Downhill versus two-state protein folding in a statistical mechanical model
P. Bruscolini, A. Pelizzola, M. Zamparo
The authors address the problem of downhill protein folding in the framework of a simple statistical mechanical model, which allows an exact solution for the equilibrium and a semi…
Rate Determining Factors in Protein Model Structures
Pierpaolo Bruscolini, Alessandro Pelizzola, Marco Zamparo
Previous research has shown a strong correlation of protein folding rates to the native state geometry, yet a complete explanation for this dependence is still lacking. Here we stu…
Protein mechanical unfolding: a model with binary variables
A. Imparato, A. Pelizzola, M. Zamparo
A simple lattice model, recently introduced as a generalization of the Wako--Saitô model of protein folding, is used to investigate the properties of widely studied molecules under…
