AbstractA recent molecular dynamics investigation into the stability of hemoglobin concluded that the unliganded protein is only stable in the T state when a solvent box is used in the simulations that is ten times larger than what is usually employed. Here, we express three main concerns about that study. In addition, we show that with an order of magnitude more statistics, the reported box size dependence is not reproducible. Overall, no significant effects on the kinetics or thermodynamics of conformational transitions were observed.

A recent molecular dynamics investigation into the stability of hemoglobin concluded that the unliganded protein is only stable in the T state when a solvent box is used in the simulations that is ten times larger than what is usually employed (El Hage et al., 2018). Here, we express three main concerns about that study. In addition, we find that with an order of magnitude more statistics, the reported box size dependence is not reproducible. Overall, no significant effects on the kinetics or thermodynamics of conformational transitions were observed.

The dielectric relaxation spectrum of water can be quantitatively reproduced by ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. Its decomposition into auto- and crosscorrelation terms suggests that fits of experimental spectra may require revision.

In this paper we have extended the equation of state (EoS) in terms of particle size for Ne nanoclusters using an effective two-body Hartree–Fock dispersion (HFD)-like potential by molecular dynamics simulations.
