A differentiable photon-by-photon likelihood for continuous free-energy landscapes and diffusion coefficients from single-molecule FRET

Lars Dingeldein, Roberto Covino

Single-molecule FRET probes the conformational dynamics of biomolecules by measuring the distance between two dyes. The experiment produces a stream of coloured photons, which is o…

Committors and Reaction Rates from Trial Functions That Violate the Boundary Conditions

Magnus Petersen, Simon Lichtinger, Roberto Covino

The committor is the optimal reaction coordinate for a rare transition: it pinpoints the transition state and fixes the rate, and it governs events from protein folding to crystal…

Accelerated descriptor-free path sampling for protein-ligand binding kinetics

Simon M. Lichtinger, Roberto Covino

The kinetics of protein-ligand binding systems are increasingly recognized as a key determinant of drug efficacy, yet remain far harder to compute than binding affinities. Existing…

Protein Dynamics Beyond Structure Prediction

Juliette Griffié, Sviatlana Shashkova, Antonio Ciarlo +41

The ability to predict protein three-dimensional structures from amino acid sequences is a landmark achievement in molecular biology, where recent deep learning approaches such as…

A Machine-Learned Symbolic Committor for a Chemical Reaction: Retinal Isomerization

Kai Töpfer, Gianmarco Lazzeri, Vittoria Ossanna +4

The thermal cis-trans isomerization around the C=C double bond of retinal is a prototypical high-barrier reaction whose mechanism hinges on subtle out-of-plane bendin…
