2016 journal article

Computational insights into the destabilization of alpha-helical conformations formed by leucine zipper peptides in response to temperature

PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY CHEMICAL PHYSICS, 18(36), 25465–25473.

By: X. Xu*, X. Xiao n, S. Xu* & H. Liu*

TL;DR: Analysis of conformation and energy of the folded peptides showed that the increase of temperature gives rise to a notable decrease in the number of intra-chain hydrogen bonds and a significant increase in the potentialenergy of the peptides, thereby reducing the folding stability of the two peptides.
