Coarse-Grained Simulations of Model Polymer Nanofibres
We describe the development of a coarse-grained (CG) force field for nylon-6 (polycaprolactam) and its application to the simulation of the structure and macromolecular dynamics within cylindrical fibres formed by this polymer, having diameters in the 14–28nm range. Our CG model is based on the MARTINI force field for the non-bonded interactions and on Boltzmanninverted gas-phase atomistic simu...
متن کاملHolliday Junction Thermodynamics and Structure: Coarse-Grained Simulations and Experiments
Holliday junctions play a central role in genetic recombination, DNA repair and other cellular processes. We combine simulations and experiments to evaluate the ability of the 3SPN.2 model, a coarse-grained representation designed to mimic B-DNA, to predict the properties of DNA Holliday junctions. The model reproduces many experimentally determined aspects of junction structure and stability, ...
متن کاملCoarse-grained molecular simulations of allosteric cooperativity.
Interactions between a protein and a ligand are often accompanied by a redistribution of the population of thermally accessible conformations. This dynamic response of the protein's functional energy landscape enables a protein to modulate binding affinities and control binding sensitivity to ligand concentration. In this paper, we investigate the structural origins of binding affinity and allo...
متن کاملCoarse-grained simulations of membranes under tension.
We investigate the properties of membranes under tension by Monte Carlo simulations of a generic coarse-grained model for lipid bilayers. We give a comprising overview of the behavior of several membrane characteristics, such as the area per lipid, the monolayer overlap, the nematic order, and pressure profiles. Both the low-temperature regime, where the membranes are in a gel L(beta(')) phase,...
متن کاملCoarse-grained protein molecular dynamics simulations.
A limiting factor in biological science is the time-scale gap between experimental and computational trajectories. At this point, all-atom explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) are clearly too expensive to explore long-range protein motions and extract accurate thermodynamics of proteins in isolated or multimeric forms. To reach the appropriate time scale, we must then resort to coarse grain...
