Computer-based redesign of a protein folding pathway.

Abstract excerpt

A fundamental test of our current understanding of protein folding is to rationally redesign protein folding pathways. We use a computer-based design strategy to switch the folding pathway of protein G, which normally involves formation of the second, but not the first, beta-turn at the rate limiting step in folding. Backbone conformations and amino acid sequences that maximize the interaction density in the...
