Features

  • Only available for paid users.
  • Simulates a broad range of molecular systems.
  • Returns many metrics including equilibration steps, RMSD, Gyration Radius and more.
  • Allows you to specify custom durations for your molecular dynamics simulation in nanoseconds.
  • Simulation execution duration may range from hours to overnight. The time to job completion scales with the number of atoms and if the simulation is a protein-ligand interaction.

Statistics

Neurosnap periodically calculates runtime statistics based on job execution data. These estimates provide a general guideline for how long your job may take, but actual runtimes can vary significantly depending on factors like input size or settings used.

Job Note

Provide a name or description for your job to help you organize and track its results. This input is solely for organizational purposes and does not impact the outcome of the job.

Configuration & Options

Service Inputs

Upload a PDB file for the Molecular Dynamics experiment. Ligands and small molecules not in the force field will be auto-parameterized, though metal-organic and exotic compounds may fail. To set a specific pH, use our PDB2PQR service to adjust protonation states before submission.

Check this option if your input structure is missing atoms. We will attempt to repair it using PDBFixer by adding missing atoms and residues. This process may fail.

Advanced Settings

The duration of the simulation in nano seconds. WARNING: Increasing this value will result in drastically longer simulations which can consume large quantities of credits.

Select the forcefield to define the interaction potentials and parameters for the molecular dynamics simulation. Each option represents a specific parameter set optimized for various biomolecules and simulation types. We recommend AMBER99SB-ILDN or CHARMM27 for most cases.

The following options are the available box shapes for the solvent-system during the simulation.

Ions Instructions

Specify the ion pairs, their concentrations, and charges to be included in the solvent for your simulation. Each row should define one ion pair, with values separated by colons (:). The format is:

POSITIVE_ION_NAME : NEGATIVE_ION_NAME : CONCENTRATION (mol/L) : POSITIVE_ION_CHARGE : NEGATIVE_ION_CHARGE
  • POSITIVE_ION_NAME → The cation to be used (e.g., Na, K, Mg).
  • NEGATIVE_ION_NAME → The anion to be used (e.g., Cl, Br, I).
  • CONCENTRATION → The final ion concentration in mol/L (e.g., 0.15).
  • POSITIVE_ION_CHARGE → Charge of the positive ion (e.g., 1 for Na⁺, 2 for Mg²⁺).
  • NEGATIVE_ION_CHARGE → Charge of the negative ion (e.g., -1 for Cl⁻, -2 for SO₄²⁻).


🔹 Example Input:

Na:Cl:0.15:1:-1
K:Br:0.23:1:-1
Mg:Cl:0.06:2:-1


⚠️ Notes:

  • Ensure charge values correctly match ion oxidation states.
  • Use a new line for each ion pair.

See above instructions for information on how to use this input.
