Biomolecular simulations [electronic resource] : methods and protocols / edited by Luca Monticelli, Emppu Salonen.

Over the past 40 years the field of molecular simulations has evolved from picosecond studies of isolated macromolecules in vacuum to studies of complex, chemically heterogeneous biological systems consisting of millions of atoms, with the simulation time scales spanning up to milliseconds. In Biomo...
