• Abstract summary: We leverage connections between score-based generative models, force fields and molecular dynamics to learn a CG force field without requiring any force inputs during training. While having a vastly simplified training setup compared to previous work, we demonstrate that our approach leads to improved performance across several small- to medium-sized protein simulations.

• Abstract: Coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics enables the study of biological processes at temporal and spatial scales that would be intractable at an atomistic resolution. However, accurately learning a CG force field remains a challenge. In this work, we leverage connections between score-based generative models, force fields and molecular dynamics to learn a CG force field without requiring any force inputs during training. Specifically, we train a diffusion generative model on protein structures from molecular dynamics simulations, and we show that its score function approximates a force field that can directly be used to simulate CG molecular dynamics. While having a vastly simplified training setup compared to previous work, we demonstrate that our approach leads to improved performance across several small- to medium-sized protein simulations, reproducing the CG equilibrium distribution, and preserving dynamics of all-atom simulations such as protein folding events.

  coarse-grained (CG) model with similar prediction performance has been a long-standing challenge. We develop a bottom-up CG force field with chemical transferability, which can be used for extrapolative molecular dynamics on new sequences. We demonstrate that the model successfully predicts folded structures, intermediates, metastable folded and unfolded basins, and the fluctuations of intrinsically disordered proteins.

• Statistically Optimal Force Aggregation for Coarse-Graining Molecular Dynamics [55.41644538483948]
  coarse-grained (CG) models have the potential to simulate large molecular complexes beyond what is possible with atomistic molecular dynamics. A widely used methodology for learning CG force-fields maps forces from all-atom molecular dynamics to the CG representation and matches them with a CG force-field on average. We show that there is flexibility in how to map all-atom forces to the CG representation, and that the most commonly used mapping methods are statistically inefficient and potentially even incorrect in the presence of constraints in the all-atom simulation.
