A deep-learning view of chemical space designed to facilitate drug discovery

Paul Maragakis, Hunter Nisonoff, Brian Cole +1

Drug discovery projects entail cycles of design, synthesis, and testing that yield a series of chemically related small molecules whose properties, such as binding affinity to a gi…

Bayesian estimates of free energies from nonequilibrium work data in the presence of instrument noise

Paul Maragakis, Felix Ritort, Carlos Bustamante +2

The Jarzynski equality and the fluctuation theorem relate equilibrium free energy differences to non-equilibrium measurements of the work. These relations extend to single-molecule…

Multiscale model of electronic behavior and localization in stretched dry DNA

Ryan Barnett, Paul Maragakis, Ari Turner +2

When the DNA double helix is subjected to external forces it can stretch elastically to elongations reaching 100% of its natural length. These distortions, imposed at the mesoscopi…

Optimal estimates of free energies from multi-state nonequilibrium work data

Paul Maragakis, Martin Spichty, Martin Karplus

We derive the optimal estimates of the free energies of an arbitrary number of thermodynamic states from nonequilibrium work measurements; the work data are collected from forward…

Electronic structure of overstretched DNA

Paul Maragakis, Ryan Lee Barnett, Efthimios Kaxiras +2

Minuscule molecular forces can transform DNA into a structure that is elongated by more than half its original length. We demonstrate that this pronounced conformational transition…

HARES: an efficient method for first-principles electronic structure calculations of complex systems

U. V. Waghmare, Hanchul Kim, I. J. Park +3

We discuss our new implementation of the Real-space Electronic Structure method for studying the atomic and electronic structure of infinite periodic as well as finite systems, bas…
