Improving the global dimensions of intrinsically disordered proteins in Martini 3
2021
Coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations are a useful tool to determine conformational ensembles of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs). Here, we show that the coarse-grained force field Martini 3 underestimates the global dimensions of IDPs when compared with small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data. Increasing the strength of protein-water interactions favors more expanded conformations, improving agreement with SAXS data and alleviating problems with overestimated IDP-IDP interactions.
