Asunto: [AMBER] Great news!

Hi Everyone

The Amber developers' team is happy to announce a breakthrough that will
change the way we do simulations.

About one year ago, we started building an Amber-specific quantum
computer (QAMBER) in the basement of Jason Swails' home, making use of
the low temperatures in Pennsylvania. Last weekend we finally had a
working port of Amber.

Our first test was to create the full sequence of a ribosome a big water
box. We saw the ribosome fold and assemble itself in a matter of seconds !

We then got greedy, and added some mRNA and some loose aminoacids. We
saw spontaneous translation of that mRNA into a protein, which proceeded
to fold itself into the correct structure.

We are still discussing exactly what water/ions model is best, but we
feel this is a breakthrough worth celebrating as a community.

Donations towards Jason's electric bill for the superconducting magnets
are welcome.


Adrian
