    Abstract Two proteins of the Escherichia coli membrane protein complex, CsgG and CsgF, are studied as proteinaceous nanopores for DNA sequencing. It is highly desirable to control the DNA as it moves through the pores, this requires characterisation of DNA translocation and subsequent optimization of the pores. In order to inform protein engineering to improve the pores, we have conducted a series of molecular dynamics simulations to characterise the mechanical strength and conformational dynamics of CsgG and the CsgG-CsgF complex and how these impact ssDNA, water and ion movement. We find that the barrel of CsgG is more susceptible to damage from external electric fields compared to the protein vestibule. Furthermore, the presence of CsgF within the CsgG-CsgF complex enables the complex to withstand higher electric fields. We find that the eyelet loops of CsgG play a key role in both slowing the translocation rate of DNA and modulating the conductance of the pore. CsgF also impacts the DNA translocation rate, but to a lesser degree than CsgG.

    Abstract The photoisomerization reaction of a fluorescent protein chromophore occurs on the ultrafast timescale. The structural dynamics that result from femtosecond optical excitation have contributions from vibrational and electronic processes and from reaction dynamics that involve the crossing through a conical intersection. The creation and progression of the ultrafast structural dynamics strongly depends on optical and molecular parameters. When using X-ray crystallography as a probe of ultrafast dynamics, the origin of the observed nuclear motions is not known. Now, high-resolution pump-probe X-ray crystallography reveals complex sub-ångström, ultrafast motions and hydrogen-bonding rearrangements in the active site of a fluorescent protein. However, we demonstrate that the measured motions are not part of the photoisomerization reaction but instead arise from impulsively driven coherent vibrational processes in the electronic ground state. A coherent-control experiment using a two-colour and two-pulse optical excitation strongly amplifies the X-ray crystallographic difference density, while it fully depletes the photoisomerization process. A coherent control mechanism was tested and confirmed the wave packets assignment.
