The test sequences were selected to represent a wide range of folding behavior in water: compact helix, strand mimetic geometry, and the state of disorder. The combination AMBER ff03-TIP3P successfully predicted the experimentally observed conformational properties and reproduced the NOE distances and backbone (3)J coupling data at a good level. GAFF was unable to produce folded structures correctly due to its biased torsion potentials. We can recommend AMBER ff03-TIP3P for simulations involving beta-peptide sequences in aqueous media including ordered and disordered structures.}, year = {2014}, eissn = {1549-960X}, pages = {2776-2783}, orcid-numbers = {Hegedüs, Zsófia/0000-0002-5546-8167; Martinek, Tamás/0000-0003-3168-8066} }
