Molecular Mechanics

  • Atom based: atoms are the basic particles; electron and nuclei information are averaged out
  • Classical: atoms interact with each other according to classical force field (or potential energy function)
  • Additive: the total energy (Hamiltonian) is a sum of all pair-wise interactions
  • Empirical: can be parameterized from ab initio calculations or experimental data

  • Long range: U ~ R-n
    • Electrostatic (permanent charges, dipoles and quadrupoles…) +/-
    • Induction: Permanent and induced -
    • Instantaneous induction: dispersion -
    • Resonance and magnetic +/-
  • Short range: U~ exp(-cR)
    • Exchange -
    • Repulsion +
    • Charge transfer -
    • Penetration - (related to multipole expansion and separation of nuc and electrons)
    • Damping +

Most developments in the polarizable force fields for biomolecules relate to explicitly induced dipoles and somewhat less to fluctuating charge and Drude oscillator methods. New methods have begun to emerge, such as those that go beyond point charge models and describe charge densities via spatial functions.
