The overexpression of the cysteine protease calpain is associated with many diseases, including brain trauma, spinal cord injury, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, muscular dystrophy, arthritis, and cataract. Calpastatin is the naturally occu

The sensitivity of aqueous solvation free energies (SFEs), estimated using the GB/SA continuum solvent model, on charge sets, protocols, and force fields, was studied. Simple energy calculations using the GB/SA solvent model were performed on 11 mono

A new free energy simulation method is described and applied to compute the relative binding free energies (enantioselectivity) of enantiomeric guests (2) for several chiral host molecules (1). The new simulation method is based on a previously descr

A new set of AMBER* parameters for proline-containing peptides is reported based on the results of high level ab initio calculations for a model proline dipeptide, 1. These new parameters correct a number of deficiencies in the previous parameters fo

We describe a method for locating clusters of geometrically similar conformers in ensembles of chemical conformations. We first calculate the pairwise interconformational distance matrix in either torsional or Cartesian space and then use an agglomer

The Diels-Alder cycloadditions of methyl acrylate to the unsymmetrical hexacyclo[10.2.1.02,11.04,14.09,13pentadecadienes 1b–f proceed with a high degree of π-facial stereoselectivity but only moderate regioselectivity. The results of fixed model t

Studies of 17 analoges of 3 (SJA6017) in an in silico calpain model are reconciled to measured IC(50) values against ovine calpain. The studies validate the potential of the "model" and criteria established for inhibition as a tool to select structur

A new version of the AMBER molecular mechanics force field which was modified to reproduce ab initio data on small peptides is tested against recent experimental data on the conformational properties of simple di- and triamides (1–7) in methylene c
