Chemical Theory and Multiscale Simulation in Biomolecules: From Principles to Case Studies helps readers understand what simulation is, what information modeling of biomolecules can provide, and how to compare this information with experiments. Beginning with an introduction to computational theory for modeling, the book goes on to describe how to control the conditions of modeling systems and possible strategies for time-cost savings in computation. Part Two further outlines key methods, with step-by-step guidance supporting readers in studying and practicing simulation processes. Part Three then shows how these theories are controlled and applied in practice, through examples and case studies on varied applications. This book is a practical guide for new learners, supporting them in learning and applying molecular modeling in practice, whilst also providing more experienced readers with the knowledge needed to gain a deep understanding of the theoretical background behind key methods. Presents computational theory alongside case studies to help readers understand the use of simulation in practice Includes extensive examples of different types of simulation methods and approaches to result analysis Provides an overview of the current academic frontier and research challenges, encouraging creativity and directing attention to current problems

Multiscale Simulations and Mechanics of Biological Materials A compilation of recent developments in multiscale simulation and computational biomaterials written by leading specialists in the field Presenting the latest developments in multiscale mechanics and multiscale simulations, and offering a unique viewpoint on multiscale modelling of biological materials, this book outlines the latest developments in computational biological materials from atomistic and molecular scale simulation on DNA, proteins, and nano-particles, to meoscale soft matter modelling of cells, and to macroscale soft tissue and blood vessel, and bone simulations. Traditionally, computational biomaterials researchers come from biological chemistry and biomedical engineering, so this is probably the first edited book to present work from these talented computational mechanics researchers. The book has been written to honor Professor Wing Liu of Northwestern University, USA, who has made pioneering contributions in multiscale simulation and computational biomaterial in specific simulation of drag delivery at atomistic and molecular scale and computational cardiovascular fluid mechanics via immersed finite element method. Key features: Offers a unique interdisciplinary approach to multiscale biomaterial modelling aimed at both accessible introductory and advanced levels Presents a breadth of computational approaches for modelling biological materials across multiple length scales (molecular to whole-tissue scale), including solid and fluid based approaches A companion website for supplementary materials plus links to contributors’ websites (www.wiley.com/go/li/multiscale)

Biophysical Approaches for the Study of Membrane Structure, Part B, Volume 701 explores lipid membrane asymmetry and lateral heterogeneity. A burst of recent research has shown that bilayers whose leaflets differ in their physical properties—such as composition, phase state, or lateral stress—exhibit many fascinating new characteristics, but also pose a host of challenges related to their creation, characterization, simulation, and theoretical description. Chapters in this new release include Characterization of domain formation in complex membranes: Analyzing the bending modulus from simulations of complex membranes, The density-threshold affinity: Calculating lipid binding affinities from unbiased Coarse-Grain Molecular Dynamics simulations, and much more. Additional sections cover Uncertainty quantification for trans-membrane stresses and moments from simulation, Using molecular dynamics simulations to generate small-angle scattering curves and cryo-EM images of proteoliposomes, Binary Bilayer Simulations for Partitioning Within Membranes, Modeling Asymmetric Cell Membranes at All-atom Resolution, Multiscale remodeling of biomembranes and vesicles, Building complex membranes with Martini 3, Predicting lipid sorting in curved bilayer membranes, Simulating asymmetric membranes using P21 periodic boundary conditions, and many other interesting topics. Explore the state-of-the-art of lipid membrane asymmetry Covers experimental, theoretical, and computational techniques to create and characterize asymmetric lipid membranes Teaches how these kinds of approaches create and characterize laterally inhomogeneous membranes

The chemical and biological sciences face unprecedented opportunities in the 21st century. A confluence of factors from parallel universes - advances in experimental techniques in biomolecular structure determination, progress in theoretical modeling and simulation for large biological systems, and breakthroughs in computer technology - has opened new avenues of opportunity as never before. Now, experimental data can be interpreted and further analysed by modeling, and predictions from any approach can be tested and advanced through companion methodologies and technologies. This two volume set describes innovations in biomolecular modeling and simulation, in both the algorithmic and application fronts. With contributions from experts in the field, the books describe progress and innovation in areas including: simulation algorithms for dynamics and enhanced configurational sampling, force field development, implicit solvation models, coarse-grained models, quantum-mechanical simulations, protein folding, DNA polymerase mechanisms, nucleic acid complexes and simulations, RNA structure analysis and design and other important topics in structural biology modeling. The books are aimed at graduate students and experts in structural biology and chemistry and the emphasis is on reporting innovative new approaches rather than providing comprehensive reviews on each subject.
