Enhanced Grand Canonical Sampling of Occluded Water Sites Using Nonequilibrium Candidate Monte Carlo

Oliver J. Melling et al.

Summary: Water molecules are crucial in biomolecular systems, especially at protein-ligand interfaces. However, simulating such systems is challenging due to slow water exchange between protein and solvent. To overcome this, the authors combine grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) with nonequilibrium candidate Monte Carlo (NCMC) to develop grand canonical nonequilibrium candidate Monte Carlo (GCNCMC). This approach improves water sampling efficiency and enables the exploration of new ligand-binding geometries mediated by water.

Sieving RNA 3D Structures with SHAPE and Evaluating Mechanisms Driving Sequence-Dependent Reactivity Bias

Travis Hurst et al.

Summary: Selective 2'-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) chemical probing provides not only local RNA flexibility information at single-nucleotide resolution, but also robust tertiary structure (3D) information. A new model is proposed in this study, which achieves a higher correlation between SHAPE data and native RNA 3D structures, improving the ability to discern between SHAPE-compatible and -incompatible structures. Through identifying sequence-dependent bias in SHAPE experiments, a mechanism driving this bias is proposed, with evidence showing the stability of the unreacted SHAPE reagent largely explains the SHAPE sequence bias.

Progress toward SHAPE Constrained Computational Prediction of Tertiary Interactions in RNA Structure

Gregoire De Bisschop et al.

Summary: Modeling RNA structures accurately is increasingly important as more sequencing data and novel genetic regulations are discovered. While progress has been made in modeling RNA structures from chemical probing experiments, accurately predicting large RNA structures remains challenging due to the flexibility and energetically similar structures of RNA. However, valuable information on intricate interactions can be deduced from probing with different reagents and under different conditions, such as in the presence or absence of Mg2+.

Electrochemistry, ion adsorption and dynamics in the double layer: a study of NaCl(aq) on graphite

Aaron R. Finney et al.

Summary: This study investigated the properties of the graphite-NaCl(aq) interface through simulations, revealing the formation of different charge density layers in the double layer at different concentrations. By comparing measurements from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy with experimental results, it emphasized the dominant contribution of the solution side to the overall capacitance and discussed the impact of ion crowding at high concentrations on reactive events in the double layer.
