Conformational energies of native ribonuclease A were computed in the multi-dimensional space of dihedral angles of the backbone and side chains. By mini-mization of the total energy starting from three sets of the angles, we obtainedthree low energy conformations, Cl, C2 and C3, which have almost the sameenergy, -644f4kca1/mol and are close to the experimental structure. In theneighborhood of Cl, we found a smooth energy surface with ellipsoidal energycontours. Cl, C2 and C3 were mutttally related with low energy paths in theconformational space. The results indicate that the protein molecule has flexi-bility inside the molecule which arises from the highly cooperative motion of theconstituent atoms. The low energy conformations found in this study account forthe characteristic features experimentally obtained.
