Capturing chemical reactions inside biomolecular condensates with reactive Martini simulations

C. Brasnett, A. Kiani, et al.

This groundbreaking research conducted by Christopher Brasnett, Armin Kiani, Selim Sami, Sijbren Otto, and Siewert J. Marrink explores the intriguing role of biomolecular condensates as reaction hubs. Using advanced reactive molecular dynamics simulations, the study reveals that the formation of benzene-1,3-dithiol rings leads to larger macrocycles and increased reaction rates.
