  • Large-Scale Quantum-Mechanical Enzymology

    by Greg Lever ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This work establishes linear-scaling density-functional theory (DFT) as a powerful tool for understanding enzyme catalysis, one that can complement quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) and molecular dynamics simulations. The thesis reviews benchmark studies demonstrating techniques capable of simulating entire enzymes at the ab initio quantum-mechanical level of accuracy. DFT has ... Read more
