Protein Folding and Machine Learning: Fundamentals

Walter A. Simmons

In spite of decades of research, much remains to be discovered about folding: the detailed structure of the initial (unfolded) state, vestigial folding instructions remaining only…

Protein Folding Problem: Scientific Basics

Walter A. Simmons

The protein folding problem is stated and a list of properties that do not depend upon specific molecules is compiled and analyzed. The relationship of this analysis to future simu…

Topology, Geometry, and Stability: Protein Folding and Evolution

Walter Simmons, Joel L. Weiner

The protein folding problem must ultimately be solved on all length scales from the atomic up through a hierarchy of complicated structures. By analyzing the stability of the foldi…

The Principle of Stationary Action in Biophysics: Stability in Protein Folding

Walter Simmons, Joel L. Weiner

Processes that proceed reliably from a variety of initial conditions to a unique final form, regardless of moderately changing conditions, are of obvious importance in biophysics.…

Toward a Theory on the Stability of Protein Folding: Challenges for Folding Models

Walter Simmons, Joel L. Weiner

We adopt the point of view that analysis of the stability of the protein folding process is central to understanding the underlying physics of folding. Stability of the folding pro…

Physics of Caustics and Protein Folding: Mathematical Parallels

Walter Simmons, Joel L. Weiner

The energy for protein folding arises from multiple sources and is not large in total. In spite of the many specific successes of energy landscape and other approaches, there still…
