Structural and Energetic Heterogeneity in Protein Folding
Steven S. Plotkin, Jose N. Onuchic
A general theoretical framework is developed using free energy functional methods to understand the effects of heterogeneity in the folding of a well-designed protein. Native energ…
Topological and energetic factors: what determines the structural details of the transition state ensemble and "on-route" intermediates for protein folding? An investigation for small globular proteins
Cecilia Clementi, Hugh Nymeyer, Jose' Nelson Onuchic
Recent experimental results suggest that the native fold, or topology, plays a primary role in determining the structure of the transition state ensemble, at least for small fast f…
Order parametr for design of proteinlike heteropolymers
E. Nelson, L. Ten Eyck, J. Onuchic
preprint withdrawn. A revised version of this paper, with different authors appears in E. Nelson, P. Wolynes, and J. Onuchic, in Optimization in computational chemistry and molecul…
The Folding Funnel Landscape of the Peptide Met-enkephalin
U. H. E. Hansmann, Y. Okamoto, J. Onuchic
We study the free energy landscape of the small peptide Met-enkephalin. Our data were obtained from a generalized-ensemble Monte Carlo simulation taking the interactions among all…
