Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Deformable Viral Capsomers
Most coarse-grained models of individual capsomers associated with viruses employ rigid building blocks that do not exhibit shape adaptation during self-assembly. We develop a coarse-grained general model of viral capsomers that incorporates their stretching and bending energies while retaining many...
