摘要
The molecular dynamics trajectories of protein folding or unfolding, generated with the coarse-grained united-residue force field for the B domain of staphylococcal protein A, were analyzed by principal component analysis (PCA). The folding or unfolding process was examined by using free-energy landscapes (FELs) in PC space. By introducing a novel multidimensional FEL, it was shown that the low-dimensional FELs are not always sufficient for the description of folding or unfolding processes. Similarities between the topographies of FELs along low- and high-indexed principal components were observed.
