The structural analysis also disclosed the similarities and differences between the models (Vtx1-1 and Vtx2). Furthermore, the thermal stability profile of plasmid-mediated nonO157 VTEC were studied. The molecular dynamics simulations of plasmid-mediated non-O157 VTEC structures (Vtx1-1 and Vtx2) illustrated the interactions between amino acids. On the other hand, Vtx1-1 and Vtx2 showed noticeable differences in their relative conformational flexibility and stability at elevated temperature. However, it is expected that the information of the thermal stable of plasmid-mediated non-O157 VTEC models can be used for potential vaccine candidate through protein engineering in future. |
