Computing free energies of protein conformations from explicit solvent simulations.
We report a fully general technique addressing a long standing challenge of calculating conformational free energy differences between various states of a polymer chain from simulations using explicit solvent force fields. The main feature of our method is a special mapping variable, a path coordinate, which continuously connects two conformations. The path variable has been designed to preserv...
متن کاملUsing computer simulations to determine the limitations of dynamic
34 In previous studies we used the technique of dynamic clamp to study how temporal modulation 35 of inhibitory and excitatory inputs control the frequency and precise timing of spikes in neurons 36 of the deep cerebellar nuclei (DCN). While this technique is now widely used, it is limited to 37 interpreting conductance inputs as being location independent, i.e. all inputs that are biologically...
متن کاملPosition-dependent diffusion coefficients and free energies from Bayesian analysis of equilibrium and replica molecular dynamics simulations
Bayesian inference is used to obtain self-consistent estimates of free energies and position-dependent diffusion coefficients along complex reaction coordinates from molecular dynamics simulation trajectories. Effectively, exact solutions for the dynamics of a diffusive model are matched globally to the observed molecular dynamics data. The approach is first tested for a simple onedimensional d...
متن کاملEfficient estimation of binding free energies between peptides and an MHC class II molecule using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations with a weighted histogram analysis method
We estimate the binding free energy between peptides and an MHC class II molecule using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with the weighted histogram analysis method (WHAM). We show that, owing to its more thorough sampling in the available computational time, the binding free energy obtained by pulling the whole peptide using a coarse-grained (CG) force field (MARTINI) is less prone to signi...
متن کاملHydration free energies of cyanide and hydroxide ions from molecular dynamics simulations with accurate force fields.
The evaluation of hydration free energies is a sensitive test to assess force fields used in atomistic simulations. We showed recently that the vibrational relaxation times, 1D- and 2D-infrared spectroscopies for CN(-) in water can be quantitatively described from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with multipolar force fields and slightly enlarged van der Waals radii for the C- and N-atoms. T...
