Subject: MC moveset rules

Hi,

I'd like to do some monte carlo simulations of proteins.
All the P-chem books I've found say that you have a lot
of latitude in choosing movesets for MC simulations. 

But there have to be *some* rules.  A moveset that caused
the structure to jump between only two different conformations
wouldn't give you a realistic distribution, for example.

Does anyone know what the rules are?  Can anyone suggest a
good reference that describes them?
