Description
Summary:<p align="justify">Protein L is an immunoglobulin protein, which has been known to have a rigid substructure, when it was stretched by atomic force microscope (AFM) in the previous study. The AFM experiment, however, was not able to provide information about the precise location of the rigid substructure in protein L and also the factors responsible for its mechanical property due to the limitation in the capability of the instrument. This problem was handled in the current study by simulating the stretching experiment with steered molecular dynamics (SMD) method.<p align="justify">
