  • We present a coarse-grained C$α$-based protein model that can be used to simulate structured, intrinsically disordered and partially disordered proteins. We use a Go-like potential for the structured parts and two different variants of a transferable potential for the disordered parts. The first variant uses dynamic structure-based (DSB) contacts that form and disappear quasi-adiabatically during the simulation. By using specific structural criteria we distinguish sidechain-sidechain, sidechain-backbone and backbone-backbone contacts. The second variant is a non-radial multi-body pseudo-improper-dihedral (PID) potential that does not include time-dependent terms but requires more computational resources. Our model can simulate in reasonable time thousands of residues on millisecond time scales.
