Lateral-Pressure Profiles in Cholesterol-DPPC Bilayers
Michael Patra
By means of atomistic molecular dynamics simulations, we study cholesterol-DPPC (dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine) bilayers of different composition, from pure DPPC bilayers to a 1:…
Under the influence of alcohol: The effect of ethanol and methanol on lipid bilayers
Michael Patra, Emppu Salonen, Emma Terama +4
Extensive microscopic molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to study the effects of short-chain alcohols, methanol and ethanol, on two different fully hydrated lipid b…
Structural Effects of Small Molecules on Phospholipid Bilayers Investigated by Molecular Simulations
Bryan W. Lee, Roland Faller, Amadeu K. Sum +3
We summarize and compare recent Molecular Dynamics simulations on the interactions of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) bilayers in the liquid crystalline phase with a number o…
Lipid bilayers driven to a wrong lane in molecular dynamics simulations by truncation of long-range electrostatic interactions
Michael Patra, Mikko Karttunen, Marja T. Hyvonen +2
This paper has been withdrawn.
Systematic comparison of force fields for microscopic simulations of NaCl in aqueous solutions: Diffusion, free energy of hydration and structural properties
Michael Patra, Mikko Karttunen
In this paper we compare different force fields that are widely used (Gromacs, Charmm-22/x-Plor, Charmm-27, Amber-1999, OPLS-AA) in biophysical simulations containing aqueous NaCl.…
Frequency dependence of the photonic noise spectrum in an absorbing or amplifying diffusive medium
E. G. Mishchenko, M. Patra, C. W. J. Beenakker
A theory is presented for the frequency dependence of the power spectrum of photon current fluctuations originating from a disordered medium. Both the cases of an absorbing medium…
