Through parameter scans we explore simple foldamer hypotheses and present several instances of emergent secondary structure in several CG models. We first discuss the model parameters available in cg_pyrosetta, details of cg_pyrosetta's implementation, the MC minimization algorithm used in this work and the analysis workflow we developed to identify folded structures. Following this, we share results of several folded structures from a variety of CG models and two preliminary parameter scans based on hypotheses about foldamer stability. The first parameter scan varies the side chain R min and bond-length parameters to explore effects of side chain size on foldamer secondary structure and the second scan varies backbone bond angles (θ B ) to explore effects of local monomer geometry on foldamer secondary structure. We conclude with remarks of how cg_pyrosetta can be used in further investigations of foldamers.
