The folded native state of a globular protein is noted to be marginally stabilized over the structureless unfolded state by various atomic/group interactions. Quantitative enumeration of these factors remains to be a difficult task to workers in the field. In this work we collect experimental inform

## Abstract Mapping the conformational space of a polypeptide onto a network of conformational states involves a number of subjective choices, mostly in relation to the definition of conformation and its discrete nature in a network framework. Here, we evaluate the robustness of the topology of con
Using potential energy formulas for variation of bond angles and for w-distortion, the conformation of minimum energy for the cis form of the petide unit has been worked out. This agrees very well with the corresponding set of atoms in the crystal structure of Leu-Pro-Gly and the dimensions of a sta
