title: POPC/Cholesterol @ 310K. 0, 10, 40, 50 and 60 mol-% cholesterol. Model by Maciejewski and Rog
author: Javanainen, Matti
description: Input parameter files and parts of the resulting trajectories for a POPC bilayer simulation with varying amounts of cholesterol. The systems contain 0, 10, 40, 50 or 60 mol-% cholesterol and a total of 128 lipids (POPC+cholesterol). The force field is an extension to the OPLS-based force field by the same authors [1]. All simulations are conducted by Waldemar Kulig and the simulations with 0, 10 and 40 mol-% cholesterol have earlier been discussed in [2]. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Files: md_cholXX.tpr – XX mol-% cholesterol; run input file for Gromacs versions 4.6 and above.  md_cholXX.xtc – The last 200 ns of a 400 ns long simulation (200 ns discarded from the beginning). XX mol-% cholesterol. Data saved every 100 ps.   UPDATE: 500 ns long trajectories of 0, 10, 40, and 50 mol% simulatios and the respective cpt files were uploaded. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– This data is used in the project "Matching lipid force fields with NMR data", see: http://nmrlipids.blogspot.fi and referred to in the blog as 'MacRog' [1] Maciejewski, A., Pasenkiewicz-Gierula, M., Cramariuc, O., Vattulainen, I., and Rog, T. Refined OPLS All-Atom Force Field for Saturated Phosphatidylcholine Bilayers at Full Hydration. The Journal of Physical Chemistry B 118, 4571–4581 (2014).
