Ion motions in molecular dynamics simulations on DNA.
Counterions play a significant role in DNA structure and function, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations offer the prospect of detailed description of the dynamical structure of ions at the molecular level. However, the motions of mobile counterions are notably slow to converge in MD on DNA. Obtaining accurate and reliable MD simulations requires knowing just how much sampling is required for...
متن کاملVisualizing Functional Motions of Membrane Transporters with Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Computational modeling and molecular simulation techniques have become an integral part of modern molecular research. Various areas of molecular sciences continue to benefit from, indeed rely on, the unparalleled spatial and temporal resolutions offered by these technologies, to provide a more complete picture of the molecular problems at hand. Because of the continuous development of more effi...
متن کاملHidden Markov models from molecular dynamics simulations on DNA.
An enhanced bioinformatics tool incorporating the participation of molecular structure as well as sequence in protein DNA recognition is proposed and tested. Boltzmann probability models of sequence-dependent DNA structure from all-atom molecular dynamics simulations were obtained and incorporated into hidden Markov models (HMMs) that can recognize molecular structural signals as well as sequen...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulations of Atomic Collisions for Ion Irradiation Experiments
An understanding of the way damage is formed during ion implantation of solids is very important in many research and industrial applications. One of the best ways to study damage formation theoretically is provided by molecular dynamics simulations, in which the movement of atoms is followed by solving numerically the equations of motion. The purpose of work described in this thesis has been t...
متن کاملInsight Derived from Molecular Dynamics Simulations into Molecular Motions, Thermodynamics and Kinetics of HIV-1 gp120
Although the crystal structures of the HIV-1 gp120 core bound and pre-bound by CD4 are known, the details of dynamics involved in conformational equilibrium and transition in relation to gp120 function have remained elusive. The homology models of gp120 comprising the N- and C-termini and loops V3 and V4 in the CD4-bound and CD4-unbound states were built and subjected to molecular dynamics (MD)...
