Abstract

We investigated the free energy landscapes of a highly structured beta-hairpin peptide (MBH12) and a less structured peptide with a single mutation of Tyr6 to Asp6 (MBH10). For the free energy mapping, starting from an extended conformation, the replica exchange molecular dynamic simulations for two beta-hairpins were performed using a modified version of an all-atom force field employing an implicit solvation (param99MOD5/GBSA). With the present simulation approach, we demonstrated that detailed stability changes associated with the sequence modification from MBH12 to MBH10 are quantitatively well predicted at the all-atom level.
