A modified version of stochastic tunneling, a recently introduced global optimization technique, is introduced as a new generalized-ensemble technique and tested for a benchmark peptide, Met-enkephalin. It is demonstrated that the new technique allows to evaluate folding properties and especially the glass temperature Tg of this peptide.
