The elastic theory successfully models deformation profiles of the membrane around single proteins.

I: a rigorous bridge between atomistic and coarse-grained models. J Chem Phys 128 (2008) 244114. The overall theoretical framework for the multiscale coarse-graining (MS-CG) methodology is given. The formal link between atomistic and coarse-grained representations is derived using the consistency principle for the atomistic and coarse-grained distribution functions. The MS-CG methodology guarantees that the resulting MS-CG force field will be closest, in a variational sense, to the exact force field as found from the many body potential of mean force.

An extension to the MARTINI CG force field for proteins is presented. The model is validated by calculating the potential of mean force for each amino acid as it is removed from a dioleoylphosphatidylcholine bilayer. The model is computationally efficient and can represent CG peptide lipid interactions, along with the partitioning of amino acids and peptides in lipid bilayers.

A modified CG model for proteins and membranes is presented. The secondary structure of the protein employs harmonic bonds. An iterative process is used to parameterize the model to give good agreement with experimental measurements of oil/water partition free energies.

The general challenge of modeling membrane protein insertion and protein-bilayer interactions is discussed.

The role of CG models in examining this kind of phenomena is given, with an emphasis on the need for careful parameterization and correct physical behavior of the model.
