Reaction Mechanism of the PET Degrading Enzyme PETase Studied with DFT/MM Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Raw simulations of the deacylation step by PETase on a PET dimer model substrate, ran with CP2K 6.1 software at the PBE:AMBER level. Details can be found in the original manuscript (https://doi.org/10.1021/acscatal.1c03700): Molecular topology in AMBER Parameter Topology format and Trajectories in CHARMM binary coordinate format DCD.
