Folding of small proteins: A matter of geometry?

P. F. N. Faisca, M. M. Telo da Gama

We review some of our recent results obtained within the scope of simple lattice models and Monte Carlo simulations that illustrate the role of native geometry in the folding kinet…

Native geometry and the dynamics of protein folding

P. F. N. Faisca, M. M. Telo da Gama

In this paper we investigate the role of native geometry on the kinetics of protein folding based on simple lattice models and Monte Carlo simulations. Results obtained within the…

The Go model revisited: Native structure and the geometric coupling between local and long-range contacts

P. F. N. Faisca, M. M. Telo da Gama, A. Nunes

Monte Carlo simulations show that long-range interactions play a major role in determining the folding rates of 48-mer three-dimensional lattice polymers modelled by the Go potenti…

Folding and form: Insights from lattice simulations

P. F. N. Faisca, M. M. Telo da Gama, R. C. Ball

Monte Carlo simulations of a Miyazawa-Jernigan lattice-polymer model indicate that, depending on the native's structure geometry, the model exhibits two broad classes of folding me…

Topological complexity, contact order and protein folding rates

P. F. N. Faisca, R. C. Ball

Monte Carlo simulations of protein folding show the emergence of a strong correlation between the relative contact order parameter, CO, and the folding time, t, of two-state foldin…

Thermodynamic control and dynamical regimes in protein folding

P. F. N. Faisca, R. C. Ball

Monte Carlo simulations of a simple lattice model of protein folding show two distinct regimes depending on the chain length. The first regime well describes the folding of small p…
