Protein structures provide valuable information for understanding biological processes. Protein structures can be determined by experimental methods such as X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, or cryogenic electron microscopy. As an alternative, in silico methods can be used to predict protein structures. Those methods utilize protein structure databases for structure prediction via template-based modeling or for training machine-learning models to generate predictions. Structure prediction for proteins distant from proteins with known structures often results in lower accuracy with respect to the true physiological structures. Physics-based protein model refinement methods can be applied to improve model accuracy in the predicted models. Refinement methods rely on conformational sampling around the predicted structures, and if structures closer to the native states are sampled, improvements in the model quality become possible. Molecular dynamics simulations have been especially successful for improving model qualities but although consistent refinement can be achieved, the improvements in model qualities are still moderate. To extend the refinement performance of a simulation-based protocol, we explored new schemes that focus on an optimized use of biasing functions and the application of increased simulation temperatures. In addition, we tested the use of alternative initial models so that the simulations can explore conformational space more broadly. Based on the insight of this analysis we are proposing a new refinement protocol that significantly outperformed previous state-of-the-art molecular dynamics simulation-based protocols in the benchmark tests described here. <br>

Simulation Results

The Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin films is an important property. This paper focused to investigate the Youngs Modulus of Multilayered Ni/Cu Multilayered nanoThin Films under different condition by Molecular Dynamics Simulation. The NVT ensemble and COMPASS potential function were employed in the simulation. The multilayered nanothin film contained the Ni and Cu thin films in sequence. From simulation results, it is found that the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film is different at different lattice orientations, temperatures and strain rate. After experiments, it can be found that the Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film in the plane (100) is highest. As thickness of the thin film and system temperature rises, Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film is reduced instead. And, the strain rate increases, the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film will also increase.

Modeling and simulation is another way of finding the interaction between different drugs and chemical species with human cell. Preliminary studies before clinical trial involve computer simulation based on the physical modeling so that clinical trial can be made easier. In many aspects of drug developing, simulation is an essential tool. Here molecular dynamics simulation is performed for the interaction of the spike protein of Covid-19 virus and some of the recently used drugs. Also, the effect of caffeine, theanine, nicotine etc on the virus is found by simulation
