One of the most important questions in the protein folding problem is whether secondary structures are formed entirely by local interactions. One way to answer this question is to compare identical subsequences of proteins to see if they have identical structures. Such an exercise would also reveal
The average contribution of conformational entropy for individual amino acid residues towards the free energy of protein folding is not well understood. We have developed empirical scales for the loss of the main-chain (torsion angles, and ) conformational entropy by taking its side-chain into accou
