David Case (Rutgers) at HWI: CANCELLED
Category: | Seminar |
---|---|
Description: |
THIS TALK HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO HAZARDOUS WEATHER AND TRAVEL CONDITIONS. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF RESCHEDULING. Dr. David Case is a distinguished professor at Rutgers University. His research consists of the theoretical chemistry of biomolecules. Particular areas of interest include molecular dynamics simulations of proteins and nucleic acids; electronic structure calculations of transition-metal complexes that model active sites in metalloenzymes; development and application of methods for NMR structure determination; ligand-protein and ligand-nucleic acid docking and computational drug design. Dr. Case will be in Buffalo on March 22nd to give a talk based on his research. Details below. Date & Time: March 22nd, 2018 at 3PM EST Location: Hauptman Woodward Institute, 700 Ellicott Street, Buffalo, NY 14203 Room: Flickinger Lecture Hall 1F
What can we learn from MD simulations of biomolecular crystals?Case, David A. Dept. of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854 USA The adaption of graphical processing units (GPUs) to biomolecular simulations has made microsecond-scale simulations of biomolecular crystals available on a nearly-routine basis [1-5]. Typically, a super-cell consisting of several crystallographic unit cells becomes the periodically-repeating unit in the simulation; in this talk, I will consider super-cells with up to 125 unit cells. Here are some ways this data might be used:
