We are now entering the era of whole-cell simulations. Together with the group of Zan Luthey-Schulten we already modeled an entire cell (JCVI-Syn3a) at the Martini level of resolution. Featuring more than 60,000 proteins, millions of lipids and metabolites, 500 ribosomes and a 500 kbp circular dsDNA, more than 500 million CG beads in total.
