✦ Synopsis


As part of the CASP2 protein structure prediction experiment, a set of numerical criteria were defined for the evaluation of ''ab initio'' predictions. The evaluation package comprises a series of electronic submission formats, a submission validator, evaluation software, and a series of scripts to summarize the results for the CASP2 meeting and for presentation via the World Wide Web (WWW). The evaluation package is accessible for use on new predictions via WWW so that results can be compared to those submitted to CASP2. With further input from the community, the evaluation criteria are expected to evolve into a comprehensive set of measures capturing the overall quality of a prediction as well as critical detail essential for further development of prediction methods. We discuss present measures, limitations of the current criteria, and possible improvements. Proteins, Suppl.

To generate structures consistent with both the local and nonlocal interactions responsible for protein stability, 3 and 9 residue fragments of known structures with local sequences similar to the target sequence were assembled into complete tertiary structures using a Monte Carlo simulated annealin

## Abstract In crystal structure predictions possible structures are usually ranked according to static energy. Here, this criterion has been replaced by the free energy at any temperature. The effects of harmonic lattice vibrations were found by standard lattice‐dynamical calculations, including a
