摘要
Computer simulations are rapidly becoming a standard tool to study the structure and dynamics of lipids and membrane proteins. Increasing computer capacity allows unbiased simulations of lipid and membrane-active peptides. With the increasing number of highresolution structures of membrane proteins, which also enables homology modelling of more structures, a wide range of membrane proteins can now be simulated over time spans that capture essential biological processes. Longer time scales are accessible by special computational methods. We review recent progress in simulations of membrane proteins. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
