Folding Lennard-Jones proteins by a contact potential
Cecilia Clementi, Michele Vendruscolo, Amos Maritan +1
We studied the possibility to approximate a Lennard Jones interaction by a pairwise contact potential. First we used a Lennard-Jones potential to design off-lattice, protein-like h…

Protein Design is a Key Factor for Subunit-subunit Association
Cecilia Clementi, Paolo Carloni, Amos Maritan
Fundamental questions about the role of the quaternary structures are addressed using a statistical mechanics off-lattice model of a dimer protein. The model, in spite of its simpl…
