Exploring ligand binding pathways on proteins using hypersound-accelerated molecular dynamics

Molecular dynamics (MD) techniques enable atomic-level observations, but simulations of “slow” biomolecular processes are challenging because of current computer speed limitations. Here, the authors develop a method to accelerate MD simulations by high-frequency ultrasound perturbation and reveal bi...

Sumario:Molecular dynamics (MD) techniques enable atomic-level observations, but simulations of “slow” biomolecular processes are challenging because of current computer speed limitations. Here, the authors develop a method to accelerate MD simulations by high-frequency ultrasound perturbation and reveal binding events between the protein CDK2 and its small-molecule inhibitors.
