Folding at the speed limit.

Nature - 8 May 2003

Yang Wei Yuan, Gruebele Martin

Abstract excerpt

Many small proteins seem to fold by a simple process explicable by conventional chemical kinetics and transition-state theory. This assumes an instant equilibrium between reactants and a high-energy activated state. In reality, equilibration occurs on timescales dependent on the molecules involve...
