High-resolution cryo-EM and molecular dynamics simulations reveal structural flexibility in human vault particles, indicating their dynamic behavior.
This repository contains the raw data and simulation files supporting the molecular dynamics (MD) simulations presented in the paper: "Structural flexibility of the human vault particle revealed by high-resolution cryo-EM and molecular dynamics simulations." The dataset is organized into two main components: Figures 5 & 6 Reproduction Package (zip file):Includes all structures and VMD (Visual Molecular Dynamics) script files necessary to reproduce Figures 5 and 6 from the manuscript. Simulation Input and Output Data (zip file): Initial structures: All-atom and coarse-grained (CG) starting models for both the primed and committed states of the full vault and half-vault particles in PDB format. Simulation setup files: .mdp configuration files used for production runs in both all-atom and coarse-grained simulations. Trajectories: Production trajectories for each replicate, sampled every 1 ns for all-atom simulations and every 1.5 ns for coarse-grained simulations provided in XTC format.
