Combining Machine Learning and Enhanced Sampling Techniques for Efficient and Accurate Calculation of Absolute Binding Free Energies.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Calculating absolute binding free energies is challenging and important. In this paper, we test some recently developed metadynamics-based methods and develop a new combination with a Hamiltonian replica-exchange approach. The methods were tested on ...

Machine Learning Driven Analysis of Large Scale Simulations Reveals Conformational Characteristics of Ubiquitin Chains.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Understanding the conformational characteristics of protein complexes in solution is crucial for a deeper insight in their biological function. Molecular dynamics simulations performed on high performance computing plants and with modern simulation t...

Characterizing Protein-Ligand Binding Using Atomistic Simulation and Machine Learning: Application to Drug Resistance in HIV-1 Protease.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Over the past several decades, atomistic simulations of biomolecules, whether carried out using molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo techniques, have provided detailed insights into their function. Comparing the results of such simulations for a few clo...

Finding Reactive Configurations: A Machine Learning Approach for Estimating Energy Barriers Applied to Sirtuin 5.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Sirtuin 5 is a class III histone deacetylase that, unlike its classification, mainly catalyzes desuccinylation and demanoylation reactions. It is an interesting drug target that we use here to test new ideas for calculating reaction pathways of large...

Unsupervised Machine Learning for Analysis of Phase Separation in Ternary Lipid Mixture.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Phase separation in mixed lipid systems has been extensively studied both experimentally and theoretically because of its biological importance. A detailed description of such complex systems undoubtedly requires novel mathematical frameworks that ar...

PhysNet: A Neural Network for Predicting Energies, Forces, Dipole Moments, and Partial Charges.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
In recent years, machine learning (ML) methods have become increasingly popular in computational chemistry. After being trained on appropriate ab initio reference data, these methods allow for accurately predicting the properties of chemical systems,...

Toward Building Protein Force Fields by Residue-Based Systematic Molecular Fragmentation and Neural Network.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Accurate force fields are crucial for molecular dynamics investigation of complex biological systems. Building accurate protein force fields from quantum mechanical (QM) calculations is challenging due to the complexity of proteins and high computati...

Toward Achieving Efficient and Accurate Ligand-Protein Unbinding with Deep Learning and Molecular Dynamics through RAVE.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
In this work, we demonstrate how to leverage our recent iterative deep learning-all atom molecular dynamics (MD) technique "Reweighted autoencoded variational Bayes for enhanced sampling (RAVE)" (Ribeiro, Bravo, Wang, Tiwary, J. Chem. Phys. 2018, 149...

TopScore: Using Deep Neural Networks and Large Diverse Data Sets for Accurate Protein Model Quality Assessment.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
The value of protein models obtained with automated protein structure prediction depends primarily on their accuracy. Protein model quality assessment is thus critical to select the model that can best answer biologically relevant questions from an e...
