摘要
Yeh and Hummer's simplified estimation method has often been adopted to obtain diffusion coefficients for solute molecules using molecular dynamic simulation. However, the simplified formula is not necessarily valid when a small basic cell is used. Therefore, we conducted molecular dynamics simulations of aqueous protein solution to estimate the diffusion coefficient for the infinite dilution limit. We confirmed a deviation from the simplified formula in the simulation data and rationalized the discrepancy based on the unsimplified formula.
