## Abstract If constraints are imposed on a macromolecule, two inequivalent classical models may be used: the stiff and the rigid one. This work studies the effects of such constraints on the conformational equilibrium distribution (CED) of the model dipeptide HCOβLβAlaβNH~2~__without any simplifyi

## Abstract The conformational behavior of the title compounds has been investigated by HartreeβFock, MP2, and DFT computations on the most significant structures related to variations of the backbone dihedral angles, cis/trans isomerism around the peptide bond, and diastereoisomeric puckering of t
## Abstract We present multiple dynamic transition pathways on the twoβdimensional dihedral plane between conformational states of the alanine dipeptide. The method used in this study is dynamic importance sampling (DIMS). To perform DIMS, unbiased molecular dynamic simulations are used to generate
Molecular orbital calculations of the extended Hiickel type have been used to study the conformations of glycyl and alanyl residues in ground and excited states. The ground-state surfaces show features similar to those obtained with the standard calculational methods in which the total energy is par
## Abstract An integrated NMRβquantum mechanical (QM) approach, relying on the comparison between calculated and experimental __J__βvalues, was applied to the analysis of the relative configuration of four amino acid units (known as AGDHE, Dβ__a__Thr1, Dβ__a__Thr2 and Ξ²βOMeTyr) contained in callipe
