  • NPSA:

    This implicit solvent model for protein simulations (with Neutralized, Polarized ionizable side chains with a solvent-accessible Surface Area-dependent term) is described in:

  • RAMD:

    The Random Acceleration Molecular Dynamics (RAMD) method can be used to carried out molecular dynamics simulations with an additional randomly oriented force applied to the center of mass of one molecule in the system. It can be used for example to identify egress routes for a ligand from a buried protein binding site. RAMD and its applications are described in:
