Project Description
The coronavirus E protein is an ion channel in the membrane envelope that is important for maintaining viral shape as well as conducting ions. We aim to run coarse-grained and atomistic molecular dynamics simulation of E proteins, in order to test two distinct hypotheses for how the protein shapes the membrane. The student would both run simulations using open-source, highly developed existing packages, and write their own analysis and signal processing code.Additional Resources
