(a) As described by Yu et al.16, full-atom chemical structure of AD, composed of a G2 dendron section and an aliphatic tail, having 18 carbons (n = 5), 15 carbons (n = 3) and 13 carbons (n = 1). (b) Full-atom chemical structure of AD composed of a G1 or G0 dendron section and an 18 carbons aliphatic tail (c) Structure of 18C tail-length AD using CG beads. (d) Mapping of dendron chemical groups, as described by Lee and Larson29,30. and CG C1 tail beads as described by Marrink et al.26, in the CG lipid force field.
