Characterization of cisplatin/membrane interactions by QM/MM energy decomposition analysis
Literature Information
Gustavo Cárdenas, Álvaro Pérez-Barcia, Marcos Mandado
We extend for the first time a quantum mechanical energy decomposition analysis scheme based on deformation electron densities to a hybrid electrostatic embedding quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics framework. The implemented approach is applied to characterize the interactions between cisplatin and a dioleyl-phosphatidylcholine membrane, which play a key role in the permeation mechanism of the drug inside the cells. The interaction energy decomposition into electrostatic, induction, dispersion and Pauli repulsion contributions is performed for ensembles of geometries to account for conformational sampling. It is evidenced that the electrostatic and repulsive components are predominant in both polar and non-polar regions of the bilayer.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
