CHARMM-GUI PDB Manipulator: Various PDB Structural Modifications for Biomolecular Modeling and Simulation.

ABSTRACT: Molecular modeling and simulation play important roles in biomedical research as they provide molecular-level insight into the underlying mechanisms of biological functions that are difficult to elucidate only with experiments. CHARMM-GUI (https://charmm-gui.org) is a web-based cyberinfrastructure that is widely used to generate various molecular simulation system and input files and thus facilitates and standardizes the usage of common and advanced simulation techniques. In particular, PDB Manipulator provides various chemical modification options as the starting point for most input generation modules in CHARMM-GUI. Here, we discuss recent additions to PDB Manipulator, such as non-standard amino acids/RNA substitutions, ubiquitylation and SUMOylation, Lys/Arg post-translational modificat
