(a) Initial (0ns) and (b) final (10ns) structures of the STMV protein monomers aggregating with RNA; [(c), (d)] same as (a) and (b) respectively, but for the expansion of free RNA in aqueous solution. These simulations are chosen to illustrate two contrasting scenarios of inter-subsystem interaction, and their effect on Langevin dynamics of the OPs. Random coil structure of the RNA in (a) is generated using the ROSETTA server, and the icosahedral symmetric form is extracted from its encapsidated state as also used in [9].
