General principles of protein structure, stability, and folding kinetics have recently been
explored in computer simulations of simple exact lattice models. These models represent …

This review will cover small-angle X-ray scattering of polymers, especially with the use of
synchrotron radiation. By nature, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) probes relatively large …

Dealing with all aspects of Monte Carlo simulation of complex physical systems encountered
in condensed matter physics and statistical mechanics, this book provides an introduction to …

Pulse field gradient NMR methods have been used to determine the effective hydrodynamic
radii of a range of native and nonnative protein conformations. From these experimental …

Structurally conserved residues at protein–protein interfaces correlate with the experimental
alanine-scanning hot spots. Here, we investigate the organization of these conserved …

Publisher Summary This chapter deals with the structure of the molten globules of various
globular proteins revealed by the recent experimental studies. Recent advances in …

We report a blind test of lattice-model-based search strategies for finding global minima of
model protein chains. One of us (EIS) selected 10 compact conformations of 48-mer chains …

The left‐handed polyproline II (PPII) helix gives rise to a circular dichroism spectrum that is
remarkably similar to that of unfolded proteins. This similarity has been used as the basis for …

The mechanism of protein folding is being investigated theoretically by the use of both
simplified and all-atom models of the polypeptide chain. Lattice heteropolymer simulations …

Combining a wide range of protein adsorption experiments (three globular proteins on eight
well-defined homogeneous surfaces) with Monte Carlo simulations of lattice proteins at …
