Abstract

We present CGeNArate, a new model for molecular dynamics simulations of very long segments of B-DNA in the context of biotechnological or chromatin studies. The developed method uses a coarse-grained Hamiltonian with trajectories that are back-mapped to the atomistic resolution level with extreme accuracy by means of Machine Learning Approaches. The method is sequence-dependent and reproduces very well not only local, but also global physical properties of DNA. The efficiency of the method allows us to recover with a reduced computational effort high-quality atomic-resolution ensembles of segments containing many kilobases of DNA, entering into the gene range or even the entire DNA of certain cellular organelles.
