Systems and methods for searching conformation space of a polymer to determine a three-dimensional conformation of the polymer that satisfies a performance metric is provided. The polymer comprises a plurality of domains and at least a first hinge. Initial three-dimensional coordinates of the polymer are altered by pivoting the first domain with respect to the second domain about the first hinge thereby obtaining an altered set of three-dimensional coordinates for the polymer. In this altering, atoms within the first domain are held fixed with respect to each other and atoms within the second domain are also held fixed with respect to each other. The altered set of coordinates is scored against a performance metric. Additional instances of the altering and scoring are performed, if necessary, until the altered set of three-dimensional coordinates satisfy the performance metric. |
