โฆ Synopsis
ลฝ
. We report the application of the adaptive simulated annealing ASA method as a global optimization approach to biomolecular structure determination, using ลฝ . the ECEPPr2 empirical conformation energy program for peptides potential energy form. As applied to Met-enkephalin, our optimization results in a conformation that is in agreement with other studies. In addition, a dominant ลฝ . right-handed โฃ-helical conformation is predicted for a 14-residue poly L-alanine model peptide in a limited search range. These results show that ASA is an efficient and robust algorithm for conformational analysis.

We apply a recently developed method, the multicanonical algorithm, to the problem of tertiary structure prediction of peptides and proteins. As a simple example to test the effectiveness of the algorithm, metenkephalin is studied and the ergodicity problem, or multiple-minima problem, is shown to b
Molecular dynamics simulations and simulated annealing in vacuum, model aqueous solution, and simulated membrane were used to analyze the conformational preferences of a segment spanning 20-29 residues of human islet amyloid polypeptide, [referred to as IAPP H (20-29)].

We describe in this article our solution to the global minimum problem which uses the simulated annealing algorithm of Kirkpatrick. This method is a Metropolis (e-AElkT) Monte Carlo sampling of conformation space with simultaneous constraint of the search by lowering the temperature T so that the se
