The document discusses energy minimization, which is the process of finding the lowest energy conformation of a molecule. It involves varying intramolecular degrees of freedom to determine the arrangement of atoms that minimizes steric energy. This corresponds to the stable state on the potential energy surface with minimum repulsion between atoms. Common techniques for energy minimization include Newton-Raphson, steepest descent, and conjugate gradient methods.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. The lowest energy conformation is the set of bond lengths
and angles that gives the smallest steric energy (the energy
due to the geometry or conformation of a molecule ). In
other words, bonds find a compromise among competing
forces to determine the lowest energy conformation.
The process of molecular mechanics to determine the
lowest energy conformation of a molecule is called energy
minimization.
The goal of energy minimization is to find a route
(consisting of variation of the intramolecular degrees of
freedom) from an initial confirmation to nearest minimum
energy conformation using the smallest energy possible.

Gunlugangmei
3. Energy minimization is also known as energy
optimization or geometry optimization.
Minimum energy arrangements of the atoms
corresponds to stable states of the system.
Any movement away from a minimum energy gives
us a configuration with higher energy.
10/10/2022 3
Gunlugangmei
4. The total steric energy of a molecule can be written as a sum of
the energies of the interactions:
Esteric energy = Estr + Ebend + Estr-bend + Eoop +
Etor+ EVdW + Eqq ….....(eqaution1)
The bond stretching, bending, stretch-bend, out of plane, and
torsion interactions are called bonded interactions because the
atoms involved must be directly bonded or bonded to a common
atom. The Van der Waals and electrostatic (qq) interactions are
between non-bonded atoms.
10/10/2022 4
Gunlugangmei
5. Estr represents the energy required to stretch or
compress a bond between two atoms, Figure 1
Estr=1/2ks,ij( rij-ro )2
Where,
ks,ij=stretching force constant for the bond
Rij =distance between the two atoms, Figure 1.
Ebend is the energy required to bend a bond from its
equilibrium angle, qo.
Ebend=1/2kb,ijk(qijk-qo)2(3)
Where,
kb,ijk=bending force constant and qijk= instantaneous
bond angle (Figure 2).
10/10/2022 5
Gunlugangmei
7. 3Estr-bend is the stretch-bend interaction energy that
takes into account the observation that when a bond is
bent, the two associated bond lengths increase (Figure
3).
Estr-bend =1/2ksb,ijk(rij-ro)(qijk-qo )(4).
where,
ksb,ijk=stretch-bend force constant for the bond between
atoms i and j with the bend between atoms i, j, and k.
4Eoop is the energy required to deform a planar group
of atoms from its equilibrium angle usually equal to
zero.
10/10/2022 7
Gunlugangmei
9. Eoop = 1/2 ko,ijkl ( wijkl - wo )2 (5)
where,
ko,ijkl=bending force constant
wijkl = instantaneous bond angle (Figure 4).
The out of plane term is also called the improper torsion in
some force fields. The oop term is called the improper torsion,
because like a dihedral torsion) the term depends on four
atoms, but the atoms are numbered in a different order. Force
fields differ greatly in their use of oop terms. Most force fields
use oop terms for the carbonyl carbon and the amide
nitrogen in peptide bonds, which are planar.

10. Torsional Interactions:
Etor is the energy of torsion needed to rotate about bonds.
Torsional
energies are usually important only for single bonds because
double and
triple bonds are too rigid to permit rotation.
Torsional interactions are modeled by the potential:
Etor = 1/2 ktor,1 (1 + cos Φ ) +1/2 ktor,2 (1 + cos 2 Φ ) + 1/2
ktor,3 ( 1 + cos 3 Φ ) (6)
where,
The angle Φ =the dihedral angle about the bond
The constants ktor,1, ktor,2 and ktor,3 =torsional constants for
one-fold,
two-fold and three-fold rotational barriers, respectively.
10/10/2022 10
Gunlugangmei
11. The three-fold term, that is the term in 3 Φ, is important for
sp3 hybridized systems(Figure 6a and b ).
The two-fold term, in 2 Φ, is needed for example in F-C-C-F
and sp2 hybridized systems, such as C-C-C=O and vinyl
alcohols.
The one-fold term in just f is useful for alcohols with the C-C-
OH
torsion, carbonyl torsions like C-C-C(carbonyl)-C, and the
central bond in
molecules such as butane that have C-C-C-C frameworks
(Figure 6c).

