Project

Our project modeled the interaction between a glucose molecule and a previously engineered and tested glucose biosensor (Fig. 1).

Figure 1 - Our biosensor in its environment. The protein, colored yellow and in the drawing method New Cartoon, is in an aqueous environment, which is shown by the blue molecules. Glucose is bound to the biosensor, and is colored red.

Figure 2 -Our biosensor without a glucose molecule. The biosensor is colored yellow (representation: NewCartoon).

Figure 3 - Our biosensor bound to a glucose molecule. The biosensor is colored yellow (representation: NewCartoon) and the glucose molecule is colored blue and red (representation: VDW).

Figure 4 - This is the catalytic domain of our original biosensor without glucose bound to it.

Figure 5 - This is the catalytic domain of our original biosensor with glucose.
