Özet

Residue length dependency of conformational transition of Vall - Pro2 - Gly3 - Val4 - Gly5 known as clastin polypeptidc is investigated by using multicanonical Monte Carlo (MCA) method. By extending the residue length, change in the thermodynamical quantites is indicated in an implicit solvation model (SCH2). Strong residue length dependency is observed in thermodynamical quantities
