Kirkwood–Buff-derived force field for peptides and proteins: philosophy and development of KBFF20

EA Ploetz, S Karunaweera, N Bentenitis… - Journal of Chemical …, 2021 - ACS Publications
A new classical nonpolarizable force field, KBFF20, for the simulation of peptides and
proteins is presented. The force field relies heavily on the use of Kirkwood–Buff theory to …

Osmotic pressure simulations of amino acids and peptides highlight potential routes to protein force field parameterization

MS Miller, WK Lay, AH Elcock - The Journal of Physical Chemistry …, 2016 - ACS Publications
