The results are in good agreement with the available experimental results (Horowitz, P. M.; Butler, M. Interactive Intermediates Are Formed During the Urea Unfolding of Rhodanese. J. Biol. Chem. 1993, 268 (4), 2500−2504. Shibatani, T.; Kramer, G.; Hardesty, B.; Horowitz, P. M. Domain Separation Precedes Global Unfolding of Rhodanese. J. Biol. Chem. 1999, 274 (47), 33795−33799. Ybarra, J.; Bhattacharyya, A. M.; Panda, M.; Horowitz, P. M. Active Rhodanese Lacking Nonessential Sulfhydryl Groups Contains an Unstable C-Terminal Domain and Can Be Bound, Inactivated, and Reactivated by GroEL. J. Biol. Chem. 2003, 278 (3), 1693−1699). Besides that our simulation can also depict more dynamic details of the unfolding process. The solvent accessible surface area (SASA) shows a remarkable increase mainly due to a more exposed hydrophobic area, indicating that the hydrophobic interaction is considerably weaker at high temperatures. Comparisons between the thermal stabilities of equivalent secondary structures in both domains suggest that the C-domain is more fragile than the N-domain and the breaking down of the secondary structures follows the pattern [α-helix]→[bend, turn, 3-helix, and 5-helix]. Different regimes of unfolding intermediates have also been discussed.
