Structure of the transition state for the folding/unfolding of the barley chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 and its implications for mechanisms of protein folding

The equilibrium and kinetics of folding of the single-domain protein chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 conform to the simple two-state model. The structure of the rate-determining transition state has been mapped out at the resolution of individual side chains by using the protein engineering method on 74 mu...
