Abstract

We study folding algorithms in the two-dimensional Hydrophobic-<br />Hydrophilic model (2D HP model) for protein structure formation. We<br />consider three generalizations of the best known approximation algorithm.<br />We show that two of the generalizations do not improve the worst<br />case approximation ratio. The third generalization seems to be better,<br />and the analysis of its approximation ratio leads to an interesting combinatorial<br />problem.
