DMPC磷脂分子的粗粒化模拟的开题报告 Introduction Phospholipidsareessentialcomponentsofcellmembranesandhavediversefunctionsincellularprocesses.Molecularsimulationshavebeenusedtostudythestructuralanddynamicpropertiesofphospholipidbilayers,aswellastheinteractionswithmoleculessuchasproteinsanddrugs.However,simulatinglargesystemscontainingmultiplephospholipidsandothermoleculescanbecomputationallyexpensive.Coarse-grained(CG)simulationsareapromisingapproachtoreducethecomplexityofmoleculardescriptionsandspeedupsimulations.Inthisproject,wewilluseaCGmodeltosimulateaDMPCphospholipidbilayerandinvestigateitsproperties. Objectives TheobjectiveofthisprojectistouseCGsimulationstostudythestructuralanddynamicpropertiesofaDMPCphospholipidbilayer.Specifically,weaimto: 1.BuildaCGmodelofaDMPCbilayerusingtheMARTINIforcefield. 2.Performequilibriumsimulationstostudythebilayerproperties,includinglipidordering,thickness,andlateraldiffusion. 3.Investigatetheeffectsoftemperatureandmembranecompositiononthebilayerproperties. 4.ValidatetheCGmodelbycomparingtheresultswithexperimentaldataandall-atomsimulations.
