Changing Your Martini Can Still Give You a Hangover.

ABSTRACT: The Martini 3.0 coarse-grained force field, which was parametrized to better capture transferability in top-down coarse-grained models, is analyzed to assess its accuracy in representing thermodynamic and structural properties with respect to the underlying atomistic representation of the system. These results are compared to those obtained following the principles of statistical mechanics that start from the same underlying atomistic system. To this end, the potentials of mean force for lateral association in Martini 3.0 binary lipid bilayers are decomposed into their entropic and enthalpic components and compared to those of corresponding atomistic bilayers that have been projected onto equivalent coarse-grained mappings but evolved under the fully atomistic forces. This is accomplished
