Due to recent advancements in the development of numerical
algorithms and computational hardware, computer simulations of
biological membranes, often requiring use of substantial
computational resources, are now reaching a mature stage. Since
molecular processes in membranes occur on a multitude of spatial
and time scales, molecular simulations of membranes can also serve
as a testing ground for use of multi-scale simulation techniques.
This book addresses some of the important issues related to
understanding properties and behavior of model biological membranes
and it Shows how simulations improve our understanding of
biological membranes and makes connections with experimental
results. Presents a careful discussion of the force fields used in
the membrane simulations including detailed all-atom fields and
coarse-grained fields. Presents a continuum description of
membranes. Discusses a variety of issues such as influence of
membrane surfaces on properties of water, interaction between
membranes across water, nanoparticle permeation across the
membrane, action of anesthetics and creation of inhomogeneous
regions in membranes. Discusses important methodological issues
when using simulations to examine phenomena such as pore creation
and permeation across membranes. Discusses progress recently
achieved in modeling bacterial membranes. It will be a valuable
resource for graduate students, researchers and instructors in
biochemistry, biophysics, pharmacology, physiology, and
computational biology.
