The framework supports the CHARMM 19 and 28a2 force +fields and is able to process PDB, PSF, XYZ and DCD trajectory files. It is +designed for high flexibility, easy extendibility and maintenance, and high +performance demands, including parallelization. The technique of multiple +time-stepping is used to improve long-term efficiency. The use of fast +electrostatic force evaluation algorithms like Ewald, particle Mesh Ewald (PME), +and Multigrid (MG) summation further enhances performance. Longer time steps +are possible using MOLLY, Langevin Molly and Hybrid Monte Carlo, Nose-Hoover, +and Langevin integrators. In addition, ProtoMol has been designed to interact +with VMD, a visualization engine developed by the University of Illinois that is +used for displaying large biomolecular systems in three dimensions. ProtoMol is +freely distributed software, and the source code is available. + +WWW: http://protomol.sourceforge.net/ |
