NAMD goes quantum: An integrative suite for QM/MM simulations

Applications of hybrid QM/MM methods range from reactions in active sites of small enzymes to multiple sites in large bioenergetic complexes. By combining the widely used molecular dynamics and visualization programs NAMD/VMD with the quantum chemistry packages ORCA, and MOPAC, we provide an integra...

Descripción
Sumario:Applications of hybrid QM/MM methods range from reactions in active sites of small enzymes to multiple sites in large bioenergetic complexes. By combining the widely used molecular dynamics and visualization programs NAMD/VMD with the quantum chemistry packages ORCA, and MOPAC, we provide an integrated, comprehensive, customizable, and easy-to-use suite. Through the QwikMD interface, setup, execution, visualization, and analysis are streamlined for all levels of expertise.
