Abstract
The three-dimensional structures of two common repeat motifs Val$^1$-Pro$^2$-Gly$^3$-Val$^4$-Gly$^5$ and Val$^1$-Gly$^2$-Val$^3$-Pro$^4$-Gly$^5$-Val$^6$-Gly$^7$-Val$^8$-Pro$^9$ of tropoelastin are investigated by using the multicanonical simulation procedure. By minimizing the energy structures along the trajectory the thermodynamically most stable low-energy microstates of the molecule are determined. The structural predictions are in good agreement with X-ray diffraction experiments.
