Abstract

Complex and coordinated dynamics are closely connected with protein functions, including the binding of antibodies to antigens. Knowledge of such dynamics could improve the design of antibodies. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations provide a "computational microscope" that can resolve atomic motions and inform antibody design efforts.

Keywords: Antibodies; Molecular dynamics simulation; Protein design; Protein dynamics.
