Folding molecular dynamics simulations accurately predict the effect of mutations on the stability and structure of a vammin-derived peptide.

Abstract excerpt

Folding molecular dynamics simulations amounting to a grand total of 4 μs of simulation time were performed on two peptides (with native and mutated sequences) derived from loop 3 of the vammin protein and the results compared with the experimentally known peptide stabilities and structures. The simulations faithfully and accurately reproduce the major experimental findings and show that (a) the native peptide is...
