Abstract excerpt
We explore the consequences of very high dimensionality in the dynamical landscape of protein folding. Consideration of both typical range of stabilizing interactions, and folding rates themselves, leads to a model of the energy hypersurface that is characterized by the structure of diffusive "hypergutters" as well as the familiar "funnels". Several general predictions result: 1), intermediate subspaces of...
