Protein folding simulations with Interacting Growth Walk model

2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/18609We demonstrate that the recently proposed interacting growth walk (IGW) model, modified for generating self-avoiding heteropolymers, proves to be a simpler alternative to the other Monte Carlo methods available in the literature for obtaining minimum energy conformation of lattice proteins. In fact, this simple growth algorithm seems to be capable of quickly leading to low energy states for all the three dimensional bench mark HP-sequences investigated.4 pages RevTex file, 1 EPS figureStatistical MechanicsSoft Condensed MatterQuantitative BiologyProtein folding simulations with Interacting Growth Walk modeltext
