Molecular simulations have been used to study the structural and dynamic properties of phospholipid bilayers, as well as the interactions with molecules such as proteins and drugs. However, simulating large systems containing multiple phospholipids and other molecules can be computationally expensive. Coarse-grained (CG) simulations are a promising approach to reduce the complexity of molecular descriptions and speed up simulations. In this project, we will use a CG model to simulate a DMPC phospholipid bilayer and investigate its properties.Objectives The objective of this project is to use CG simulations to study the structural and dynamic properties of a DMPC phospholipid bilayer. Specifically, we aim to:1. Build a CG model of a DMPC bilayer using the MARTINI force field.2. Perform equilibrium simulations to study the bilayer properties, including lipid ordering, thickness, and lateral diffusion.3. Investigate the effects of temperature and membrane composition on the bilayer properties.4. Validate the CG model by comparing the results with experimental data and all-atom simulations.Methods We will use the GROMACS simulation package to perform the CG simulations. The MARTINI force field will be used to represent the DMPC phospholipids, which employs four-to-one mapping between particles in the coarse-grained description and atoms in the all-atom description. We will use the standard protocol for building MARTINI lipid bilayers, including solvation, equilibration and production runs. The simulations will be performed under different conditions, inc...
