TL;DR: An approach to designing tight-binding ligands with a substantial reduction in false positives relative to compounds synthesized on the basis of other computational or medicinal chemistry approaches is reported, demonstrating the robustness and broad range of applicability of this approach, which can be used to drive decisions in lead optimization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Routine Access to Millisecond Time Scale Events with Accelerated Molecular Dynamics.
Levi C. T. Pierce,Romelia Salomon-Ferrer,César Augusto F. de Oliveira,J. Andrew McCammon,Ross C. Walker +4 more
TL;DR: This work critically assesses the ability of the all-atom enhanced sampling method accelerated molecular dynamics (aMD) to investigate conformational changes in proteins that typically occur on the millisecond time scale and combines aMD with the inherent power of graphics processor units (GPUs) and applies the implementation to the bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved Reweighting of Accelerated Molecular Dynamics Simulations for Free Energy Calculation.
Yinglong Miao,William Sinko,Levi C. T. Pierce,Denis Bucher,Ross C. Walker,J. Andrew McCammon +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the accuracy of different reweighting algorithms including the exponential average, Maclaurin series, and cumulant expansion on three model systems: alanine dipeptide, chignolin, and Trp-cage were systematically compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deep sequencing of 10,000 human genomes.
Amalio Telenti,Levi C. T. Pierce,William H. Biggs,Julia di Iulio,Emily H. M. Wong,Martin M. Fabani,Ewen F. Kirkness,Ahmed A. Moustafa,Naisha Shah,Chao Xie,Suzanne Brewerton,Nadeem Bulsara,Chad Garner,Gary Metzker,Efren Sandoval,Brad A. Perkins,Franz Josef Och,Yaron Turpaz,J. Craig Venter +18 more
TL;DR: This work reports on the sequencing of 10,545 human genomes at 30×–40× coverage with an emphasis on quality metrics and novel variant and sequence discovery and concludes that high-coverage genome sequencing provides accurate detail on human variation for discovery and clinical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Use of Accelerated Molecular Dynamics to Enhance Configurational Sampling in Ab Initio Simulations.
TL;DR: The results suggest that A-AIMD is a useful addition to existing methods for enhanced conformational and phase-space sampling in solution and does not require the user to define a set of collective variables that can capture all the low-energy minima on the potential energy surface.
