摘要
We report results from all-atom Monte Carlo simulations of the 36-residue villin headpiece subdomain HP-36. Protein-solvent interactions are approximated by an implicit solvent model. The parallel tempering is used to overcome the problem of slow convergence in low-temperature protein simulations. Our results show that this technique allows one to sample native-like structures of small proteins and points out the need for improved energy functions. (C) 2003Wiley-Liss, Inc.
