QM/MM Methods for Biomolecular Systems

TL;DR: To model large biomolecules the logical approach is to combine the two techniques and to use a QM method for the chemically active region and an MM treatment for the surroundings, enabling the modeling of reactive biomolecular systems at a reasonable computational effort while providing the necessary accuracy.

The role of quantum mechanics in structure-based drug design.

TL;DR: Objectively validating the improved applicability and performance of QM over classical-based models in DD will be the focus of research in the coming years along with research on the conformational sampling problem as it relates to protein-ligand complexes.

Application of Badger's Rule to Heme and Non-Heme Iron−Oxygen Bonds: An Examination of Ferryl Protonation States

TL;DR: It is concluded that the ferryl forms of myoglobin, horseradish peroxidase, and cytochrome c peroxIDase are authentic iron(IV)oxos with Fe-O bonds on the order of 1.66 A and pKa's < 4.

Density-functional exchange-energy approximation with correct asymptotic behavior.

TL;DR: This work reports a gradient-corrected exchange-energy functional, containing only one parameter, that fits the exact Hartree-Fock exchange energies of a wide variety of atomic systems with remarkable accuracy, surpassing the performance of previous functionals containing two parameters or more.

Fully optimized contracted Gaussian basis sets for atoms Li to Kr

TL;DR: In this article, various contracted Gaussian basis sets for atoms up to Kr are presented which have been determined by optimizing atomic self-consistent field ground state energies with respect to all basis set parameters, i.e., orbital exponents and contraction coefficients.
