摘要：
In this paper we present a methodology to evaluate the binding free energy of a miRNA-mRNA complex through Molecular Dynamics-Thermodynamic Integration simulations. We applied our method on the C - elegans let-7 miRNA:lin-41 mRNA complex, known to be a validate miRNA:mRNA interaction, in order to evaluate the energetic stability of the structure. The methodology has been designed to face the various challenges of nucleic acid simulations and binding free energy computations and to allow an optimal trade-off between accuracy and computational cost.
