β¦ Synopsis
The use of microchemical methods for the characterization of both natural and recombinant proteins of biomedical importance is discussed. The methods include gel electrophoresis, high-performance liquid chromatography, protein fragmentation, amino acid analysis and automated Edman degradation. Each procedure is applicable at the picomole level.

## Abstract Two cyclic disulfideβbridged tetrapeptides [cyclo(BocβCysβProβAibβCysβOMe) and cyclo(BocβCysβProβPheβCysβOMe)] were prepared in high yield and purity. The use of doubleβwalled reaction flasks, which were attached to an external cryostat, gave perfect temperature control of the reaction.
A fast and reliable evaluation of the binding energy from a single conformation of a molecular complex is an important practical task. Knowledge-based scoring schemes may not be sufficiently general and transferable, while molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo calculations with explicit solvent are too
