The Martini model, a coarse-grained force field initially developed with biomolecular simulations in mind, has found an increasing number of applications in the field of soft materials science. The model's underlying building block principle does not pose restrictions on its application beyond biomolecular systems. Here, the main applications to date of the Martini model in materials science are highlighted, and a perspective for the future developments in this field is given, particularly in light of recent developments such as the new version of the model, Martini 3.read more

Nonconverged Constraints Cause Artificial Temperature Gradients in Lipid Bilayer Simulations
Sebastian Thallmair,Sebastian Thallmair,Matti Javanainen,Balázs Fábián,Hector Martinez-Seara,Siewert J. Marrink +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that a significant temperature difference between molecule types can artificially arise in CG MD simulations with the standard Martini simulation parameters in GROMACS, and demonstrate that the underlying reason for this behavior is the presence of highly constrained moieties, such as cholesterol.

Understanding selective molecular recognition in integrated carbon nanotube–polymer sensors by simulating physical analyte binding on carbon nanotube–polymer scaffolds
TL;DR: The results indicate great success of the physical adsorption-based model in explaining the ranking in sensor selectivities, and the combined framework presented here can be used to screen and select polymers that can potentially be used for creating synthetic molecular recognition motifs.

TL;DR: Experiments show that this high doping level is attainable when the PEDOT structure is weakly crystalline with (relatively) large crystallite domains, and is demonstrated to be plausible by molecular dynamics simulations and density functional theory calculations.

Adsorption of plasma proteins onto PEGylated single-walled carbon nanotubes: The effects of protein shape, PEG size and grafting density
TL;DR: These findings agree with experiments showing less adsorption of proteins on the SWCNT functionalized with larger and more PEGs, and support experimental suggestions regarding the dependence of protein adsor adaptation on protein shape and the mushroom-brush transition of PEG conformation.