Gunlugangmei 11
13. Van der Waals interactions, which are responsible for the
liquefaction of non-polar gases like O2 and N2, also govern the
energy of interaction of non-bonded atoms within a molecule.
These interactions contribute to the steric interactions in
molecules and are often the most important factors in
determining the overall molecular conformation (shape).
Such interactions are extremely important in determining the
three-dimensional structure of many biomolecules, especially
proteins.
EVdW,ij =-A/rij6 + B/ rij12 (7)
10/10/2022 13
Gunlugangmei
14. where,
A and B= constants dependent upon the identities of the
two atoms involved
Rij = is the distance, in Angstroms, separating the
two nuclei.
This equation is also called the Lennard-Jones
potential.
Since, by definition, lower energy is more favourable, the
- A/r6 part is the attractive part and the + B/r12 part is
the repulsive part of the interaction.
Example For two hydrogen atoms in a molecule:
A = 70.38 kcal Å6
B = 6286. kcal Å12

15. A potential energy surface (PES) is a plot of the mathematical
relationship between the molecular structure and its energy.
All the minima on a potential energy surface of a molecule
represent stable stationary points where the forces on atoms sum
to zero. The global minimum represents the most stable
conformation; the local minima, less stable conformations; and the
saddle points represent transition conformations between minima.

16. DEFINITION:
It is the process of finding an arrangement in space of a
collection of atoms where, according to some computational
model of chemical bonding, the net interatomic force on
each atom is acceptably close to zero and the position on the
potential energy surface (PES) is at stationary point.
In short, it is the procedure that attempts to minimize the
potential energy of the system to the lowest possible point.
The systems makes every several changes in the atom
position through rotation and circulates energy in every
position .This process is repeated many times to find out
the position with lowest energy until an overall minimum
energy is attained.
10/10/2022 16
Gunlugangmei
17. In every move the energy is kept lowered, otherwise the atom
will return to its original position.
The one full round of an atom rotation is called minimization
step or iteration.
TECHNIQUES OF ENERGY MINIMIZATION (GEOMETRY
OPTIMIZATION):
1.Newton-Raphson method.
2.Steepest decent.
3.Conjugate gradient.
4.Adopted basis Newton-Raphson (ABNR).
10/10/2022 17
Gunlugangmei
18. The newton-raphson method is the most basic method among
the various methods of energy minimization.
The newton-raphson method is used for molecular orbital
calculations also.
Newton- raphson methods work faster in case of small
molecules such as strychnine. But, for larger molecules Newton
raphson is very slow.
( r₀ – r₁) = -1/d2Estr/Dr2(dEstr/dr)
where,
r=bond length
r₀=equilibrium bond length
d=derivatives
10/10/2022 18
Gunlugangmei
19. ( r₀ – r₁) = -1/Ɣ(dEstr/dr)
Where,
Ɣ=effective force constant
The method is name steepest Descent because the direction
in which the geometry is first minimized is opposite to the
direction in which the gradient is largest (i.e. steepest) at the
initial point.
The method is much faster than the Newton-Raphson method.
10/10/2022 19
Gunlugangmei
20. Conjugate gradient is a variation of the steepest descents
method.
The calculation of the gradient is improved by using
information from previous steps. After the first steepest
descents initial stage, a second steepest descents stage is taken
in a direction that is predicted to be optimal for minimizing the
remaining variables. This direction is called the conjugate
direction.
Pure steepest descents algorithms always take 90° turns after
each stage, which may move the first minimization stage away
from the optimal value.
The conjugate direction leaves the previous minimization at the
optimum value while finding an efficient direction to optimize
the remaining variables.
10/10/2022 20
Gunlugangmei
22. For very large systems like proteins and nucleic acids, energy
minimization can require hours. The search for very efficient
minimization methods for such large biological
macromolecules has led to a modified version of the Newton-
Raphson method that maintains excellent convergence
properties but in a much shorter time.
Each step of the ABNR method begins with a steepest
descents stage. Then the bond lengths and angles that
change the most are noted, and only these coordinates are
used in a second stage of Newton-Raphson minimization.
10/10/2022 22
Gunlugangmei
23. The number of minimization steps (iteration) can be use to stop
the methods.
An alternative method to stop the minimization is to compare the
change in energy in between the current step and the previous
step. If, the change in energy is below the set tolerance, then the
minimization is halted.
The last available criterion is the step size.
The size of the change in the coordinates is monitored and when
this change is smaller than the set tolerance, the minimization is
halted.
