We present a machine learning framework for modeling protein dynamics. Our approach uses L1-regularized, reversible hidden Markov models to understand large protein datasets generated via molecular dynamics simulations. Our model is…
Protein dynamics is a fundamental element to comprehend their biological functions. However, a theoretical picture providing microscopic-detail explanation of its relevant features is still missing. One of the outmost relevant properties…
A Monte Carlo method for dynamics simulation of all-atom protein models is introduced, to reach long times not accessible to conventional molecular dynamics. The considered degrees of freedom are the dihedrals at C$_\alpha$-atoms. Two Monte…
The prediction of the three-dimensional structures of the native state of proteins from the sequences of their amino acids is one of the most important challenges in molecular biology. An essential ingredient to solve this problem within…
Simulating large proteins using traditional molecular dynamics (MD) is computationally demanding. To address this challenge, we propose a novel tree-structured coarse-grained model that efficiently captures protein dynamics. By leveraging a…
Protein function does not solely depend on structure but often relies on dynamical transitions between distinct conformations. Despite this fact, our ability to characterize or predict protein dynamics is substantially less developed…
Machine learning techniques allow a direct mapping of atomic positions and nuclear charges to the potential energy surface with almost ab-initio accuracy and the computational efficiency of empirical potentials. In this work we propose a…
A simple way to get insights about the possible functional motions of a protein is to perform a normal mode analysis (NMA). Indeed, it has been shown that low-frequency modes thus obtained are often closely related to domain motions…
Coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics enables simulations of atomic systems such as biomolecules at timescales inaccessible to all-atom (AA) methods, but existing CG neural potentials trained via force matching capture only the gradient of…
The current capacity of computers makes it possible to perform simulations of small systems with portable, explicit-solvent potentials achieving high degree of accuracy. However, simplified models must be employed to exploit the behaviour…
Accelerated molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are implemented to model the sliding process of AFM experiments at speeds close to those found in experiment. In this study the hyperdynamics method, originally devised to extend MD time…
We describe a combination of all-atom simulations with CABS, a well-established coarse-grained protein modeling tool, into a single multiscale protocol. The simulation method has been tested on the C-terminal beta hairpin of protein G, a…
Proteins are made of atoms constantly fluctuating, but can occasionally undergo large-scale changes. Such transitions are of biological interest, linking the structure of a protein to its function with a cell. Atomic-level simulations, such…
Dimensionality reduction represents a crucial step in extracting meaningful insights from Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. Conventional approaches, including linear methods such as principal component analysis as well as various…
Despite significant progress in static protein structure collection and prediction, the dynamic behavior of proteins, one of their most vital characteristics, has been largely overlooked in prior research. This oversight can be attributed…
The response of proteins to chemical reactions or impulsive excitation that occurs within the molecule has fascinated chemists for decades. In recent years ultrafast X-ray studies have provided ever more detailed information about the…
Protein dynamics has been investigated on a wide range of time scales. Nano- and picosecond dynamics have been assigned to local fluctuations, while slower dynamics have been attributed to larger conformational changes. However, it is…
It is shown that a small subset of modes which are likely to be involved in protein functional motions of large amplitude can be determined by retaining the most robust normal modes obtained using different protein models. This result…
Molecular dynamics is based on solving Newton's equations for many-particle systems that evolve along complex, highly fluctuating trajectories. The orbital instability and short-time complexity of Newtonian orbits is in sharp contrast to…
Interactions between proteins are hard to decipher. Protein-protein interactions are difficult problem to address because they are not based on differences in charge type like protein-DNA or protein-lipid interactions. In this manuscript we…
