The Role of Binding Site on the Mechanical Unfolding Mechanism of Ubiquitin

We apply novel atomistic simulations based on potential energy surface exploration to investigate the constant force-induced unfolding of ubiquitin. At the experimentally-studied force clamping level of 100 pN, we find a new unfolding mechanism starting with the detachment between β(5) and β(3) invo...
