Docking and molecular dynamics simulations of the ternary complex nisin2:lipid II (2016)
Journal Article
Mulholland, S., Turpin, E. R., Bonev, B. B., & Hirst, J. (2016). Docking and molecular dynamics simulations of the ternary complex nisin2:lipid II. Scientific Reports, 6(21185), https://doi.org/10.1038/srep21185

Lanthionine antibiotics are an important class of naturally-occurring antimicrobial peptides. The best-known, nisin, is a commercial food preservative. However, structural and mechanistic details on nisin/lipid II membrane complexes are currently lac...

New CHARMM force field parameters for dehydrated amino acid residues, the key to lantibiotic molecular dynamics simulations (2014)
Journal Article
Turpin, E. R., Mulholland, S., Teale, A. M., Bonev, B. B., & Hirst, J. D. (2014). New CHARMM force field parameters for dehydrated amino acid residues, the key to lantibiotic molecular dynamics simulations. RSC Advances, 4(89), 48621-48631. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4ra09897h

Lantibiotics are an important class of naturally occurring antimicrobial peptides containing unusual dehydrated amino acid residues. In order to enable molecular dynamics simulations of lantibiotics, we have developed empirical force field parameters...
