X Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the 2D hexagonal lattice as a biologically meaningful alternative to the standard square lattice for the study of protein folding in the HP model. We show that the hexagonal lattice alleviates the "sharp turn" problem and models certain aspects of the protein secondary structure more realistically. We present a 1/6-approximation and a clustering heuristic for protein folding on the hexagonal lattice. In addition to these two algorithms, we also implement a Monte Carlo Metropolis algorithm and a branch-and-bound partial enumeration algorithm, and conduct experiments to compare their effectiveness.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
