## Abstract Monte‐Carlo calculations of geometric and thermodynamic characteristics of the α‐helix and the β‐structure of polypeptides have been carried out. To describe a hydrogen bond both the Lippincott–Schroeder and Morse potentials were used. The internal rotation angles φ and ψ in the α‐helix

## Abstract The thermodynamics of the DNA helix‐coil transition is studied, starting from the thermodynamical potential difference between the states helix and coil; this potential difference is understood as the difference in free energies. With only three parameters obtained from experimental dat

A comparison has been made of the intrachain potential energy of an infinite straight a-helix of poly-L-alanine with that of the distorted form adopted in a coiled coil conformation. The energy terms included were the van der Waal's, electrostatic, hydrogen-bond, and the rotational potential terms.
