Abstract

An extremely scalable computational strategy is described for calculations of the potential of mean force (PMF) in multidimensions on massively distributed supercomputers. The approach involves coupling thousands of umbrella sampling (US) simulation windows distributed to cover the space of order parameters with a Hamiltonian molecular dynamics replica-exchange (H-REMD) algorithm to enhance the sampling of each simulation. In the present application, US/H-REMD is carried out in a two-dimensional (2D) space and exchanges are attempted alternatively along the two axes corresponding to the two order parameters. The US/H-REMD strategy is implemented on the basis of parallel/parallel multiple copy protocol at the MPI level, and therefore can fully exploit computing power of large-scale supercomputers. Here the novel technique is illustrated using the leadership supercomputer IBM Blue Gene/P with an application to a typical biomolecular calculation of general interest, namely the binding of calcium ions to the small protein Calbindin D9k. The free energy landscape associated with two order parameters, the distance between the ion and its binding pocket and the root-mean-square deviation (rmsd) of the binding pocket relative the crystal structure, was calculated using the US/H-REMD method. The results are then used to estimate the absolute binding free energy of calcium ion to Calbindin D9k. The tests demonstrate that the 2D US/H-REMD scheme greatly accelerates the configurational sampling of the binding pocket, thereby improving the convergence of the potential of mean force calculation.

摘要

本文描述了一种极具扩展性的计算策略,用于在大规模分布式超级计算机上进行多维平均力势(PMF)的计算。该方法涉及将数千个伞形采样(US)模拟窗口分布在序参量空间上,并结合哈密顿分子动力学副本交换(H-REMD)算法,以增强每个模拟的采样效果。在本应用中,US/H-REMD在二维(2D)空间中进行,并且沿着与两个序参量对应的两个轴交替尝试交换。US/H-REMD策略是基于MPI级别的并行/并行多副本协议实现的,因此可以充分利用大规模超级计算机的计算能力。在此,使用领导级超级计算机IBM Blue Gene/P对一种典型的具有普遍意义的生物分子计算(即钙离子与小蛋白钙结合蛋白D9k的结合)进行了说明,展示了这种新技术。使用US/H-REMD方法计算了与两个序参量相关的自由能景观,即离子与其结合口袋之间的距离以及结合口袋相对于晶体结构的均方根偏差(rmsd)。然后将结果用于估计钙离子与钙结合蛋白D9k的绝对结合自由能。测试表明,二维US/H-REMD方案极大地加速了结合口袋的构型采样,从而提高了平均力势计算的收敛性。
