We describe a methodology to calculate the relative free energies of protein-peptide complex formation. The interaction energy was decomposed into nonpolar, electrostatic and entropic contributions. A free energy-surface area relationship served to calculate the nonpolar free energy term. The electr

โฆ Synopsis
A method that locates transition state structures between homologous reactions and, with the use of the thermodynamic cycle-perturbation technique, determines the relative free energy of activation between the transition states is presented. A simple model system which displays the problem of finding condensed phase transition states is used to illustrate the method.
