Proteins are important molecules that perform a variety of functions essential to life. To function properly, many proteins must fold into specific structures. However, the way proteins fold into ...

A new statistical model demonstrates the ability to correctly predict the folding mechanisms for both small and large proteins. The function of a protein is determined by its structure. From the rigid ...

For most proteins, we model the folding process as if there are two states, folded or unfolded. When we track the progression of a protein from unfolded to folded, we see a characteristic ...
