Taxonomy: Technique Branch / Method. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.

Summary

Likelihood maximization analysis is a computational method for selecting reaction coordinate models for individual substeps of a conformational transition and inferring tentative transition states. In the cited application, it was applied to transition path sampling data from explicit-solvent molecular dynamics of the millisecond partial unfolding transition in the photoactive yellow protein photocycle.

Usefulness & Problems

Why this is useful

This method is useful for extracting mechanistic models of conformational transitions from existing simulation data without requiring additional simulations. The cited study used it to obtain reaction coordinate models and tentative transition states for substeps within a light-induced protein conformational change.

Problem solved

It addresses the problem of identifying plausible reaction coordinates and transition-state locations for complex, multistep conformational transitions. In the available evidence, this problem was framed in the context of the millisecond partial unfolding transition in photoactive yellow protein.
