β-sheet containment by flanking prolines: Molecular Dynamic Simulations of the inhibition of β-sheet elongation by proline residues in human prion protein.

Previous molecular dynamic simulations have reported elongation of the existing β-sheet in prion proteins. Detailed examination has shown that these elongations do not extend beyond the proline residues flanking these β-sheets. In addition, proline has also been suggested to possess a possible str...
