Assess the stability and structural fidelity of molecular dynamics simulations of solvated biomolecules using the Particle Mesh Ewald method for long-range electrostatics.
Implemented the Particle Mesh Ewald (PME) algorithm to calculate long-range electrostatic interactions in condensed-phase biomolecular simulations.
Performed molecular dynamics simulations on solvated DNA, RNA, and protein systems under periodic boundary conditions.
Particle Mesh Ewald electrostatics produced sustained, stable molecular dynamics trajectories for DNA, RNA, and protein models.
Treatment of full electrostatic interactions prevented structural distortions commonly observed when using conventional cutoff approximations.
