Abstract

A methodological study has been undertaken to assess the conformational profile of Neuromedin B (NMB) using classical molecular dynamics simulations (MD) and replica exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) simulations under generalized Born (GB) solvent conditions. Comparison of the results obtained from these simulations suggests that the peptide has a propensity to adopt both β-turns and α-helical conformations regardless of the simulation protocols used. However, the conformations adopted more helical character under REMD conditions and showed good agreement with the NMR supported structure reported in the literature.
