Figure 3
Coarse-grained biomolecular simulations. (a) A schematic of the water model in which four atomistic water molecules are lumped together in a single particle (indicated by the grey sphere). (b) Initial (left) and final (right) positions observed during the dimerization of fukutin. The protein backbones are shown in cyan, the S residues of the important TXXSS motif are shown in orange space-filling format, the phosphate groups of the lipids are shown in purple space-filling format, and the remainder of the lipid molecules and the waters have been omitted for clarity. |
