Functionalized nanoparticles (NPs) are at the frontier of nanoscience. They hold the promise of innovative applications for human health and technology. In this context, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of NPs are increasingly employed to understand the fundamental structural and dynamical features of NPs. While informative, such simulations demand a laborious two-step process for their setup. In-house scripts are required to (i) construct complex 3D models of the inner metal core and outer layer of organic ligands, and (ii) correctly assign force-field parameters to these composite systems. Here, we present NanoModeler ( www.nanomodeler.it ), the first Webserver designed to automatically generate and parametrize model systems of monolayer-protected gold NPs and gold nanoclusters. The only required input is a structure file of one or two ligand(s) to be grafted onto the gold core, with the option of specifying homogeneous or heterogeneous NP morphologies. NanoModeler then generates 3D models of the nanosystem and the associated topology files. These files are ready for use with the Gromacs MD engine, and they are compatible with the AMBER family of force fields. We illustrate NanoModeler's capabilities with MD simulations of selected representative NP model systems. NanoModeler is the first platform to automate and standardize the construction and parametrization of realistic models for atomistic simulations of gold NPs and gold nanoclusters.
