We introduce a variational approximation to the microscopic dynamics of rare conformational transitions of macromolecules. Within this framework it is possible to simulate on a small computer cluster reactions as complex as protein folding,…
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to investigate $^1$H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation and diffusion of bulk $n$-C$_5$H$_{12}$ to $n$-C$_{17}$H$_{36}$ hydrocarbons and bulk water. The MD simulations of the $^1$H NMR…
Three coarse-grained molecular dynamics (MD) models are investigated with the aim of developing and analyzing multiscale methods which use MD simulations in parts of the computational domain and (less detailed) Brownian dynamics (BD)…
Along with recent progress in structural biology and genome biology, structural dynamics of molecular systems including nucleic acids has attracted attention in the context of gene regulation. Structure-function relationship is an important…
While many good textbooks are available on Protein Structure, Molecular Simulations, Thermodynamics and Bioinformatics methods in general, there is no good introductory level book for the field of Structural Bioinformatics. This book aims…
In spite of the great success that all-atom molecular dynamics simulations have seen in revealing the nature of the lipid bilayer, the interplay between a membrane's curvature and dynamics remains elusive. This is largely due to the…
Current all-atom potential based molecular dynamics (MD) allow the identification of a protein's functional motions on a wide-range of time-scales, up to few tens of ns. However, functional large scale motions of proteins may occur on a…
We simulate the granulation process of solid spherical particles in the presence of a viscous liquid in a horizontal rotating drum by using molecular dynamics simulations in three dimensions. The numerical approach accounts for the cohesive…
In most cases the ultrafast dynamics of resonantly excited molecules are considered, and almost always computed in the molecular frame, while experiments are carried out in the laboratory frame. Here we provide a formalism in terms of a lab…
We performed molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the viscoelastic properties of aqueous protein solutions containing an antifreeze protein, a toxin protein, and bovine serum albumin. These simulations covered a temperature range…
Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to understand true atomic resolution, which has been observed on the Si(111)-7$\times$7 surface by dynamic force microscopy in ultra high vacuum(UHV). Stable atomic-scale contrast is…
A Molecular Dynamics (MD) parallel to the Control Volume (CV) formulation of fluid mechanics is developed by integrating the formulas of Irving and Kirkwood, J. Chem. Phys. 18, 817 (1950) over a finite cubic volume of molecular dimensions.…
A molecular understanding of how protein function is related to protein structure will require an ability to understand large conformational changes between multiple states. Unfortunately these states are often separated by high free energy…
Molecular dynamics has been widely used to numerically solve equation of motion of classical many-particle system. It can be used to simulate many systems including biophysics, whose complexity level is determined by the involved elements.…
Molecular dynamics simulations are an important tool for describing the evolution of a chemical system with time. However, these simulations are inherently held back either by the prohibitive cost of accurate electronic structure theory…
Unraveling the dynamical motions of biomolecules is essential for bridging their structure and function, yet it remains a major computational challenge. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation provides a detailed depiction of biomolecular…
Globular proteins undergo thermal fluctuations in solution, while maintaining an overall well-defined folded structure. In particular, studies have shown that the core structure of globular proteins differs in small, but significant ways…
Much of our mechanistic understanding of the functions of biological macromolecules is based on static structural experiments, which can be modelled either as single structures or conformational ensembles. While these provide us with…
Understanding kinetics and thermodynamics profile of biomolecules is necessary to understand their functional roles which has a major impact in mechanism driven drug discovery. Molecular dynamics simulation has been routinely used to…
Molecular dynamics is a powerful method for studying the behaviour of materials at high temperature. In practice, however, its effectiveness in representing real systems is limited by the accuracy of the forces, finite size effects,…
