  • - take from force field
  • reoptimize for QM level
  • Coulomb
  • which charges?

Amaro Field ,T Chem Acc. 2003
33
Combined QM/MM
  • Tests
  • C-C bond lengths, vib. frequencies
  • C-C torsional barrier
  • H-bonding complexes
  • proton affinities, deprotonation
  • energies

34
Subtractive vs. additive QM/MM
  • parametrization of methods for all regions
    required
  • e.g. MM for Ligands
  • SE for metals
  • QM/QM/MM conceptionally simple and applicable

35
Local Orbital vs. plane wave approaches
  • PW implementations
  • (most implementations in LCAO)
  • periodic boundary conditions and large box!
    lots of empty space in unit cell
  • hybride functionals have better accuracy B3LYP,
    PBE0 etc.
  • no BSSE
  • parallelization (e.g. DNA with 1000 Atoms)

36
Problems
  • QM and MM accuracy
  • QM/MM coupling
  • model setup solvent, restraints
  • PES vs. FES importance of sampling
  • All these factors CAN introduce errors in similar
    magnitude

Implicit solvent Generalized Solvent Boundary
Potential (GSBP, B. Roux)
  • Drawback of conventional implicit solvation e.g.
    specific water molecules important
  • Compromise 2 layers, one explicit solvent layer
    before implicit solvation model.
  • inner region MD, geomopt
  • outer region fixed

GSBP

GSBP
Depends on inner coordinates!
Basis set expansion of inner density? calculate
reaction field for basis set
QM/MM DFTB implementation by Cui group (Madison)
52
Water structure in Aquaporin
Water structure only in agreement with full
solvent simulations when GSBP is used!
53
Problems with the PES CPR, NEB etc.
  • differences in protein
  • conformations

Zhang et al JPCB 107 (2003) 44459
54
Problems with the PES complex energy landscape
  • differences in protein conformations
  • (starting the reaction path calculation)
  • problems along the reaction pathway
  • flipping of water
    molecules
  • size of movable MM
    region
  • different H-bonding
    pattern
  • average over these effects
  • potential of mean force/free energy
