A pre-existing hydrophobic collapse in the unfolded state of an ultrafast folding protein
Article Abstract:
A 'Trp-cage' miniprotein (TC5b) is used in the photochemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization NMR pulse-labelling experiments that involve rapid in situ protein refolding. It is shown that pre-formation of hydrophobically collapsed structures in the equilibrated unfolded state is very important in accelerating folding.

Kinetic redistribution of native and misfolded RNAs by a DEAD-box chaperone
Article Abstract:
The article demonstrates that the DExD/H-box protein CYT-19, a general RNA chaperone mediates ATP-dependent efficient unfolding of both the native and misfolded RNAs.
