Molecular dynamics simulation is an important tool to capture the dynamicity of biological molecule and the atomistic insights. These insights are helpful to explore biological functions. Molecular dynamics simulation from femto seconds to milli seconds scale give a large ensemble of conformations that can reveal many biological mysteries. The main focus of the chapter is to throw light on theories, requirement of molecular dynamics for biological studies and application of molecular dynamics simulations. Molecular dynamics simulations are widely used to study protein-protein interaction, protein-ligand docking, effects of mutation on interactions, protein folding and flexibility of the biological molecules. This chapter also deals with various methods/algorithms of protein tertiary structure prediction, their strengths and weaknesses.

ABSTRACTPredicting crystallographic B-factors of a protein from a conventional molecular dynamics simulation is challenging in part because the B-factors calculated through sampling the atomic positional fluctuations in a picosecond molecular dynamics simulation are unreliable and the sampling of a longer simulation yields overly large root mean square deviations between calculated and experimental B-factors. This article reports improved B-factor prediction achieved by sampling the atomic positional fluctuations in multiple picosecond molecular dynamics simulations that use uniformly increased atomic masses by 100-fold to increase time resolution. Using the third immunoglobulin-binding domain of protein G, bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor, ubiquitin, and lysozyme as model systems, the B-factor root mean square deviations (mean ± standard error) of these proteins were 3.1 ± 0.2–9 ± 1 Å2for Cα and 7.3 ± 0.9–9.6 ± 0.2 Å2for Cγ, when the sampling was done, for each of these proteins, over 20 distinct, independent, and 50-picosecond high-mass molecular dynamics simulations using AMBER forcefield FF12MC or FF14SB. These results suggest that sampling the atomic positional fluctuations in multiple picosecond high-mass molecular dynamics simulations may be conducive toa prioriprediction of crystallographic B-factors of a folded globular protein.
