A prediction of tertiary structures of peptide by the Monte Carlo simulated annealing method.
The Monte Carlo simulated annealing method has been applied to the prediction of three-dimensional structures of enkephalin. The low-energy conformations obtained were classified into a few groups of similar structures, which indicates that our method is effective. New low-energy structures were identified together with previously proposed structures.
