Replica-exchange molecular dynamics method for protein folding

TL;DR: In this article, a replica-exchange method was proposed to overcome the multiple-minima problem by exchanging non-interacting replicas of the system at several temperatures, which allows the calculation of any thermodynamic quantity as a function of temperature in that range.

THEORY OF PROTEIN FOLDING: The Energy Landscape Perspective

TL;DR: The energy landscape theory of protein folding suggests that the most realistic model of a protein is a minimally frustrated heteropolymer with a rugged funnel-like landscape biased toward the native structure.

Multidimensional replica-exchange method for free-energy calculations

TL;DR: A new simulation algorithm for free-energy calculations that greatly enhances the sampling of the conformational space and allows accurate calculations of free energy in a wide temperature range from a single simulation run, using the weighted histogram analysis method.

Generalized-ensemble algorithms for molecular simulations of biopolymers.

TL;DR: Three new generalized-ensemble algorithms that combine the merits of the multicanonical algorithm, simulated tempering, and replica-exchange method are presented, which are tested with short peptide systems.
