A point‐charge force field for molecular mechanics simulations of proteins based on condensed‐phase quantum mechanical calculations
Abstract Molecular mechanics models have been applied extensively to study the dynamics of proteins and nucleic acids. Here we report the development of a third‐generation point...
CHARMM fluctuating charge force field for proteins: II Protein/solvent properties from molecular dynamics simulations using a nonadditive electrostatic model
Abstract A fluctuating charge (FQ) force field is applied to molecular dynamics simulations for six small proteins in explicit polarizable solvent represented by the TIP4P‐FQ po...
Simulations of a Protein Crystal with a High Resolution X-ray Structure: Evaluation of Force Fields and Water Models
We use classical molecular dynamics and 16 combinations of force fields and water models to simulate a protein crystal observed by room-temperature X-ray diffraction. The high r...
Merck molecular force field. II. MMFF94 van der Waals and electrostatic parameters for intermolecular interactions
This article defines the parameterization and performance of MMFF94 for intermolecular interactions. It specifies the novel “buffered” functional forms used for treating van der...
Are Current Semiempirical Methods Better Than Force Fields? A Study from the Thermodynamics Perspective
The semiempirical Hamiltonians MNDO, AM1, PM3, RM1, PDDG/MNDO, PDDG/PM3, and SCC-DFTB, when used as part of a hybrid QM/MM scheme for the simulation of biological molecules, wer...
