The Molten Globule Concept: 45 Years Later

详细

In this review, we describe traditional systems where the molten globule (MG) state has been detected and give a brief description of the solution of Levinthal’s paradox. We discuss new results obtained for MG-mediated folding of “nontraditional” proteins and a possible functional role of the MG. We also report new data on the MG, especially the dry molten globule.
