CHARMM Force Field Parameterization of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ Ligands
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) ligands are important therapeutic drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular diseases. In particular, partial agonists and non-agonists are interesting targets to reduce glucose levels, presenting few side effects in comparison to full agonists. In this work, we present a set of CHARMM-based parameters of a mol...
متن کاملModification of the CHARMM force field for DMPC lipid bilayer
The CHARMM force field for DMPC lipids was modified in order to improve agreement with experiment for a number of important properties of hydrated lipid bilayer. The modification consists in introduction of a scaling factor 0.83 for 1-4 electrostatic interactions (between atoms separated by three covalent bonds), which provides correct transgauche ratio in the alkane tails, and recalculation of...
متن کاملAMOEBA force field parameterization of the azabenzenes
Assessment of chemical properties can often require a computationally costly sampling of a high-dimensional phase space in order accurately to predict ensemble-averaged values. Molecular mechanics simulations offer an efficient way to sample such ensembles, with the quality of the results depending on the ability of the force field adequately to describe the energetics of the system under the c...
متن کاملCHARMM general force field: A force field for drug-like molecules compatible with the CHARMM all-atom additive biological force fields
The widely used CHARMM additive all-atom force field includes parameters for proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. In the present article, an extension of the CHARMM force field to drug-like molecules is presented. The resulting CHARMM General Force Field (CGenFF) covers a wide range of chemical groups present in biomolecules and drug-like molecules, including a large number of he...
متن کاملA molecular mechanics force field for lignin
A CHARMM molecular mechanics force field for lignin is derived. Parameterization is based on reproducing quantum mechanical data of model compounds. Partial atomic charges are derived using the RESP electrostatic potential fitting method supplemented by the examination of methoxybenzene:water interactions. Dihedral parameters are optimized by fitting to critical rotational potentials and bonded...
