Free Energy Calculations using a Swarm-Enhanced Sampling Molecular Dynamics Approach
Free energy simulations are an established computational tool in modelling chemical change in the condensed phase. However, sampling of kinetically distinct substates remains a challenge to these approaches. As a route to addressing this, we link the methods of thermodynamic integration (TI) and swarm-enhanced sampling molecular dynamics (sesMD), where simulation replicas interact cooperatively...
متن کاملAtomic-level protein structure refinement using fragment-guided molecular dynamics conformation sampling.
One of critical difficulties of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in protein structure refinement is that the physics-based energy landscape lacks a middle-range funnel to guide nonnative conformations toward near-native states. We propose to use the target model as a probe to identify fragmental analogs from PDB. The distance maps are then used to reshape the MD energy funnel. The protocol w...
متن کاملExploring RNA structure and dynamics through enhanced sampling simulations.
RNA function is intimately related to its structural dynamics. Molecular dynamics simulations are useful for exploring biomolecular flexibility but are severely limited by the accessible timescale. Enhanced sampling methods allow this timescale to be effectively extended in order to probe biologically relevant conformational changes and chemical reactions. Here, we review the role of enhanced s...
متن کاملExploring SIMD for Molecular Dynamics, Using Intel
We analyse gather-scatter performance bottlenecks in molecular dynamics codes and the challenges that they pose for obtaining benefits from SIMD execution. This analysis informs a number of novel code-level and algorithmic improvements to Sandia’s miniMD benchmark, which we demonstrate using three SIMD widths (128-, 256and 512bit). The applicability of these optimisations to wider SIMD is discu...
متن کاملDiscovery of tyrosine kinase inhibitors by docking into an inactive kinase conformation generated by molecular dynamics.
Several small molecules that bind to the inactive DFG-out conformation of tyrosine kinases (called type II inhibitors) have shown a good selectivity profile over other kinase targets. To obtain a set of DFG-out structures, we performed an explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of the complex of the catalytic domain of a tyrosine kinase receptor, ephrin type-A receptor 3 (EphA3), an...
