The WW domain of the human Pin1 protein for its simple topology and large amount of experimental data is an ideal candidate to assess theoretical approaches to protein folding. The purpose of this work is to compare the reliability of the chemically based Sorenson/Head-Gordon (SHG) model and a standard native centric model in reproducing, through molecular dynamics simulations, some of the well known features of the folding transition of this small domain. Our results show that the Gō model corr ...[more]
