As Ewald approaches are known to overstabilize helices in periodic cells [22], long range electrostatic interactions were treated using the reaction field method [6,7,23] with a dielectric constant of 80, and 9 √Ö cutoffs imposed on all non-bonded interactions, which has proven highly successful in our previous studies of helical peptides [1,7,8,15,24].
