Replication Data for "Predicting the Dynamic Viscosity of High-Concentration Protein Solutions with a Chemically Specific Coarse-Grained Model"

Listed in TUDOdata

The viscosity of high-concentration protein solutions is a critical parameter in bio- pharmaceutical formulation development.

Description

Conventionally, the viscosity is measured and optimized in labor-intensive experimental workflows that require a lot of material. While predicting the viscosity with atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations is feasible, they are computationally prohibitively expensive due to the large system sizes and the long simulation times involved.

Coarse-grained MD (CG-MD) simulations sig- nificantly reduce computational demands, but evaluating their accuracy and predictive power requires rigorous validation. Here, we assess the capability of the Martini 3 CG force field to predict the viscosity of high-concentration antibody solutions. We show that a refined Martini 3 force field, with optimized protein–protein interactions, can predict the elevated viscosities observed in concentrated solutions of F(ab’)2 fragments of the therapeutic monoclonal antibody (mAb) omalizumab.

Furthermore, we show that our previously developed Martini 3-exc model for arginine excipients successfully captures the trend of lowering viscosity, as observed in our rheology experiments. These findings open the way to physics-based computational prediction of the properties of dense biopharmaceutical solutions via large-scale MD simulations. This dataset contains files to reproduce the data presented in the scientific letter "Predicting the Dynamic Viscosity of High-Concentration Protein Solutions with a Chemically Specific Coarse-Grained Model" by Prass et al. The files are ordered in two directories: one with the NaCl simulations (OLIVES and GoMartini), and one with the files for the simulations with ArgCl.

In both directories, the force field files for Martini 3 and Martini 3-exc (NaCl and ArgCl, respectively) with 12% rescaling of the protein-protein interactions are given. Furthermore, each directory contains one .gro and .top file each of all repeast for the different concentrations from 150mgml to 250mgml, as well as the required .itp file of the omalizumab F(ab')2 fragments.
