Variational Methods for Biomolecular Modeling
Guo-Wei Wei, Y. C. Zhou
Structure, function and dynamics of many biomolecular systems can be characterized by the energetic variational principle and the corresponding systems of partial differential equa…
Curvature-driven molecular flows on membrane surfaces
Michael Mikucki, Y. C. Zhou
Morphological change of bilayer membrane in vivo is not a spontaneous procedure but modulated by various types of proteins in general. Most of these modulations are associated with…
Fast Algorithm for Simulating Lipid Vesicle Deformation I: Spherical Harmonic Approximation
Michael Mikucki, Y. C. Zhou
Lipid vesicles appear ubiquitously in biological systems. Understanding how the mechanical and intermolecular interations deform vesicle membrane is a fundamental question in bioph…
Electrostatic forces on charged surfaces of bilayer lipid membranes
Michael Mikucki, Y. C. Zhou
Simulating protein-membrane interactions is an important and dynamic area of research. A proper definition of electrostatic forces on membrane surfaces is necessary for developing…
Electrodiffusion of Lipids on Membrane Surfaces
Y. C. Zhou
Random lateral translocation of lipids and proteins is a universal process on membrane surfaces. Local aggregation or organization of lipids and proteins can be induced when this l…
A Nonlinear Elasticity Model of Macromolecular Conformational Change Induced by Electrostatic Forces
Yongcheng Zhou, Michael Holst, James Andrew McCammon
In this paper we propose a nonlinear elasticity model of macromolecular conformational change (deformation) induced by electrostatic forces generated by an implicit solvation model…
