Abstract excerpt
An off-lattice 46-bead model of a small all-beta protein has been recently criticized for possessing too many traps and long-lived intermediates compared with the folding energy landscape predicted for real proteins and models using the principle of minimal frustration. Using a novel sequence design approach based on threading for finding beneficial mutations for destabilizing traps, we proposed three new...
