Molecular Simulations of Antimicrobial Peptides

关键词: molecular simulations antimicrobial peptides来源: 互联网

Recent advances in molecular dynamics (MD) simulation methods and in available computational resources have allowed for more reliable simulations of biological phenomena. From all-atom MD simulations, we are now able to visualize in detail the interactions between antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and a variety of membrane mimics. This helps us to understand the molecular mechanisms of antimicrobial activity and toxicity. This chapter describes how to set up and conduct molecular dynamics simulations of AMPs and membrane mimics. Details are given for the construction of systems of interest for studying AMPs, which can include simulations of peptides in water, micelles, or lipid bilayers. Explanations of the parameters needed for running a simulation are provided as well.
