Abstract
⺠Loop5 in Eg5 projects from the protein adjacent to the nucleotide site. ⺠Loop5 modulates Eg5 function by unresolved mechanisms. ⺠Spectroscopy has suggested that loop5 may interact with the nucleotide site. ⺠MD simulations are used to quantitatively test the interaction hypothesis. ⺠Simulations show loop5 can interact extensively with the nucleotide site.
