Langevin Dynamics of a Polymer with Internal Distance Constraints
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a novel and rigorous approach to the Langevin dynamics of ideal polymer chains subject to internal distance constraints. The permanent constraints are modelled by harmonic potentials in the limit when the strength of the potential approaches infinity (hard crosslinks). The crosslinks are assumed to exist between arbitrary pairs of monomers. Formally exact expressions for the resolvent and spectral density matrix of the system are derived. To illustrate the method we study the diffusional behavior of monomers in the vicinity of a single crosslink within the framework of the Rouse model. The same problem has been studied previously by Warner (J. Phys. C: Solid State Phys. 14, 4985, (1981)) on the basis of Lagrangian multipliers. Here we derive the full, hence exact, solution to the problem. 61.41.+e, 64.60.Cn, 87.15.By

Potassium Channels allow potassium flux and are essential for the generation of electric current acrossexcitable membranes. Potassium Channels are also the targets of various intracellular controlmechanisms; such that the suboptimal regulation of channel function might be related to pathologicalconditions. Realistic studies of ion current in biologic channels present a major challenge for compu...

The determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a Macromolecule. Italso reflects molecular compactness shape. In this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. We studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for Acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...
متن کاملMultiple time scale dynamics of distance fluctuations in a semiflexible polymer: a one-dimensional generalized Langevin equation treatment.
Time-dependent fluctuations in the distance x(t) between two segments along a polymer are one measure of its overall conformational dynamics. The dynamics of x(t), modeled as the coordinate of a particle moving in a one-dimensional potential well in thermal contact with a reservoir, is treated with a generalized Langevin equation whose memory kernel K(t) can be calculated from the time-correlat...
متن کاملHow to remove the spurious resonances from ring polymer molecular dynamics.
Two of the most successful methods that are presently available for simulating the quantum dynamics of condensed phase systems are centroid molecular dynamics (CMD) and ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD). Despite their conceptual differences, practical implementations of these methods differ in just two respects: the choice of the Parrinello-Rahman mass matrix and whether or not a thermosta...
