Molecular dynamics simulations based on AMBER force fields(ff96 and ff03) and generalized Born models(igb1 and igb5) have been carried out in order to study folding/unfolding of the Trp-cage mini-protein TC5b.The ther...
We have performed molecular dynamics simulations on the reversible folding/unfolding of small α-helix(short Ala based peptide Ala5) in explicit water solvent in terms of ABEEMσπ/MM.A dynamics analysis shows that t...
