Machine-Learning-Assisted Free Energy Simulation of Solution-Phase and Enzyme Reactions.

ABSTRACT: Despite recent advances in the development of machine learning potentials (MLPs) for biomolecular simulations, there has been limited effort on developing stable and accurate MLPs for enzymatic reactions. Here we report a protocol for performing machine-learning-assisted free energy simulation of solution-phase and enzyme reactions at the ab initio quantum-mechanical/molecular-mechanical (ai-QM/MM) level of accuracy. Within our protocol, the MLP is built to reproduce the ai-QM/MM energy and forces on both QM (reactive) and MM (solvent/enzyme) atoms. As an alternative strategy, a delta machine learning potential (ΔMLP) is trained to reproduce the differences between the ai-QM/MM and semiempirical (se) QM/MM energies and forces. To account for the effect of the co
