【Significance】
Closed-open dynamics must be essential for PPIase activity of Pin1

Five-hundred ns of MD simulations of full-length wild-type Pin1 and C113A mutant were performed in order to elucidate why a mutation C113A drastically reduced the PPIase activity of Pin1. In the dynamics of wild-type protein, the phosphate binding loop (K63-S71) as well as the interdomain hinge showed the closed-open dynamics which correlated with the change of the hydrogen-bonding network of the dual-histidine motif. In contrast, in the dynamics of C113A mutant, the phosphate binding loop took only the closed conformation together with the interdomain hinge. Such closed-open dynamics must be essential for the PPIase activity of Pin1.
