Abstract
Molecular Dynamics simulations have been carried out for 100 ps on crystal structure of β-cyclodextrin in vacuo and with explicit inclusion of solvent at constant pressure and constant temperature using the GROMOS MD algorithm, with a time step of 0.005 ps. The conformational space of the glycosidic linkage was studied by calculating two virtual dihedrals connecting the successive glucose units for the 2000 structures saved during the two simulations. Three preferred regions for α 1–4 glycosidic linkage were found in both the simulations. The use of these virtual dihedral angles in representing the glycosidic linkage is also brought out from these studies.
