This animation shows an early (ca. 1995) molecular dynamics simulation of thermal motion of a 12-residue alpha-helical poly-alanine peptide. Hydrogen atoms are missing in these models, except for hydrogens on the main chain nitrogens.
- Spacefilled ().
- .
- (out of 100; not animated).
In contrast to the above theoretical models, multiple conformations can be empirically determined by solution nuclear magnetic resonance. These differences between these models may represent either thermal motion, or a lack of sufficient data to restrain the model. An example is 2fxy, an 18-residue peptide for which 15 models were deposited.
- (sidechains hidden except beta carbons).
- (all atoms, sequence GPEASAFTKMVENAKKI).
- (all atoms).
- (main chain and beta carbons, not animated).
