Folding, dynamics and interaction studies of the Neuropeptide Y family.
… of the neuropeptide Y family. The formation of secondary structures is one of the most fundamental processes in protein folding. To obtain a detailed understanding of protein folding it is useful to study peptide models that provide well defined stable structures in solution. NPY and PYY are …

Structural characterization of spider coating petide [i.e., peptide] 1 and 2 of the black widow spider, Latrodectus hesperus
… that SCP-1 and SCP-2 display predominantly alpha-helical secondary structures. In temperature gradient studies, SCP-1 is structurally stable at high temperatures while SCP-2 unfolded and lost its alpha-helical structure. The two peptides remained structurally stable both in an acidic and basic …

Improving of the accuracy and efficiency of implicit solvent models in Biomolecular Modeling
… Modeling such as an over- stabilization of alpha helical secondary structures and salt bridges. In this dissertation we present two new GB models aimed at computing solvation properties with a reasonable compromise between accuracy and speed. The first GB model, called NSR6, is based on a …
