A quantum mechanical polarizable force field for biomolecular interactions.
We introduce a quantum mechanical polarizable force field (QMPFF) fitted solely to QM data at the MP2/aTZ(-hp) level. Atomic charge density is modeled by point-charge nuclei and floating exponentially shaped electron clouds. The functional form of interaction energy parallels quantum mechanics by including electrostatic, exchange, induction, and dispersion terms. Separate fitting of each term t...
متن کاملIon solvation thermodynamics from simulation with a polarizable force field.
Thermodynamic measurements of the solvation of salts and electrolytes are relatively straightforward, but it is not possible to separate total solvation free energies into distinct cation and anion contributions without reference to an additional extrathermodynamic assumption. The present work attempts to resolve this difficulty using molecular dynamics simulations with the AMOEBA polarizable f...
متن کاملMicrowave spectroscopy of biomolecular building blocks.
Microwave spectroscopy, considered as the most definitive gas phase structural probe, is able to distinguish between different conformational structures of a molecule, because they have unique spectroscopic constants and give rise to distinct individual rotational spectra.Previously, application of this technique was limited to molecular specimens possessing appreciable vapor pressures, thus di...
متن کاملGas-phase spectroscopy of biomolecular building blocks.
Gas-phase spectroscopy lends itself ideally to the study of isolated molecules and provides important data for comparison with theory. In recent years, we have seen enormous progress in the study of biomolecular building blocks in the gas phase. The motivation for such work is threefold: (a) It is important to distinguish between intrinsic molecular properties and properties that result from th...
متن کاملDirect Wolf summation of a polarizable force field for silica.
We extend the Wolf direct, pairwise r(-1) summation method with spherical truncation to dipolar interactions in silica. The Tangney-Scandolo interatomic force field for silica takes regard of polarizable oxygen atoms whose dipole moments are determined by iteration to a self-consistent solution. With Wolf summation, the computational effort scales linearly in the system size and can easily be d...
