Comparison of results for two types of starting structures¹

Starting Structure	100 steps	200 steps	2000 steps
Extended	1 min/3.38 Å/1.8%	2 min/3.35 Å/1.5%	20 min/3.34 Å/1.3%
'Close-by model'	1 min/3.36 Å/1.0%	2 min/3.35 Å/1.0%	20 min/3.34 Å/1.2%

¹Extended and 'close-by model' for 100 steps, 200 steps and 2000 steps for the same set of 1364 proteins. The numbers X/Y/Z denote time required (on a Desktop pc with 2 GB of RAM and 2.0 G Hz Intel processor) for the respective runs, RMSD to the native and the percentage of atoms that are involved in clashes less than 3.6 Å respectively.
