Abstract

We systematically parameterized a coarse-grained (CG) model for DNA that is compatible with the Martini force field. The model maps each nucleotide into six to seven CG beads and is parameterized following the Martini philosophy. The CG nonbonded interactions are based on partitioning of the nucleobases between polar and nonpolar solvents as well as base-base potential of mean force calculations. The bonded interactions are fit to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) atomistic simulations and an elastic network is used to retain double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and other specific DNA conformations. We present the implementation of the Martini DNA model and demonstrate the properties of individual bases, ssDNA as well as dsDNA, and DNA-protein complexes. The model opens up large-scale simulations of DNA interacting with a wide range of other (bio)molecules that are available within the Martini framework.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
