mathematical models of electromigration applicable to capillary electrophoresis have been developed. As the sophistication of the models grew, so did the computational demands to evaluate them. In order to fully exploit the possibilities of advanced mathematical models a computer implementation capable of solving non-trivial problems at sufficient speed is necessary. This dissertation thesis explores applications of computer implementations of mathematical models re- lated to electromigration in two different areas. The main focus of this thesis is on the topic of linear theory of electromigration. We discuss the extension of the linear theory of electromigration beyond of just acid-base equilibria and computer implementation of this extented theory which is specialized to include complex-forming equilibria in order to be able to deal with affinity capillary electrophoresis prob- lems. Some technical aspects of the computer implementation are also discussed. This is followed upon by investigating certain selected affinity capillary electrophoresis systems. The purpose of this investi- gation is to re-derive...

Systematic calculations were performed to uncover the free energy surfaces for hydrolytic reactions of methyl-diphosphate (in vacuum and implicit solvents) and GTP in EF-Tu active site. Density functional theory and ONIOM extrapolative QM/MM scheme were adopted for the assay. In accordance with experiments, the catalytic effect of the sodium cation was mild. It changes the conformation of GTP attracting its negatively charged oxygen atoms. hydrolýze GTP. The Na+ also equilibrates the charges of all phosphate groups of the GTP mostly by transferring electrons from gamma to beta-phosphate group, which is characteristic for the intermediate states during the hydrolytic reaction.
