Abstract
Biomolecules contain various heterogeneities in their structures and local chemical properties, and their functions emerge through the dynamics encoded by these heterogeneities. Molecular dynamics model-based studies will greatly contribute to the elucidation of such chemical/mechanical structure-dynamics-function relationships and the mechanisms that generate them. Coarse-grained molecular dynamics models with appropriately designed nonuniform local interactions play an important role in considering the various phenomena caused by large molecular complexes consisting of various proteins and DNA such as nuclear chromosomes. Therefore, in this chapter, we will introduce a method for constructing a coarse-grained molecular dynamics model that simulates the global behavior of each chromosome in the nucleus of a mammalian cell containing many giant chromosomes.
