Protein folding is the physical process by which a protein chain is translated to its native three-dimensional structure, typically a "folded" conformation by which the protein becomes biologically ...

Protein structure and ... and highly reactive intermediates in a process known as enzyme–intermediate complementarity. The new focus on the protein folding problem, which includes a discussion ...

and if instead a protein must fold by a random search of all possible conformations, how long should the folding process take? Levinthal's answer 15 in 1968, longer than the lifetime of the ...

Protein folding has been an ongoing problem for researchers ... Technologies like the cryo-electron microscope make the process of mapping their structure easier, but it is still complex and ...
