Structure and stability of helices in square-well homopolymers
M. N. Bannerman, J. E. Magee, L. Lue
Recently, it has been demonstrated [Magee et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 207802 (2006)] that isolated, square-well homopolymers can spontaneously break chiral symmetry and freeze int…
CaSPA - an Algorithm for Calculation of the Size of Percolating Aggregates
James E. Magee, Helen Dutton, Flor R. Siperstein
We present an algorithm (CaSPA) which accounts for the effects of periodic boundary conditions in the calculation of size of percolating aggregated clusters. The algorithm calculat…
Density of States for a Short Overlapping-Bead Polymer: Clues to a Mechanism for Helix Formation?
James E. Magee, Leo Lue, Robin A. Curtis
The densities of states are evaluated for very short chain molecules made up of overlapping monomers, using a model which has previously been shown to produce helical structure. Th…
Structure and Aggregation of a Helix-Forming Polymer
James E. Magee, Zhankai Song, Robin A. Curtis +1
We have studied the competition between helix formation and aggregation for a simple polymer model. We present simulation results for a system of two such polymers, examining the p…
Helical structures from an isotropic homopolymer model
James E. Magee, Victor R. Vasquez, Leo Lue
We present Monte Carlo simulation results for square-well homopolymers at a series of bond lengths. Although the model contains only isotropic pairwise interactions, under appropri…
Freezing and folding behavior in simple off-lattice heteropolymers
J. E. Magee, J. Warwicker, L. Lue
We have performed parallel tempering Monte Carlo simulations using a simple continuum heteropolymer model for proteins. All ten heteropolymer sequences which we have studied have s…
