Abstract
We have investigated the conformational behaviour of salmon calcitonin bound to sodium dodecyl sulfate micelles by means of restrained molecular dynamics simulations with both ‘static’ and time-averagen NMR distance restraints. A more realistic picture of the inherent flexibility of the hormone is obtained when using time averaging. With this apprach. long-range NOEs are interpreted better considering a dynamical exchange among different conformations.
