Primary source abstract: "Here, [investigators] show successful all-atom ab initio folding of a representative diverse set of proteins by using a minimalist transferable-energy model that consists of two-body atom-atom interactions, hydrogen bonding, and a local sequence-energy term that models sequence-specific chain stiffness. Starting from a random coil, the native-like structure was observed during replica exchange Monte Carlo (REMC) simulation for most proteins regardless of their structural classes, the lowest energy structure was close to native-in the range of 2-6 Å root-mean-square deviation (rmsd)." |
| Comments |
P.291 left column bottom paragraph: "Because native proteins are only 5–10 kcal/mol more stable than their denatured states, it is clear that no type of intermolecular force can be neglected in folding and structure prediction (primary source)." |
