## Abstract A newly developed unbiased structural optimization method, named dynamic lattice searching (DLS), is proposed as an approach for conformational analysis of atomic/molecular clusters and used in understanding the energy landscape of large clusters. The structures of clusters are describe

Abstract
The evolution of our physicsβbased computational methods for determining protein conformation without the introduction of secondaryβstructure predictions, homology modeling, threading, or fragment coupling is described. Initial use of a hardβsphere potential captured much of the structural properties of polypeptide chains, and subsequent more refined force fields, together with efficient methods of global optimization provide indications that progress is being made toward an understanding of the interresidue interactions that underlie protein folding.

Energy landscapes of molecular recognition are explored by performing "semi-rigid" docking of FK-506 and rapamycin with the Fukisawa binding protein (FKBP-121, and flexible docking simulations of the Ro-31-8959 and AG-1284 inhibitors with HIV-1 protease by a genetic algorithm. The requirements of a
## Abstract Classical potential energy calculations have been made for the ribodinucleoside monophosphates ApA, CpC, GpG, and UpU. Van der Waal's, electrostatic, and torsional contributions to the energy were calculated, and the energy was minimized with the seven backbone conformational angles as
