Conformational Energy Studies of Oxytocin and Its Cyclic Moiety
TL;DR: The oxytocin molecule appears to be flexible, and is probably sensitive to changes in its environment, and the existence of several low-energy minima in the energy surface.

The effect of solutes on the structure of water and its implications for protein structure
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the recent developments in their understanding of the structure of water and the influence of nonpolar solutes on the stability of aqueous solutions.

On the information content of protein sequences.
S. Rackovsky,Harold A. Scheraga +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the folding of proteins is a direct consequence of a narrow band of stoichiometric occurrences of amino acids in primary sequences, and this result represents a protein version of the Chargaff rules which have long been known to govern nucleic acid folding.
