Here we present the Common Workflow Language (CWL) project, which produces free and open standards for describing command-line tool based workflows. The CWL standards provide a common but reduced set of abstractions that are both used in practice and implemented in many popular workflow systems.
We present BioExcel Building Blocks Workflows, a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) of fering access to a collection of transversal pre-configured biomolecular simulation workflows assembled with the BioExcel Building Blocks library.
Here, through massive plain MD simulations, enhanced sampling calculations, free energy-based alchemical transformation and bioinformatics we show that SARS-CoV-2 likely evolved in Rhinolophus affinis bats by acquiring a surprisingly-high affinity for their ACE2 receptors.
We present a physics-based machine learning approach to predict transcription factor binding affinities in vitro from structural and mechanical DNA properties directly derived from atomistic molecular dynamics simulations.
Photoactivation of bacteriophytochrome involves a cis–trans photoisomerization of a biliverdin chromophore, but neither the precise sequence of events nor the direction of the isomerization is known. Here, we used nonadiabatic molecular dynamics simulations on the photosensory protein dimer to resolve the isomerization mechanism in atomic detail.
BioBB REST API extends and complements the BioBB library offering programmatic access to the collection of biomolecular simulation tools included in the BioExcel Building Blocks library. Molecular Dynamics setup, docking, structure modeling, free energy simulations, and flexibility analyses are examples of functionalities included in the endpoints collection. All functionalities are accessible through standard REST API calls, voiding the need for tool installation.
