1Incomplete structural details of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) fatty acid synthase-I (FAS-I) at near-atomic resolution have limited our understanding of the shuttling mechanism of its mobile acyl carrier protein (ACP). Here, we have performed atomistic molecular dynamics simulation of Mtb FAS- I with a homology-modelled structure of ACP stalled at dehydratase (DH), and identified key residues that mediate anchoring of the recognition helix of ACP near DH. The observed distance between catalytic residues of ACP and DH agrees with that reported for fungal FAS-I. Further, the conformation of the peripheral linker is found to be crucial in stabilizing ACP near DH. Correlated inter-domain motion is observed between DH, enoyl reductase (ER) and malonyl/palmitoyl transferase (MPT); consistent with prior experimental reports of fungal and Mtb FAS-I.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
