abstract = {We study a monocyclic peptide called cAPB, whose
conformations are light switchable due to the covalent
integration of an azobenzene dye. Molecular dynamics (MD)
simulations using the CHARMM22 force field and its CMAP
extension serve us to sample the two distinct conformational
ensembles of cAPB, which belong to the cis and trans isomers
of the dye, at room temperature. For gaining sufficient
statistics we apply a novel replica exchange technique. We
find that the well-known NMR distance restraints are much
better described by CMAP than by CHARMM22. In cAPB, the
ultrafast cis/trans photoisomerization of the dye elicits a
relaxation dynamics of the peptide backbone. Experimentally,
we probe this relaxation at picosecond time resolution by IR
spectroscopy in the amide I range up to 3 ns after the
UV/vis pump flash. We interpret the spectroscopically
identified decay kinetics using ensembles of non-equilibrium
MD simulations, which provide kinetic data on conformational
transitions well matching the observed kinetics. Whereas
spectroscopy solely indicates that the relaxation toward the
equilibrium trans ensemble is by no means complete after 3
ns, the 20 ns MD simulations of the process predict,
independently of the applied force field, that the final
relaxation into the trans-ensemble proceeds on a time scale
of 23 ns. Overall our explicit solvent simulations cover
more than 6 micros.},
