Abstract:
The Go model is extended to the case when the non-native contact energies may be either attractive or repulsive. The folding temperature is found to increase with the energy of non-native contacts. The repulsive non-native contact energies may lead to folding at T=0 for some unusual two-dimensional sequences and to reduction in complexity of disconnectivity graphs for local energy minima.
