Beta-sheet containment by flanking prolines : molecular dynamic simulations of the inhibition of beta-sheet elongation by proline residues in human prion protein

Previous molecular dynamic simulations have reported elongation of the existing ß-sheet in prion proteins. Detailed examination has shown that these elongations do not extend beyond the proline residues flanking these ß-sheets. In addition, proline has also been suggested to possess a possible str...
