Connecting conformational stiffness of the protein with energy landscape by a single experiment

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: A decrease in protein step-size is observed upon increasing the salt concentration in single-molecule magnetic tweezers, which is correlated to molecular compaction in a protein polymer. This compaction mechanism promotes a rapid protein folding.
