Abstract

The Discretizable Molecular Distance Geometry Problem (DMDGP) aims to determine the three-dimensional protein structure using distance information from nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. The DMDGP has a finite number of candidate solutions and can be solved by combinatorial methods. We describe a quantum approach to the DMDGP by using Grover's algorithm with an appropriate oracle function, which is more efficient than classical methods that use brute force. We show computational results by implementing our scheme on IBM quantum computers with a small number of noisy qubits.
