II.A. Simulating Dyes Attached to Proteins Several studies have utilized MD simulations to explore various aspects of dye dynamics in solution and protein complexes. Some challenges specific to simulating accurate dye behavior have been addressed in these studies. For example, the commonly assumed isotropic dye orientation distribution, where both fluorophores’ transition dipoles are assumed to independently sample all possible orientations equally, is often difficult to verify experimentally.

I. Introduction Click to copy section linkSection link copied! Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, often guided and/or validated by experimental techniques, have proven to be valuable in advancing our understanding of the structural and chemo-mechanical properties of various biomolecules. (1−5) These simulations have a broad range of applications and are able to capture many important biomolecular processes such as ligand binding, conformational state changes, protein folding, and more.

On September 16, the European Parliament passed a resolution calling for the boycott of Expo Dubai 2020. It also called for European companies dealing with the Expo to follow suite. This is the second major blow to afflict Expo Dubai 2020 after the original dates were changed due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.
