Abstract

Calculating and optimizing the minimum energy pathway of a conformational or chemical transition is important to understanding its behavior. In this review, we summarize double-ended transition state search methods, focusing on chain-of-states methods such as nudged elastic band and string method. Optimization of the paths and application to biological and chemical problems will also be discussed.
