Phase diagram of random heteropolymers.
We propose a new analytic approach to study the phase diagram of random heteropolymers, based on the cavity method. For copolymers we analyze the nature and phenomenology of the glass transition as a function of sequence correlations. Depending on these correlations, we find that two different scenarios for the glass transition can occur. We show that, beside the much studied possibility of an ...
متن کاملPhase Diagram of Random Heteropolymers: Replica Approach and Application of a New Monte Carlo Algorithm
In this contribution we study the phase diagram of the Random Bond Heteropolymer model, introduced ten years ago as a simplified model for Protein Folding. In its lattice version, only non-bonded monomers on neighboring sites interact. The interactions at each pair of neighbors are independent Gaussian variables. Two phase transitions are expected: the usual collapse transition and a freezing t...
متن کاملPhase Diagram of Heteropolymers with an Imprinted Conformation
Recently, theoretical models to employ physical interactions between monomers for the selection of appropriate heteropolymer sequences have been suggested. The Shakhnovich-Gutin model simulates the in vivo creation of natural proteins by molecular evolution. Our model suggests a method for the in vitro synthesis of heteropolymers which are “protein-like” in the sense that they have unique 3D fo...
متن کاملMechanical response of random heteropolymers
We present an analytical theory for heteropolymer deformation, as exemplified experimentally by stretching of single protein molecules. Using replica mean-field theory, we determine phase diagrams for stress-induced unfolding of typical random sequences. This transition is sharp in the limit of infinitely long chain molecules. However, for chain lengths relevant to biological macromolecules, pa...
متن کاملThe phase diagram of random threshold networks
Threshold networks are used as models for neural or gene regulatory networks. They show a rich dynamical behaviour with a transition between a frozen and a chaotic phase. We investigate the phase diagram of randomly connected threshold networks with real-valued thresholds h and a fixed number of inputs per node. The nodes are updated according to the same rules as in a model of the cell-cycle n...
