Lecture 09, Slide 005
Rotamers are low-energy conformations of side-chain dihedral angles. Only a small number of rotamer states and combinations are significantly populated in natural proteins. This tremendously simplifies protein structure modelling and prediction problems. However it also guides analysis, e.g. in enzyme active sites the rotamers often exist in strained, rare conformations.
