Abstract
Protein design is a burgeoning new field of structural molecular biology, which entails selecting sequences of amino acids to fold into a desired pre-determined structure. The authors present a quantitative methodology for the de novo design of proteins as well as supporting algorithms, including a massively parallel simulated annealing optimization method. With these algorithms it is possible to choose sequences which should adopt an arbitrary plausible structure
