Common motifs and topological effects in the protein folding transition state.

Abstract excerpt

Through extensive experiment, simulation, and analysis of protein S6 (1RIS), we find that variations in nucleation and folding pathway between circular permutations are determined principally by the restraints of topology and specific nucleation, and affected by changes in chain entropy. Simulations also relate topological features to experimentally measured stabilities. Despite many sizable changes in phi values...
