Martini compatible coarse-grained model of polyethylenimine for pulmonary gene delivery by Graham Lunt, Niloofar Hashemi, Subhamoy Mahajan, Tian Tang

“…In this work, CG models are developed for PEI and its lipid-functionalized form, within the Martini framework, to provide a platform for exploring structure-function relationships of PEI-based pulmonary delivery systems. Special attention is focused on parameterizing the non-bonded interactions associated with CG PEI, to ensure compatibility with Martini proteins, short interfering RNA, and phospholipids that are essential components in pulmonary gene delivery. …”
