This is the initital
configuration of a small sample protein (trp-cage). This all atom
representation is reduced to a coarser representation by merging some
atoms to pseudo atoms.
|
|
The resulting structure of
the next coarser level is transferred to the all atom representation and
again minimized. The result represents a single step of the global
minimization algorithm.
|
|
This coarsening procedure
is repeated once.
|
|
The minimized structure of
the coarsest level is expanded to the next finer level. Here, local
minimization leads to a refinement of the configuration.
|
|
On the coarsest level the
protein is represented by only a few pseudo atoms.
|
|
Local Minimization on this
level already leads to a packed configuration.
