Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Samuel Mwatha's research focuses on the atomic-level characterization of lipid interactions with multidrug resistance proteins, specifically the bovine multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (bMRP1). He employs molecular dynamics simulations and free energy perturbation methods to explore these interactions, as well as nucleotide binding. His work investigates how lipids and nucleotides modulate the transport cycle of these proteins. Mwatha has co-authored three publications on these topics, with the most recent appearing in 2025. His key collaborators at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville include Mortaza Derakhshani-Molayousefi, Matthew Brownd, and Ahmed Shubbar, with whom he shares multiple publications.
