Coarse-Graining Reshapes Knot Dynamics in Polymers and Proteins
Coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations offer an efficient route to explore long-time-scale dynamics of knots in proteins and polymers. Despite extensive studies of knots using both atomistic (AA-) and CG-MD simulations, systematic comparisons of how coarse-graining alters knot relaxation mechanisms, in...
