Experiment-directed simulation (EDS) is a technique to minimally bias molecular dynamics simulations to match experimentally observed results. The method improves accuracy but does not address the sampling problem of molecular dynamics simulations of large systems. This work combines EDS with both the parallel-tempering or parallel-tempering well-tempered ensemble replica-exchange methods to enhance sampling. These methods are demonstrated on the GYG tripeptide in explicit water. The collective variables biased by EDS are chemical shifts, where the set-points are determined by NMR experiments. The results show that it is possible to enhance sampling with either parallel-tempering and parallel-tempering well-tempered ensemble in the EDS method. This combination of methods provides a novel approach for both accurately and exhaustively simulating biological systems.
