摘要
The resolution of the protein folding problem has been tied to the development of a detailed understanding of the configurational energy or of the free energy landscape associated with these molecules. Using the activation-relaxation technique and a simplified energy model, we present here a detailed analysis of the energy landscape of 16-residue peptide that folds into a beta-hairpin. Our results support the concept of an energy landscape with an effective topology consistent with a scale-free network.
